IT'S AN HOUR after the Miami Heat shocked the basketball world, taking a 2-0 lead over the Boston Celtics in the Eastern Conference finals. And Jimmy Butler, who just scored 27 points in 41 grueling minutes is ... singing. As he walks to the postgame podium, inside a makeshift conference room in the belly of Boston's TD Garden, country music singer Morgan Wallen's "Somebody's problem" blares from a speaker attached to the Heat star's phone.
Somebody's problem, but that ain't minnnnnne, Butler croons.
As he breaks down the game, and his heated, forehead-to-forehead exchange with Celtics forward Grant Williams, after which he led the Heat on a game-winning 22-9 run, Butler pivots, and acknowledges the unique song playing from his phone.
