Jimmy Butler is seemingly adding more fuel to the fire in his ongoing feud with the Miami Heat front office.

The six-time All-Star posted a picture on his Instagram Stories indicating he was listening to the Drake song "Emotionless" from his album Scorpion.

If you're unfamiliar with the song, it's an examination of the feelings of isolation and trying to make it through a world that no longer makes sense. It may also not be a coincidence that the album Butler's listening to is named after an arachnid that will sting its prey with a poisonous venom.

The most telling part of the image Butler posted is the timestamp at 2:06. That is the point in the song when Drake sings: "Missin' out on my years/There's times when I wish I was where I was/Back when I used to wish I was here."

This echoes Butler's sentiment during his press conference after the Heat's 128-115 loss to the Indiana Pacers on Thursday night when he said he wants to "get my joy back from playing basketball" and that will "probably not" happen in Miami.

Things escalated between the two sides on Friday when the Heat announced Butler was being suspended seven games for "multiple instances of conduct detrimental to the team" throughout this season and they intend to explore trade options.

The NBPA is filing a grievance on Butler's behalf, but this entire situation seems destined to end with a split between him and the organization he has been with for six seasons.

Butler and the Heat have made the playoffs in each of their first five seasons together, including three trips to the Eastern Conference Finals and two appearances in the NBA Finals.
