How good is Jimmy Butler?

Guy had 9 20 point games in his first 3 NBA seasons. He has 9 20 point games THIS season.
Averaging through 13 games:
21.6 points
6.1 rebounds
3.2 assists
50 % FG (61.3 true shooting %)
33 % from 3 (for a SG still averaging 21.6 PPG is mind blowing)
8.2 FTs/Game (82% FT shooting)
His game reminds me of a younger DWade's game. Not that great of a shooter, but has developed a lethal post game, and is finishing everything at the hoop on drives.
In the new NBA, I could see this guy getting a max contract. He is a downright matchup nightmare in the post for SGs because of his size.

Those stats with his defense = future baller. Dude is going through the Paul George phase as we speak.

Just curious, what are his height and weight?

6'7" 220

He's basically a smaller Rudy Gay without the talent.

I'm just hoping the Bulls can keep him. He's going to get some huge offers.

Rejected the Bulls offer a few weeks ago. He prolly gone in the offseason

Definitely not this good.

A more polished Trevor Ariza.

Everything the Bulls have is because of that butler.

He's going to get max this off season, for sure.

Which just shows how terrible the current system is in the NBA.

If he's smart he'll leave Chicago so Thibs doesn't ruin him.

Max for a player coming off of his first contract is different from max for a player of LeBron's caliber.

Not different enough. If Jimmy Butler can sign for $9M, Lebron is worth at least $30M.
Take a look at baseball. Roll players make $8-$15M, studs make 2-3x that.

Him and Kawhi are going to have a rivalry. Kinda reminds me of a budding Pippen.
