Yeah, agree....If you think Jimmy Butler was the problem, then you need to catch up on T-Wolves basketball. Not even the Wolves fans in here are bashing him, but the remaining roster minus him and their coaching staff.
Also Simmons and Embiid are the real deal. Hate to break it to you. Embiid is what you would hope Ayton turns out to be. And additionally, no team would take any suns player, including Booker over Simmons.
How about a Jackson/Wiggins MMA style fight? I think it would be much closer than people think.
Whatever you say. If Booker was on Philly he’d probably be a two time All Star by now. He’s younger than Simmons and averaging 25-5-5 a game. He needs to improve defensively for sure. certainly didn’t have the cast around him that Simmons did.If you think Jimmy Butler was the problem, then you need to catch up on T-Wolves basketball.

Ellis averaged 25 points one time. Booker is doing that at age 21. And I’ll take a chance on Phoenix winning more than 68 games in three seasons if they were in the East.Booker is able to put up monster numbers on a team that doesn't do anything. Hell compare his numbers to Monta Ellis during his Warrior years and you'll see quite a close comparison. Meanwhile the overhyped Simmons (in his first year playing) and Embiid who you said was playing every third game(63 games last year, including rest games) got them to a 3 seed in the East.
Booker is a good player, but there's no validity to his numbers just yet. Booker's won a total of 68 games in his first three years. The 76ers won 52 last year alone. Huge difference.
No Stack Jack would murder Wiggins. It'd be a deer in the headlights. Wiggins don't want that smoke.
Wiggins is an unknown but there's plenty of footage of Jackson knocking the shit out of fans, lol. He choked out Steve Francis at a club, he got a gun charge in a strip club parking lot. Stack is bout that life.

So basically what Cleveland should have done with Kyrie. But also could just be a ploy to extract more value. I'd say the chances of him landing with the Knicks, Nets or Clips is going to be on the lower end of the spectrum.
Honestly Philly should go after him. I know it's reported that he doesn't want to play with young players, but I think it's more he doesn't want to play with undisciplined players. Simmons, Embiid and Covington would show him that they know how to compete. Especially Embiid, lol.
If I'm Philly I'd offer Fultz, Bayless and Muscala's expiring contracts and a 1st round pick for JB.
T-Wolves get back a former #1 pick from a year ago, 14M in expiring contracts and a 1st round pick likely in the 24-25 range. Then they could deal Teague for other assets.
No they wouldn't.
Too much.
Philly may well offer a deal for Butler, but Fultz won't be part of it. If they wouldn't part with him in a Kawhi offer, they would be hella foolish to trade him for Butler. Reports out of Philly is that Fultz's shot looks great and they are very high on him again.
George isn't better than Jimmy Butler. Minnesota was never a contender last year. Pretty obvious logic really.
