As much I'm happy for Jimmy, I'm not pleased that the Bulls needed this to beat a 4 win team. Even with 2 starters out, there's no excuse for this.
:snoop:

I hope Jimmy is a starter in the allstar game

W, just stop.
Kawhi is the most overrated player in the league and living off the fake mythos of guarding bron in the finals.
when bron Was a pr villain in Miami.
Leonard is Andre igoudala at best.
Leonard is not even as good as Paul pierce, it is all pr because of the bron is the villain stage years in Miami.

Jimmy could arguably be the third or fourth best player in the league.

Jimmy is at that point where I can place him right below Westbrook, KD or AD. All of those guys put up ridiculous numbers and are hall of famers, but Jimmy is just extremely productive and gives 100% heart and effort every game. Even as a bulls fan I used to not be a believer but he's delivered time and again.

I have no beef with anyone saying Butler is the best SG. In fact, I agree, but people need to stop taking points away from Harden for flopping. It's a part of the game and it's working for him. You don't have to like how he plays to admit he's really really good. Harden just might be my least favorite star player in the league right now not named Chris Paul, but a sign of maturity is the ability to separate your personal feelings from the reality of the situation.

Harden flops. True

Harden eurosteps. True.

Harden is annoyoying. True.

Harden's game isn't aesthetically pleasing to watch. True

Harden is a top notch scorer, facilitator, and one of the top 10-12 best players in the league. True.

It's not that hard brehs. His job isn't for you to like his style. It's to put up numbers.

Butler got it in the flow of the game and because his team wasn't hitting shyt either. No matter if it was against the Sixers or not the way he got his 53 was impressive bringing his team back down from a big deficit.

I can only speak for myself on this, the issue I have with it is the over-reliance and dependency of getting a call and not actively looking to score. Not because it cheapens the game and takes away from other players who get hit and don't get calls (which it does), or it's ugly to watch (again, which it is) but because it will NEVER be conducive to winning in the long run, as a #1 option.

In that, you do have to take away points for his "flopping", when judging him next to his peers.
