Chicago Fanatics Message Board :: View topic - Jimmy Buckets era begins in Philly

What should we expect to happen?

Does he make them better or worse?

Will there not be much of a discernible difference?

The Buckets Era in Philly begins in earnest!

What say you?

He'll complain before January. Embiid isn't KAT though.

And Simmons ain't Wiggins. They were a successful team without him and he has to think about that. Those guys are competitive and "the I'm the only guy that works hard , plays hard, or has heart" routine won't fly in Philly. Butler isn't the savior in Philly and hopefully he realizes it. It also really doesn't benefit him if he is a cancer.

2nd or likely 3rd option and if he is comfortable with that then fine. Ball will be in Simmons and Embiid's hands. Its their team.

One thing that may burn Butler up is the fact that Embiid doesn't really practice. At least he didn't last year. They withheld him from practicing as a way to protect him against injury.

I'd assume that they have continued this practice this year also. Embiid really hasn't been injured other than the collision with Fultz.

I wonder if Buckets is going to be cool with that.

The Bulls did him no favors by pushing him as "the man" back when Rose was self destructing.

Where is their shooting?

They need another shooter besides Redick. Elton Brand's gotta get creative.

Bringing Kyle Korver back would be awesome. I just looked up when he was first entered the league (was going to guess 2006/2007.) Can't believe he was in the same draft as LeBron.

All you boys that what an Alpha does ….put a bitch like Fultz on the bench,,,,Nas don't add anything cause you wrong bitch

Embiid out here gunning. Letting Jimmy know who's team it is right away.

Butler looking good too though. Fits in well with that lineup.

I've always been a Jimmy guy. Embiid shooting 5 of the teams first 6 shots seemed to me like he was trying to make a statement like it was his team still.

I'm sure he's not just sitting around at practice playing video games. He's getting some type of work in. Butler has no excuses now. IF he continues with his diva shit there won't be another big contract

Kobe was an alpha. Jimmy is a Diva.

That was a 50 win team minus him, he can't really pull that shit.

Jimmy an Alpha that's what you're saying asshat Yeah one that has never been the best player on any team that has ever won 50 games. More like Alfalfa with your perpetually shitty ass.

Their biggest problem in the playoffs was that had no one that could create off the dribble other than Simmons. Redick Bellinili and Illasova were all liabilities on Defense and they couldn't get a shot off on offense. Stevens repeatedly attacked Redick and Bellinili and McConnell off the dribble. Covington and Saric struggled creating offense also. Fultz and and even have some semblance of an off the dribble game. I'd rather have that than a standstill jump shooter any day. Butler and Covington are probably a wash defensively. Covington is probably better on the ball at this point.
