The New Orleans Pelicans trolled Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler Friday night after a 111-88 blowout win over the Heat.

"We're just a better team," the Pelicans wrote on X.

The post referenced Butler's comments after the last meeting between these two teams on Feb. 23, when he predicted the Heat would win tonight's game.

Pelicans forward Naji Marshall also mocked Butler's past confidence.
