Moments before Jimmy Butler was handed a Golden State Warriors jersey for the first time, he made clear what his motivation is going forward.

If the Miami Heat plan to wash their hands with Jimmy Butler, they must do so before the upcoming Feb. 6 trade deadline. Swapping their disgruntled superstar for a thriving Denver Nuggets wing may be the most logical move for the franchise.

For Butler, that is trying to win his first championship with the Warriors and proving they were right to pursue and extend him. For the Heat, that’s finding the next guy to wrap the cape of #HeatCulture around, and let Butler know he was just another player for an organization that always finds a way to be successful.
