Oladipo & Butler Clown Skip Bayless Over His 'Jimmy Hates Victor' Report

April 25, 2022

Victor Oladipo finally got some run in the Miami Heat's opening round playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks, and he came through with a resounding +28 plus/minus in Miami's 110-86 win to take a commanding 3-1 series lead. 

Oladipo had been pinned to the bench for the entirety of the first three games of this season, prompting Fox Sports' mouthpiece Skip Bayless to suggest that Butler has a "personal problem" with Oladipo and told Heat coach Erik Spoelstra not to play him.  

Oladipo played 23 minutes in Game 4; they needed him with Kyle Lowry out. 
After Sunday's Game 4 win, as Butler walked to the postgame podium to follow Oladipo, Jimmy said "Tell them how much I hate you."
"Jimmy hates me, guys." The two then hugged.

Oladipo replied into the microphone, "Jimmy hates me, guys... That was a cute one." The two then laughed and exchanged a hug. 

Butler apparently recruited Oladipo to come to Miami in the first place; however, Jimmy Buckets has certainly been known to have his relationships with teams and teammates go sour in the past. 

“I’m used to it. I’m always the bad guy," Butler told Heat beat writer Brady Hawk. "That’s okay. Bad guys are welcome here in the Miami Heat organization. I love my guys.”

The two even posted each other on their IG stories Monday morning, as if to prove there's no beef.
