Lol what? No he isn't.

And trading for Butler alone would basically put us where we were with Wade last year that a lot of people claim they hated. Difference would be that imo we would have ended up with a similar regular season record (had we traded for him earlier) but not have the added playoff success to look forward to. Unless he comes with Wade or some other high impact veteran that will immediately put us into win now mode, I don't see the point.


He's third behind LeBron and Giannis imo (at least in the regular season so far)


He's talented for sure but if I need a stop or a shot with the game on the line then I'm going with Jimmy. Gianna's has versatility over him but Jimmy's got killer instinct and can takeover in a half-court setting when needed, voldermort can't do that.

My 10 goes Lebby, Jim Jim, Giannas, Lowry, Wall, PG, Kyrie, IT, Millsap, Demar, Love (Das 11, I know)

someone correct me if am wrong but i think he is a "super star" in the east because the east its weak as hell and because the last draft class was a bust (sorry winslow fans) :-?

LeBron, Giannis, Irving, are all for sure better than Jimmy Butler. Demar, PG, and Love are arguably better or equal too.

I'll take Butler over all, except Giannis. Lebron is gonna be 32. At some point his body is gonna start to wear down with all the games he has played. Unlike the other guys you listed, Butler plays well on both ends.

Butler and......

Hayward!

A dream but you never know. With Riley anything is possible.

I don't want Butler. Rather keep this team and chemistry intact and add to it. If Hayward wants to sign here as a free agent then I am all in on that. McBob is supposed to be in on the recruiting pitch. If he delivers Hayward I would never say a bad thing about him ever again
