Hard! Refusing to apologize to Butler!

Respond to the transaction for the first time

Riley refused to apologize

I still remember that after Butler was traded to the Warriors, the Heat and the Warriors had two situations. It is precisely because of this that Butler's value continues to improve. The Heat bears many infamous, and Riley, who was named the fuse, was also scolded on the hot search.

As time goes by, the original view has not been overturned, and today, Riley responds to this for the first time.

Today, the Heat CEO Riley attended the final summary conference. When talking about Butler, he admitted that losing Butler was a huge loss. Riley said: There is no doubt that Jimmy's departure has had a huge impact on our team. The responsibility lies with me. If you want to find someone to take responsibility, you should find me.

This season, Butler was suspended by the Heat three times and was eventually traded to the Warriors in February.

Then, Riley changed his mind and said: But in the past year and a half, the situation has become very different. He was injured and absent against Philadelphia, and then the performance this season, so I will not apologize for not renewing his contract. We have no obligation, and I don't think I should apologize.

Then, Riley also talked about the topic of "shut up" and said: If I were still a coach, I would always say to the players: "shug up." See you in training camp after you return to the court. But now the players' situation is very different from before.

Finally, Riley added: It's all over. The dust settles. I wish him all the best. I also hope that in a corner of his heart, I can bless us.

In fact, Riley doesn't need to be self-indulgent, maybe Butler has already let it go.

From a point of view, Riley is difficult to convince. Butler was injured and his teammate was eliminated. As the core of the team, he said a word to boost morale. Before he could even be ridiculed by netizens and opponents, he was criticized by his own management. Who can accept this? There is no one else in this wave of operations except Riley.

This season, the Heat ranked tenth in the East and entered the playoffs as the No. 8 seed through the playoffs, but were swept by the Cavaliers. They lost with a huge difference of 37 points and 55 points respectively in the last two games.

Riley turns 80 in March this year, and is about to play for the Heat, but has no plans to retire. In this regard, he said: I just turned 80, and I am deeply proud of it. 80 is the new 60 years old, that's what I think. I feel good and my desire to win is still strong.

In this regard, some fans analyzed that they are still unwilling to retire at the age of 80 and still hold great power. It can be seen that Riley is an extreme desire for power. It's not surprising that this is true. Butler was traded.
