No don't u understand it was all Minnesota's and Chicago's fault because Jimmy claims he is the hardest working player in the history of sports and says all the right things that fans want to hear.

[–][BOS] Avery Bradley cma1681 940 points 10 hours ago

I already loved Rondo as a basketball player/leader before that incident, but this quote made me love him more. He sided himself with the young players:

"My vets would never go to the media," Rondo wrote in the caption. "They would come to the team. My vets didn't pick and choose when they wanted to bring it. They brought it every time they stepped in the gym whether it was practice or a game. They didn't take days off.

"My vets didn't care about their numbers. My vets played for the team. When we lost , they wouldn't blame us. They took responsibility and got in the gym. They showed the young guys what it meant to work. Even in Boston when we had the best record in the league, if we lost a game, you could hear a pin drop on the bus. They showed us the seriousness of the game.

"My vets didn't have an influence on the coaching staff. They couldn't change the plan because it didn't work for them. I played under one of the greatest coaches, and he held everyone accountable. It takes 1-15 to win. When you isolate everyone, you can't win consistently. I may be a lot of things, but I'm not a bad teammate. My goal is to pass what I learned along. The young guys work. They show up. They don't deserve blame. If anything is questionable, it's the leadership."

Celtics fan: Before the Bulls infighting incident, I had already fallen in love with Rondo as a basketball player and basketball leader. But the following paragraph makes me love him even more. He originally stood with young players:

"The veterans I met will never come to the media to make irresponsible remarks," Rondo wrote in the title. "They will not ask for leave and will not care about data. I The veterans that we know will fight for the team and they won't blame us when we lose. Instead of preparing us, they took responsibility and walked into the gym. They showed young people what it meant to work. Even in Boston, when we had the best record in the league, if we lost a game, they were silent. Shows us the seriousness of the competition."

" The veterans I've met don't tell the coach what to do because it doesn't work. I played under a top coach who got everyone involved. It’s about 15 people. If you separate everyone, you can’t win consecutively. Maybe a lot has happened to me, but I'm not a bad teammate. My goal is to teach the young guys what I've learned and how to work. If there's anything to blame, it's the team's. Leadership.”

[–]Bulls VER1NGA 364 points 10 hours ago

That was a super weird era for the Bulls, I was confused when Rondo came in and was semi-excited about Wade, then Jimmy turned into a drama queen, Wade was way past it and I ended up loving Rondo. What a weird season

Bulls fans: The Bulls were really weird during that period. When Rondo first came, I was still confused, and I was a little excited about Wade's arrival. Then Butler became a dramatist, and Wade was not as good as before. In the end, I fell in love with Rondo. That season was really weird.

A college coach maybe... just so much of being an NBA coach is managing egos, and that's not something that is going to fit Rondo's style well.

But impeccable x's and o's and motivating kids while helping them become men seems fantastic.

Maybe he is a college coach...Being an NBA coach also has to deal with the players' face issues. This is not Rondo's style.

However, his understanding of offense and defense and his motivation for players are impeccable, and I feel that he should be very good.

Thanks for the KAT shout out. He was getting roasted for being soft and not having a good work ethic because of Jimmy but KG has said that Towns is a hard worker and there's no way KG would say that unless it was true. Also since Jimmy left, KAT has been having a really good season, particularly on defense where he has really stepped it up.

Timberwolves fans: Thank you for supporting Towns. Just because of Butler, he was criticized and said that he had no professional ethics. But Garnett said that Towns worked very hard, and what Garnett said must be true. And since Butler left, Towns has played really well this season, especially on the defensive end, he has also made great contributions.

Because it was easier to shit on KAT since he is streaming video games and all that stuff. Well, thank god I wasn't on the "Jimmy" boat. He did some disrespectful stuff and it was not ethical. You could say it was even worse than the Vince Carter's last season on Raptors.

Kings fans: Because it’s easier to troll Towns, after all, he’s into video games and stuff like that. Well, luckily I wasn't on Butler's side. He did some disrespectful and immoral things. It can be said that he did more things than Carter did in his last season with the Raptors.

[–]tfwnobigtittygothgf 197 points 10 hours ago

It just really irked me that after the trade KAT and Wiggins said nothing but nice things about Butler, but for about a month Jimmy was sneak dissing and making indirect statements about them.

[–]76ers DeekoOne 2117 points 11 hours ago*

I will say Butler is kind of right here. He's being completely misused in the offense.

Also, I'm convinced ESPN and the media is really trying to push the Simmons and Embiid tension story. They're have been no indicators and Simmons and Embiid have said they get along fine plenty of times yet the media constantly harps about it.

76ers fans: I think Butler is right. He was completely misplaced offensively.

In addition, I am convinced that ESPN and other media are really deliberately trying to sow discord between Simmons and Embiid. But there is no sign of this happening. And even though Simmons and Embiid have repeatedly said that they have a good relationship with each other, the media still wants to cause trouble.

He really hasn't done much playmaking or PnR stuff. He's sort of the default 4th option after Embiid, Embiid/Redick 2-man, and Simmons creating.

76人Fans: Butler really doesn't have many opportunities to initiate offense or play pick-and-rolls. He's kind of like the team's default fourth option on offense, with Embiid in front of him, the duo of Embiid and Redick, and Simmons running the offense.

[–]76ers Chelli64 175 points 11 hours ago

Brett just has Jimmy stand at the perimeter and take threes or take pull up jump shots. He never runs any plays with him, not even a pick and roll, which would be deadly with Embiid , and I mean literally no pick and rolls. On top of that, he only plays with Ben, meaning he never runs point when Ben is out, he just puts TJ in. It's frustrating to watch and I'm glad Jimmy said something, I just wish he said it differently.

76ers fans: Brett asked Butler to wait outside to shoot a three-pointer or a pull-up jumper. He has never been allowed to initiate an offense, let alone a pick-and-roll. The pick-and-roll between him and Embiid is obviously very powerful. I think there really isn't any pick-and-roll. In addition, Brett only plays Simmons. Even if Simmons goes down, McConnell will be replaced. It looks really depressing. I'm still happy that Butler can say it, but I hope he changes his approach.

[–]Raptors TheOneandOnly1994 538 points 11 hours ago

To be fair, its tough having him handle the ball when Simmons isn’t effective without the ball and Embiid, being the best player on the team, has to get his fair share of the ball.

Raptors fans: To be honest, Simmons is very inefficient without the ball, and Embiid is the best player on the team. He also needs to share the ball. In this way, Butler can control the ball. The ball is hard.

[–]Either Chicken 74 points 10 hours ago

Pretty much this. Bens lack of ability to space the floor in Any capacity is a huge limiting factor in this offense. And it shows a lot more now that convington and Sarric are gone

basically That's what happened. Simmons's lack of ability to open up space has greatly restricted the 76ers' offense. After Covington and Saric left, this problem became more obvious.

[–][PHI] Elton Brand modestlife 893 points 10 hours ago

I honestly never thought that was a good fit. Yeah they would be up there talent wise, but styles clash and all of them need the ball without either of them being good 3 point shooters

Lakers fan: Really, I never thought they were suitable for the 76ers. Yes, the 76ers are very talented, but the players' styles are very conflicting. All of them want the ball, and without the ball, they don't have a strong three-pointer.
