What to do with Jimmy Buckets? 

Post#1 » by young_frogger » Sat Mar 7, 2015 12:07 am

Do I keep him or Drop him? I'm already waiting on Paul George to heal up, looks like he may be suiting up sooner than Jimmy anyways.

My team is beast enough to wait for him to come back but do you guys think he will back in time for the playoffs?

If you can afford to keep him, keep him. If you get to the playoffs and he isn't back you can always did into the free agent pool then. But you will not find a better player in free agency.

Assuming both come back, Butler will likely produce better than Paul George. George will be brought along slowly.

I wouldn't expect much from George. There will be a minute limit and Indy has a bunch of B2Bs during the playoffs that he'll sit out. You'll be getting max 3 games a week from a player on a minutes limit. A streaming spot will be much more valuable.

As far as Jimmy goes, hold him as long as you can.
