Jimmy Butler traded to 76ers!!

They've been really struggling this year, but that could be a huge addition for them.

I don't know if this move improves the team but it is a impact move.

In my opinion I feel it might make it worse simply because Butler strengths is a pure scorer but not a great overall play.

Might look good at first glance adding a player of his caliber but look at whos on their bench now. A bunch of no name players you probably haven't even heard about.

I think he's a good fit there. But I still see them far from winning a championship.

Hasn't he been all-defensive 2nd team four times?

Anytime you upgrade from an erratic 2nd yr. player to all-star stud, well your team just got a lot better . He plays great D {4x all D teams}, and hustles to loose balls. With Reddick coming off the bench to light it up, the burden of 20+ shots is alleviated.

very strong gain for the Sixers, I hope they will beat their last year's record with him

 

[AvovchikA]

It looks good for Sixers, but two good players are gone, and team is so small

I'm not sure what above poster means, Butler is a great defensive player.

In terms of talent he is a poor man's Kawhi Leonard, you could definitely win with him being one of your top 3 guys if you surround him with the right people
