Took you 2 days to come up with that? Talk about living rent free in someone's head...Thanks for the bump though. Guy will be praised for his "toughness" tonight.
Jimmy is one of the most overrated players in the NBA. Not Trae Young overrated, but still...
Now that is a Hot Take. Props for going out on that limb.
According to the anonymous survey of NBA players by The Athletic, Butler ranked tied for 4th place of the most overrated players in the League. Trae, of course, won by a landslide.
Maybe 1 of those 6 was the guy who picked Tracy McGrady as the greatest basketball player ever.Yes, Tracy McGrady.
I think Jimmy's pretty properly rated. Not good enough to carry a team to a title by himself, maybe not even good enough to be the best player on a team to win a title (unless you're in a bubble, maybe). But one of the better 2 way players in the league who has worked his way up from a grinder to a true star.
So 6 players said Jimmy Butler. 5.6% of the 108 players surveyed. Not really a big number.
That seems like a large number when you consider the 400+ players in the League. As Wades said, he is a very good player. Nothing more. Nothing less.
Another Hot Take! I love it.
6 players is a large number? Could be 6 players who he has beef with (Chris Paul, Ben Simmons, TJ Warren, KAT, PJ Tucker, Joe Ingles). Personally I think he is rated properly. Top 20 guy, not a superstar.
Or maybe all the guys who voted for Trae Young just don't like him.Ultimately I pretty much agree - Not a superstar. and I have him very slightly lower as top 25 guy.
Reggie Miller says Butler might be the best player in the playoffs so far.(Ducks and takes the rest of the night off)
#22 can get a basket any time he wants it, hey?
What trouble? The cat's made over $200 million and countin', hey?
