The Boston Celtics easily dispatched the Miami Heat in the first round of the NBA playoffs, winning the series four games to one and outscoring the Heat by a total of 78 points in the series.
This hasn’t stopped Miami Heat star Jimmy Butler from blasting the Celtics in a video that emerged on Saturday.
Butler did not play in the series due to injury.

“If I was playing, Boston would be at home. New York Damn sure would be at home”
“Thibs, you want me, I don’t want to beat you but I love you”
Butler’s confidence didn’t stop social media from roasting him.

It’s hard to think that Butler would have made such an impact that the gap in scoring margin would have closed so significantly in the series.
The Celtics are getting ready to take on the winner of the Orlando Magic and Cleveland Cavaliers series.
The Celtics are currently the overwhelming favorites to represent the Eastern Conference in the NBA Finals as they are listed at -265 to win the East by DraftKings Sportsbook.
