Not really?

Remember, Barry was actually quite efficient over his first, like, 6 years in the NBA/ABA.

Butler takes like 14-16 shots per game and has an IMMENSE FTr. Especially in 2023, he was actually quite efficient, and in general has been an efficient scorer who passes well. He isn't a savant playmaker or anything, but he's hardly a chucker.
