Butler is fine, but that Bulls team has been horribly constructed this entire time.

When Noah and Boozer were 2 of your 3 best players youre never going to win it all. Why do the bulls never make key trades in the off season or deadline to push them to the next level. I dont feel bad for any bulls fan cause of their 90s run but it must be frustrating to root for a team thats not even on the rise, just constantly in the same position never going to win it all.

Butler can make big shots down the stretch. I think that part of his game is still improving and he's been big in quite a few games they would have lost if he didn't carry them late. Butler is always getting better.

Bulls still need a good small forward to be a true contender; like they've needed for the past 5 years. Butler's really an overachiever. Guys coming out of community colleges are not supposed to be this good.

T.O.
IS NOT, a number one option. I'm not saying he's not a very good player. He is. But he's not supposed to be the #1 on a team. He's Bosh in Toronto status, if that. Good. But not good enough.


Nah he's not even Bosh as a raptor...Bosh carried two bum ass teams to the playoffs...

Butler could not have carried those 07 - 08 teams to 47 and 41 wins...

That's why I'm hoping we can make a trade.

Him and Kawhi are the same to me. I don't think they can be primary playmakers but we won't know because of their teams. They are both great players and play top notch defense unlike other 'superstars'

Never have thought that he was a number one option but he can be the second best player on a title team. They may be Butler's team now but the Bulls wont win a title as long as that is the case. If Rose was healthy and the same player he used to be then i could see it with Jimmy as the second option. But he doesnt have the game or the mentality to go out there and be the lead dog on a championship squad.
:whoa:

Come on breh.

There's no SG in the league that should be a #1 option (apart from Kobe, but he's not prime anymore and we're talking right now).

Butler, a strong #2.
Klay, a strong #2.
Harden, was 6th man on the best team he's ever been on.

This. Butler would be the perfect number 2 scorer/ lock down defender to compliment a still dominant rose :manny:

i'm pretty sure everyone from the owner to the ball boy let him know that off top

i mean there's this guy named derrick rose on the team.......................

yes NOW he's injured and out... so they'll either not sign him, or ship him off... then get another #1

Shut up fakkit.

This fakkit compares butler to another fakkit like bosh.
