As long as Kanter gets traded he will just get solid double-doubles every night. McCollum is playing right now similar to how Butler has been playing. With Butler currently dealing with a wrist sprain even though he will be back soon the owner would do the trade possibly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CJ is not even close to Jimmy unless this is a weird points league. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tobeyreichman18 61 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Jimmy is not even averaging 20 pts 4 ast and 5 reb a game. McCollum averaging more pts, more 3's. 1 less assist. 1 less rebound a game. Pretty similar and considering Butler is the one missing games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Any time a ~2spg guy gets traded in a H2H league, the league landscape changes. Steals can be spiky and chipped in by any player (as opposed to blocks), but not nearly as much as 3's, which have become much more common from every position these last few years and are more reliably supplemented with streamers. Not to mention the volume of Butler's efficient FTs. Edited January 27, 2019 by MrJuiceBar Quote Link to post Share on other sites

His value is stocks and percentages and getting to the line so I wouldn’t be too stressed about him losing much value. Plus they have him play some point lately so I think the trade helps overall... it’s not like he takes 25 shots a game... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ellejamil 845 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I am optimistically holding Tobias in the hopes that he becomes the main scorer for the bench blackhole but why didn't this happen for Jimmy? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rando 465 Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 If you don't need steals, I think Butler is a pretty good sell-high guy if you have league mates who are pretty high on him (willing to pay top 30-35). I love Butler's fantasy game but this just is a tough year for him situationally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RCRanger03 608 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 (edited) wow after shooting 97% over the past 2 weeks from FT (on high volume) he misses 2 of 3 to tie the game...

zunderlips27 27 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Why would the Sixers want to sign Butler in the upcomming free agency? They would give him a star salary to use it as a PJTucker... It hurts to see his role. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
