Hypocrisy regarding Jimmy Butler

[Mr. Woke]

Butler had an absolutely putrid game today, yet for some strange reason more people are clowning Paul George (despite the fact that PG13 played better today).

It's pathetic how biased some people are against Paul George, yet make countless excuses for Butler.

If any other All-Star caliber player had played this badly today, they would be getting mercilessly clowned right now.

Bronsexuals arent insecure about Butler.

If Curry or Kawhi had a game like that the front page would be filled with threads clowning them.

Perhaps Butler has lost relevance.

Yeah, because it has nothing to do with PG shitting the bed so often in the playoffs...to the point he literally has a nickname about it.

Meanwhile Jimmy carried a mediocre team to the finals last year.

It's really not hard to understand lol

[highwhey]

to be fair, it's not like people hold him to the same expectations as LeBron or KD. even after his great finals run, people credited that to the bubble and the unusual events surrounding the state of events of that time.

now curry, lol, we see a thread every time he drops 40pts and people claiming he's the mvp for dropping 40pts. nba casuals confounding scoring with greatness. :ohwell:

PG and JB are comparable playoff performers if you look at their entire careers. Don't fall victim to recency bias.

Last year was a fluke. The Heat got many lucky breaks last season.
