Jimmy Butler ‘Didn’t Know Who The F*** Was In Charge’ During Sixers Tenure

Jimmy Butler is opening up about his decision to leave the 76ers … admitting he felt like he had no idea what was going on or “who the f*** was in charge.”

Butler’s time in Philly was short and had its fair share of drama … and now the 30-year-old is explaining to ‘The JJ Redick Podcast’ what was so challenging for him last season.

“Hell yeah, it was difficult. It was so different,” Butler told his old teammate. “And, on any given day, me as a person and as a player, I didn’t who the f*** was in charge.”

“I think that was my biggest thing. I didn’t know what the f*** to expect whenever I would go into the gym, whenever I go into the plane, whenever I got into the game.”

“I think I was as lost as the next motherf***er.”

Butler explains his frustrations stemmed from so many voices trying to be heard … and meetings where “nothing got accomplished at all.”

The now-Miami Heat star — who signed a 4-year, $141 million deal this off-season — shares the moment he knew he’d leave … saying someone had asked if he could be “controlled” if he stayed in Philly.

“I was like, ‘You don’t got to worry about it. Sh*t, can’t nobody f***ing control me.’”

“For one, I ain’t just out there doing no bullsh*t. But, the fact that you’re trying to control a grown man? Nah, I’m cool. ‘Cause I don’t do nothing that’s just drastically f***ing stupidly crazy. I do not do that.”
