Jimmy Butler is a better basketball player than Giannis.

Sorry.

This series is just case 1A that the game isn't about stats

Jimmy doesn't put up 30 points 18 rebounds 9 assists every game

But he plays is F*CKING ASS OFF every single possession

ON BOTH ENDS

How can you watch this series & think he's not the better basketball player today?

Long-term? Of course you take GA. But let Giannis have all the reg season awards from ppl who don't have a clue. DPOY was a joke. MVP doesn't mean shit if you can't make a shot outside 2 feet in the playoffs.

And his shot selection was truly abysmal.

Jimmy has imposed his will.

Strips. Blocks. Offensive rebounds. Post ups. Drive and kicks. Finishes. FT's. 3's. Off the dribble. Spot up. Midrange. Feel for the game. Hustle plays. Walling up. Help defense. Rotations.

80% of that shit doesnt even show up on the stat sheet.

Today? Better basketball player.
