The Miami Heat don’t want to extend Jimmy Butler.

Jimmy Butler feels he’s worth an extension or a trade from the Miami Heat.

And what’s more, there are still wounds yet to be healed from Pat Riley to Jimmy Butler, and all this has come to a head over the last few days.

Sounds simple enough, right?

Butler has communicated to the Heat he would like a change of scenery, sources told Yahoo Sports. His first choice in all of this was to stay with the Heat with a contract extension in hand, but Riley has given no indication he’s willing to do that.
