The Greek Freak is a #2.
You probably would of been calling Jordan a #2 in 1988.

Mark Jackson is at least calling him out consistently for not bothering to get back on defense. Just brutal.
Not sure but Westbrook might be the worst good player in the NBA. Houston may be wishing they still had Chris Paul (and those picks).
Bad timing on this one huh. Houston is up 15 and Westbrook just hit a 3.

Nah. Many others but not MJ. You could see it w MJ.
Giannis was 0-6 from 3 and Heat were just picking it in and hoping he’d shoot

Not really, kind of the opposite, not making a knee jerk decision based on one game. Westbrook obviously younger but this year seems to me Paul has been better and smarter and more efficient. Though Westbrook is pretty polarizing so your mileage may vary.

again, bledsoe is the better all-around player and was cheaper.

“Irving says he’s aware that he’s been linked to Jimmy Butler in persistent free-agent rumors regarding a mutual desire to play together in New York, but he says he’s had no such discussions with Butler. In fact, he says, the last time he talked to Butler at length was when they were both playing with USA Basketball, and the two engaged in a spit-balling session along with [Kevin] Durant and [DeMarcus] Cousins about what the future held for each of them.”
That spitball session turned into kyrie and KD going to the same team (and DMC on warriors). If Jimmy was on a stable team, who says it couldn't have been with him?
The recruiting never occurred because right when jimmy had enough pull to recruit a player he was traded..... F**king garpax
The recruiting never happened because you need someone who actually wants to play with you.

1) they should have paid for both
2) i'm taking brogdon's shooting over bledsoe's slightly better defense and creating skills if i'm building a team around giannis antetokounmpo. bledsoe's been pretty brutal in the playoffs in milwaukee

But you literally have no proof that noone wants to play with him. In every situation HE was the one who wanted out of the **** situation.

I have proof with Irving. You are the one with no proof other then to keep saying he is a winner they will want to play with him. But that isnt how it works.

Did he say he doesn't wanna play with jimmy? More like they haven't talked about it since Team USA. Did jimmy have a team to call his own since then?

Are you gonna eat your words when miami signs two max FA next off season? Jimmy has always made people eat crow and will continue to do so.

Pau Gasol a future hall of famer loved playing with him. DWade a future hall of famer loved playing with him so much he pushed to have him come to Miami. Embiid was mad that he left and loved playing with him. Everyone in Miami in general loves him.
People can keep lying on Jimmy, but that's all they are is lies.

Yeah like i said that was Jimmy's camp leaking things. Trying to get someone to play with him. He got no takers. We will see if Miami gets anyone. You might think its easy to sign a top 5 player... But its not. It is usually one of the top 3 players getting a top 10 player to sign with him. Not a top 10 player trying to get a top 5 player to sign with him. I mean even LeBron has trouble getting people to sign with Cleveland & he is the best player in the game, its a reason he went to Miami. & now LA.

How do you know that's Jimmy's camp leaking things? How would Jimmy's camp know about KD if he wasn't in the discussion with them?
Like others have said multiple teams tried to get him. Another team not mentioned was the rockets but they didn't have the assets.
"Got no takers"
When did he have the chance to recruit? Last I checked he was 1 of 1 with wade.
