You can google “best nba players” and see butler around 15 on damn near every list. Don’t hate just Bc he is on a team you don’t like. It is a bad look.

What we know (we hope) just 48 hours before the start of NBA free agency:

*Kemba to Boston

*Klay stays

*Kyrie to Brooklyn -- unless the Lakers miss on Kawhi and swoop in

*Khris M stays -- unless Milwaukee's five-year offer is less than expected

*Vucevic stays with Orlando

I am too big picture to ever use ONE seasons stats when judging a player. And then you went one step further and used PER.

Some of you have no business around even a somewhat serious basketball discussion.

No, that's false. He is not currently a top 15 player. It's okay to be wrong bud.

Bruh that list has Valancuinas as #11. You think he's a top 15 player?

Where are you getting this percentage? Genuinely asking. I can't find anything other than his total 3% which is .341 for his career.

Jimmy Butler has a career 35% 3P shooting average, but has often taken harder threes. Look deeper and you see:
- 38% on catch and shoot
- 41% wide open
- 40%+ from the corners


This was actually from 9/18. Butler is like harden in that he take a lot of contested off the dribble threes that makes his % lower than inferior shooters due to shot type.

No. Just said that magic would be involved with the meeting and that has already been struck down

Google nba top 50 2018 -19 there is at least a handful of websites that put out these rankings. Some will have jimmy better than 15. Some below. But if you take the average the consensus will be top 15.

Is that even good? What are the league averages for catch and shoot, wide open, and corner 3's?

Tania Ganguli @taniaganguli Magic Johnson has been saying since the day he stepped down that he would still be part of the Lakers free agent recruiting efforts. Am also told that LeBron James and Anthony Davis plan to meet with Kawhi Leonard, taking a hands-on approach to try to complete their team.
