For what? One year after a finals run, he’s down 2-0 to a higher seated DPoy and MVP. With an improved groups of players around him. Meanwhile, we traded key pieces for a player who’s had a season injury.
Let’s have a conversation about Jimmy Butler...

So we're just giving Jimmy a pass for these two terrible games because of his finals run last year? You realize that's the exact premise of the thread, right? If Paul George came out and played this way and the Clips were down 0-2, the Playoff P memes would be flying.
Tell me about these "key pieces" we traded for Oladipo. Bradley barely played for us and Olynik wasn't any better for us than the combination of Ariza + Dedmon have been.

KELLY SHOULD BE STARTING
AS THE STRETCH 5 RIGHT NOW,

IS A GOOD IDEA.

Kelly O wasn't any kind of difference maker for us, he was a rotation guy. He didn't start ballin until after the trade. Ariza and Dedmon have both played well since we added them, so at worst they cancel each other out.
But we're blaming Jimmy "he's definitely top 7-10 in the league" Butler playing like shyt on the absence of Kelly Olynik as some secret X-factor... and again, that's exactly the point of the thread lol. If any other superstar is laying eggs like this, no one is attributing it to the trade of a random role player that occurred two months ago
Jimmy is shooting 8/32 from the field these first two games. He didn't attempt a three tonight and only shot 2 for 9 from deep in Game 1.
He looks washed.

EVERYTHING I SAID
ABOUT THE MATCHUPS.
AND OLYNYK WAS DEFINITELY
A DIFFERENCE MAKER
IN THE FINALS.
This muh'fukka is bringing up Kelly Olynyk as to why Jimmy is shytting the bed right now.

I'm a Butler fan but in reality he a #2 in a non bubble type year. Until he can get back to being an average shooter, the next few years could get ugly. He gets by on FT attempts but that doesnt last forever

That's why he's Bubble Jimmy...
Jimmy will never win a championship as the Main guy. You can’t be giving 21, 6 and 5 as the Top guy of the team and beat the LeBrons/KDs of the world.
