This was a great article which told an inspiring story. Jimmy had all of the odds stacked against him since his early childhood and has always defied them. From getting kicked out of his home to his unprecedented journey to the NBA, his story should be an inspiration and motivation to others who aspire to follow their dreams. Jimmy is a dog on the court and given the way he has had to work up until this point, it makes sense why he plays the game that way.

This article about how Jimmy Butler became a NBA player is really interesting. He had to go through many obstacles as a child with his family and started basketball as an average player. With his hard work he was able to get a D1 offer and later through years of dedication of basketball the Bulls picked up Jimmy Butler. During the NBA he was able to achieve even higher limits by becoming an All-Star and being able to take control, deciding the outcome of games. Jimmy Butler is one of the greatest in the league right now and I believe he will eventually go down in history as a hall of famer.

jimmy Butler is an incredible player. His mind set of being the best possible player he can be is very inspirational. Everyone should try and do their best at whatever task is at hand. People with that mindset of Jimmy Butlers almost always make it to where they want to be in life but not always. Some people are just unlucky for example Freddy Adu had the opposite hand of Butler but didn’t make it. He was scouted at a young age but never had the dream career like butler did but for the sport of soccer.

The story of Jimmy Butler has always been so real and so inspiring to me. I believe that he really worked much harder than a lot of the players and people around him. His charisma and his dedication really paid off in the end and made his life a big inspiration for others. He went through a lot. I would have never expected someone to go through as much as he did and still end up being as great as he still is. This article was so well written and very informative.

Jimmy Butler is 100% all self made. I am not really much into basketball but I do find Jimmy Butler’s story inspirational. It told a story about how anyone can be somebody big with the motivation and love for the game. I would have never expected someone to be as great as he is with all the stuff he had gone through. The article was well written and very informative.

Jimmy Butler’s success surely came from his humbleness and willingness to do whatever it takes to win. He took this attitude on to the basketball court and showed everybody he was not going to mess around. It can be argued that even if he didn’t play basketball, the way that he strived for success showed that he could succeed in any aspect of life if he put his mind to it. People who look at his life story should be inspired and strive to be just like him, not just on the court. He proved that with this attitude, no matter how hard things get, you can still come out on top.

this is one of the most famous stories in NBA history, how we was homeless when he was a teenager. How we received zero offers to play basketball in college and with determination and with hard work he is now one of the best NBA players to be actively playing in the NBA. I would have never imagined that he would take his team to the NBA Finals last year against the Lakers. He is the definition of humbleness and the mamba mentality that Kobe Bryant tried to show other players around the NBA.

Jimmy Butler’s story shows us how humility and hard work can overcome talent and achieve success. Stories such as Jimmy Butler are the ones that inspire kids to fulfill their dreams and become better people. Watching Jimmy Butler play is inspiring because he is not necessarily the most talented on the court, but his passion and determination make him stand out.

This article was truly inspiring. It held a strong lesson that anyone can make it to the top, even when the odds seem stacked against you. The lesson was portrayed excellently giving the circumstances of NBA all star Jimmy Butler. It was very motivating knowing how hard working and humble he is and how he was able to build his character even while dealing with many obstacles.
