Jimmy Butler's Role On This Team?

Butler will be have to be primary perimeter defender but also carry scoring load when Curry is off the floor.

JK can be a key contributer if he models his game after Butler minus the playmaking. Hopefully he practiced his FT when injured

I bet he didn't, at least no more than he usually would have.

Jeez, you're such a Kuminga hater. I get that you expect the worst from him, but it seems like you don't even hope for the best from him. Do you want him to develop into an important contributor to the team or just hate, hate, hate no matter what?

If you're asking me if I like his game, not really. And he's about to be an overpaid player with very little court vision and the inability to work within the flow of the game. Mediocre FT shooter. Awkward shooting mechanics that causes him to land poorly far too often. Should have moved him at the trade deadline. I'm guessing the injury may have hindered that possibility.

Maybe Butler can make him a useful *team* player. Build the statue for Jimmy immediately if he does that.
