Jimmy Butler > Dwyane Wade. This is widely accepted.
The margin of greatness is being debated. And I still disagree with FavreFan. He is just a poster that can discuss NBA better than most.
Don't attempt to move the goal post, if I be allowed to mix my metaphors. You said that Butler would be easily the best player on the team. Statistics in support of the usually reliable eyetest, proved you wrong and then you decided to transition to the more reliable argument that "no GM would take Wade over Butler". This is why your heretofore unchallenged reputation as a "credible" poster needs to be called in question.
It's obvious that a Dwayne Wade playing at a high level is not easily bested by Butler. Statistics bear it out don't they?
Jimmy Butler would easily be the best player on Miami. I double and triple down on that. I don't care how I've phrased it, I believe my message is clear. He is the better basketball player. He is younger. He is more impactful at this point in his career. Etc etc.
Butler > Wade in ever facet.
FavreFan wants to debate how much greater? Fine. I still think it is 'significantly' greater. Dwyane Wade cannot guard anyone these days, and Jimmy Butler is a more efficient scorer and rebounder. He also turns the ball over half as much as Wade. His assist to turnover ratio is better than Wade's.
