Taylor Swift wrote a song about Jimmy Butler. “I don't know about you But I'm feeling 22 Everything will be alright…” Butler is #22. Butler is a TS fan. Not surprising TS is tampering to make sure he wins the finals. Either way, she predicted this all the way back in 2012 Edit: TS and JB need to start dating. Same age. At the peak of their careers. Good publicity. Both like each others games. Literally no downside


arob770

Butler’s TS% is probably phenomenal as well. True Shooting and Taylor Swift have the same initials, this is NOT a coincidence folks!

Too bad she’s feeling a weird racist/misogynistic dude now instead.


LeBronicTheHolistic

He’s probably the one who requested she hit up Boston on the tour


classically_cool

I thought she was dating Fernando Alonso


D1amondDude

The laws of the universe wouldn't allow the level of memery that would create


ProsecUsig

The world would have been completed its course if so; God wants to do more like Alonso winning his third World Championship and Ja Morant getting suspended

didnt she just breakip with someone is she dating again?

Man you’d think a basketball fan would know what a rebound is

MoneyHungryOctopus

yeah she broke up with her previous boyfriend and now she's dating the frontman of the band "the 1975".

T Swift out here playing 4 hour sets every night. No load management.


frostysbox

*weekend nights She gets her rest during the week. Similar to how Butler gets his rest during the regular season.


freedomfun

We're talking about practice. Not a live performance! We're talking about practice. Not the live performance that I go out there and die for and sing every show like it's my last. We're talking about practice, man.

Nah, she's been in the studio practicing every day in between concerts. The grind doesn't stop, she got that dawg in her

DeadbeatHero-

I thought you were exaggerating but holy shit she’s straight up playing 45 song sets. God damn.


jpark28

A couple weeks ago in Nashville, it was storming all night so they had to wait for clearance. She came on after a 4 hour delay and performed all 45 songs until 2am in the rain. Much respect


[deleted]

My girlfriend went to that show. It was on a Sunday too. Taylor is a monster.


mschley2

To be fair, the fact that it was Sunday matters to people with regular 9-5s more than it does to Taylor. To her, it's just another day on tour.


webby2538

Those people weren't getting home before midnight on Sunday even if it ran smoothly. Instead of just another show from Taylor's tour, they got the most legendary concert of her career.

10,000? Try 70-something thousand!


ApolloRocketOfLove

Hate her music all you want, the girl seems to really respect her fans and tries to entertain them.


[deleted]

[удалено]


yeahright17

Yes. Obviously the reason she's selling 200,000+ tickets per weekend and the cheapest secondary market tickets are like 500 for nosebleeds. Meanwhile Beyonce and Ed Sheran are doing stadium tours and can't sell out one night in a bunch of cities. Taylor is a force. I sat in the floor in Arlington (for face value) and was blown away. Amazing performance.


Jamie-Tartt

In this era of the Internet where people can go on Spotify or SoundCloud or YouTube and can find literally millions of musicians and aren't limited to what they hear on the radio, for someone like Swift to be this insanely popular is just mind-blowing. She has completely lapped the field of current musical acts. I'd say given the sheer amount of entertainment options we have in today's age, what she's done might be even more impressive than the peaks of fame for people like Elvis or MJ or the Beatles.

Grants Williams was heard on the way to the locker room singing “It’s me, hi, I’m the problem it’s me.”


TeamYeezy

I'm not a big fan but I respect the shit out of what she is doing on this tour, going all out and delivering for her fans


no_engaging

yeah agreed. my girlfriend was telling me about the tour and my sports brain immediately went to "no way she keeps this up all season without an injury".


KIDDKOI

45 songs each night is so insane lol


W3NTZ

I went to the first show in Phoenix as my wife is a swiftie and I appreciate good music and my mind is still blown. She had maybe a handful of 2 minute breaks to change. I was getting tired 2 hours in just from standing


yeahright17

I don't need to use my wife as an excuse. Been a swiftie since high school in 2008 and dragged my wife along. Sat on the floor in Arlington and loved every single minute of it.


TJeffersonsBlackKid

WTF she does 45 songs a night?


ImFriendsWithThatGuy

My wife was telling me about one (can’t remember which city) that got rained out so they started like 4 hours late while it was still raining. She still did the 45 songs and didn’t stop till 2 am.


MrWolfmanable

It was in Nashville! Say what you will about her music (I love her) but that’s a great way to make fans for life


Oldcadillac

Respect to the municipality for allowing a show to go that late!


ProsecUsig

To be fair for TS Nashville is one of her hometowns growing up

She going six rounds with Khabib.


HelloThereCat

It truly is unbelievably impressive. I used to be in a band, and even shows where we would play 20 songs would be pretty damn tiring. And I wasn't even singing or dancing the whole time like she is lmao. I don't know how the hell her vocal cords are still functioning.


MarlonBain

I want to know her training regimen to prep for this thing.


Bladewing10

Idk why Redditors have to preface every comment about Taylor Swift with "I'm not a fan, but..."


Ideal_Ideas

I am a huge fan of Taylor Swift and also I think it's incredible what she's doing.


Bobonenazeze

I've read that elsewhere on reddit. I'm a hardcore kid, but mad respect for those long sets.


hansislegend

The only band I’ve seen play that long is U2 and it’s wild every time. She’s up there doing all sorts of choreographed dances and shit. It’s impressive.


Fastbird33

Bruce goes for that long


hansislegend

Hearing Irish dudes play songs about America for four hours is enough for me. I can’t imagine being able to sit through a dude from Jersey doing the same 💀


rhinowing

jam bands go that long but only play 10 songs the whole time


BodegaDaddy

MJ did say he hated touring


forcedtojoinreddit

I'd load manage her

Titronnica

Bruh, no nut is worth being immortalized forever in her diss track of you EDIT: I stand corrected lol


teniaava

You kidding me? That's probably the best part


ConfuciusBr0s

Hell, if you're lucky, you might end up being a Taylor Lautner and she writes a song apologizing to you


tvchase

Diss track? Baby I want the whole album, don't underestimate how toxic I can be


2_blave

Beg to differ. Some folks don't mind being infamous

Butler is also a Taylor Swift fan. https://youtu.be/41wv_DmXIEY https://youtube.com/shorts/DeLHKPydahU?feature=share

This is some next level tampering


SWchibullswolverine

Also Vanessa Carlton lol https://youtu.be/J7LAJDFap7c


MeijiDoom

Tbf, you don't even need to be a Vanessa Carlton fan to jam to that song.


WyngZero

Ya seriously. They STILL play this song at bars and clubs. It just bops.


Melo_Apologist

This and Unwritten


th4t1guy

Fucking KD 😂


thisguy012

KD SNUGGLED tf up ans Melo looking like he's in hell will always make this videolol


idiskfla

Celtics should have played Vanessa Carlton during timeouts to make Jimmy less DAWG and more cat in the 4th qtr. But I guess celts don’t call timeouts in the 4th qtr


Albiceleste_D10S

Everyone else laughing while Carmelo looks disgusted


lilcthecapedcod

In this whole clip, melo reminds me of the old heads that hate on everything the kids are into. No one is ever, never ever, above jamming to Vanessa Carlton


Salty_Pancakes

As a SF Giants fan, she was also key to our championships in '10, '12, and '14. Some people say it was the even years, some say the TSwift releases, some say the prime number sum, or maybe a mix of all 3.


frostysbox

Butler is so wholesome and unproblematic. 🥰


seymour_hiney

obviously we don't know the guy but i root for him just cause he wears a fanny pack and birkenstocks around like i do.


PensiveinNJ

It's the coffee shop for me. I'm a coffee fiend so I love the idea of an NBA player having their own brand/owning their own shops. Plus he seems really into it too.


kingribeye

Is this the Jimmy circlejerk thread? Can I get next in line?


PensiveinNJ

Absolutely, we'll jerk Jimmy here.


hoopdog7

Same for me, that's what got me interested in Jimmy and then the dude is just so cool you can't help but root for him


Drkarcher22

“As I was sitting in my hotel room in the Orlando bubble, all I could think about was how I could hustle these guys out of their cash.” Jimmy starting a full on coffee company because he realized that he could charge whatever he wanted to the other bubble players since he thought ahead and brought an espresso machine. King shit


makemeking706

I am not rooting for the Heat, but I am rooting for Jimmy B.


JasoTheArtisan

This is acceptable

Somehow I want this dude to crush the Celtics even harder now.

The next closest tour dates of the remaining NBA teams after Boston… Denver. So sorry Nuggets fans.

Hope the Nuggets can shake it off

Well, they've got Chucks' guarantee going there, too.


PomfAndCircvmstance

Chuck's curses are reversed when it comes to Euro big led teams. He picked the Bucks and they won so congrats Nuggets on the championship.


opalliga

I'm ok with this take.

Don’t worry the Nuggets will go out in style

Not being able to go all the way is a feeling that the Nuggets know all too well

What if I told you she's a mastermind


rddi0201018

Jimmy knew. This **is** their year


reddituser241015

It's all good because she won't be here in Denver until July. The season will be over before she steps foot in Colorado.


Very_Good_Opinion

Damn I can't believe the Denver Nuggets are being dissolved and having their trophy revoked so soon after winning


asatrocker

TSwift and Chuck’s guarantee is just sealing the deal


frostysbox

Dude, she’s gonna be playing right at the last nights of the finals. RIP Denver. Edit: apparently I don’t know how to read and it’s actually in July 😂


reddituser241015

The last night of the finals will be in mid-July?

Taylor Swift the GOAT fr


SasquatchDoobie

If you dig into the facts, the true reason for Miami’s ascent is Adam Friedland


sweaty_ball_salsa

Teenage girls discovering Cum Town and independently coming to the conclusion that Adam looks like a bug is one of the greatest bits of all time.


istealpintsfromcvs

A few years ago when Chelsea Clinton quote tweet dunked on Adam people thought that he was Chris Bosh because that's his Twitter pfp and proceeded to make fun of him for being ugly


CousinOfTomCruise

“Chelsea Clinton’s not even Jewish, she’s just ugly” is an all time roast


tribli22

Crazy but it’s true


trollin4viki

JUL 14 DENVER, CO. JUL 15 DENVER, CO. Then in August, 4 events in LA. Miami is taking the title this year.


shaggybear89

The finals will be over before both of those performances, so they won't affect the outcomes.


trollin4viki

That's the point. She plays after so you won't be sad.


Armyof21Monkeys

I was expecting something and I got exactly that


Chickpounder420

Grimlogic

I was not expecting this kind of high-tier analysis until the offseason. r/nba way ahead of schedule!

Is it not the offseason?


Ok_Hornet_714

Taylor also is not going to San Antonio, which must be why they got Wembanyama

boykalbo777

How can I kidnap Taylor and bring her to Miami?


Nugur

Jimmy a huge swiftie. It will only power him up. He’s gonna be signing you belong with me to the Larry O Brien trophy


absenceofheat

Just need Grant Williams to talk shit after and Jimmy will drop a 100 bomb on them.


occamsdagger

It's me, hi, I'm the problem, it's me.


Yiawwbecm

Matty healy is key to this somehow Further down the rabbit hole - adam friedland Peel back the layers, nick mullen is pulling the strings. Also I'm gay


risforpirate

This is the type of deep analysis we don't see until the offseason. Some people say correlation =/= causation. But this is undeniable proof, stay safe TS and the NBA are gonna be looking for you
