 loving what Jimmy's doing. 

here's jimmy's back story: 

Before the 2011 draft, one NBA  general manager  said about Butler, "His story is one of the most remarkable I've seen in all my years of basketball. There were so many times in his life where he was set up to fail. Every time, he overcame just enormous odds. When you talk to him — and he's hesitant to talk about his life — you just have this feeling that this kid has greatness in him."[sup][1][/sup]

Butler's father abandoned the family when he was an infant. By the time he was 13 years old and living in the Houston suburb of Tomball, his mother kicked him out of the house. As Butler remembered it in a 2011 interview, she told him, "I don't like the look of you. You gotta go." He then bounced between the homes of various friends, staying for a few weeks at a time before moving on to another house.[sup][1][/sup]

In a summer basketball league before his senior year at Tomball High School, he was noticed by Jordan Leslie, a freshman football and basketball player at the school, who challenged him to a three-point shooting  contest. The two immediately became friends, and Butler began staying at Leslie's house. Although his friend's mother and stepfather, who had six other children between them, were reluctant at first, they took him in within a few months. Butler would later say, "They accepted me into their family. And it wasn't because of basketball. She [Michelle Lambert, Leslie's mother] was just very loving. She just did stuff like that. I couldn't believe it.[sup][1][/sup]
 
Hell of a game.
I like how that last unit on the court was eager to play and score with only a minute left and a large lead.
 
loss is funny to me b/c dad and I were just discussing the remaining schedule and he said count on them splitting the back to backs. after we won I had the bitter beer face knowing we would play like crap to WAS.
 
Hey guys way to long since Ive checked into this thread been way too busy at work 100 hrs last week.

Cant believe we lost to the wizards last night.
 
Noah did good almost had a triple double, he had 18 rebounds. Jimmy Butler did it again. Good play by everyone. 
 
With the  commercials, the bulls being secretive, and the Bulls doing really good, it makes Derrick's return feel much more dramatic.

Adidas might as well do a count down with commercials right before he comes back.

Apparently he's dunking off vert... I wonder what his speed, quickness, & cutting is like.

Not sure where he is, but I imagine that's a huge mental hurdle for him in terms of trusting his knee even in drills.
