Butler is nice and wouldve made them scary in 2020 and 2021 but then they wouldn’t have drafted Tyrese Maxey. Theyre not beating the Lakers or Bucks in those years so its not really a loss. And now Maxey is averaging 10 pts more than Butler and twice the assists, Butler is only a better defender but Maxey is probably the better player already.

So as crazy as it sounds picking Tobias Harris over Jimmy was the right move all along, we all owe Philly an apology.

    I don’t know man, Butler’s brought the Heat to the finals twice with Miami, who knows what he and Embiid could have done together.

    Love Maxey though, the Sixers are a lot more fun to root for when he’s balling out

    Jimmy B. definitely makes it more interesting… because Butler by himself made things interesting in 2020 and 2023… you got Embiid next to him?
