No one knows who Jimmy “Buter” is.
Jimmy Butler only got to play with the Philadelphia 76ers for one season but his impact was immediately felt. He was a huge part their fensive success this past season and helped them get to the second round the playfs where they were a buzzer beater away from knocking f the Toronto Raptors. Heading into the fseason, it was unknown as to whether or not Butler would come back to the squad. In the end, he was a part a sign-and-trade deal with the Miami Heat. Miami certainly fits Butler’s personality and he’s already starting to fit in.
Over the weekend, the 76ers took to Twitter to thank Butler for his season and sure enough, they completely spelled his name wrong. Instead calling him Jimmy Butler, they called him “Jimmy Buter.” The 76ers were immediately roasted for this error and ended up taking down their post. They eventually reposted the same graphic except his name was spelled properly this time around.
As usual, Twitter did their thing and came through with a plethora memes poking fun at the 76ers and their lack spell check. Butler probably doesn’t care too much though, he’s about to get paid and play in Miami on top that. If I had that kind life, they could spell my name wrong all day.
