Before GTA6

*KAT won a championship while Embiid still hasn’t made the conference finals

FTFY

Not having the league step in and saddle him with NepoAngelo made a huge difference there

You were thinking of Joel Embiid in this moment?

Turns out, being a ²⁄₃ option on a great team can lead to greater team success than being the first option

Always the dumbest types of posts. Let’s individually compare Jimmy Butler postseasons in 2020 and 2023 to KAT’s performance tonight lol

Come get your Randle, before it’s too late, everyone.

It’s like Minnesota is an incompetent franchise!

I know I’m rubbing salt in the wound, but the Lakers, your most winning franchise and the very first NBA dynasty ever and achieved even the impossible, actually bringing titles to Minnesota still won more and became iconic after they left the state.

It’s gonna be funny when people relitigate Jimmy’s Wolves years.

Technically only KG and KAT were drafted by the Timberwolves

Hi, I would like one Anthony Edwards please.

Yeah, I’m happy for KAT but damn if this doesn’t keep happening

The wolves did not draft Wiggins

Love won a title because he was traded to Cleveland *for* Wiggins, the Cavs’ 1(1) pick in 2014.

Wolves coulda had it but they traded 5 FRP for fucking Rudy Gobert man

Or, you can just move the franchise with the players to a different city. Worked out great for the Lakers.

Tobias over me??

Blame Nico

Swap KAT with Jimmy on the ‘20 Heat or ‘22 Heat and theyre not even making the conference finals.

Swap Wiggins with Jimmy on the ‘20 Heat or ‘22 Heat and making the second round is kind of questionable.

That’s the problem, Jimmy ain’t good enough as a first option to win a championship.

That’s not the point. Jimmy was mad he didn’t get paid an exorbitant amount right when he wanted to and then started dragging KAT (second option) and Wiggins (third option). Guess what? KAT just won as a second option and Wiggins won as a third option. So if they’re good enough in their roles to win one what does that mean for Jimmy as the first option?

Who

Both were also incredibly important to their respective runs. 

That’s disingenuous to KAT. After two games the media had him as the front runner for finals MVP. He had a lot of important plays. Brunson scored half the teams points tonight they were all carried by him.

Jimmy had Embiid and Bam, whats his excuse?

wasnt kat the 2nd option this run

took brunson and steph no time at all with one to do what jimmy thought was impossible with two. idiot.

And never got it done.

it’s more that every fanbase jimmy enthralls he subsequently alienates by blowing up the locker room.

He’s a fuckin arrogant asshole that constantly disrespects others and pops his shit like he’s won multiple chips when he’s won nothing

Hes a snake and a whiny bitch

because he’s a FT merchant that every team he’s ever played for hates him when he leaves.(besides maybe the bulls).

Wolves hate him, whole org hates him

6ers hate him

Heat hate him

Fuck Jimmy.

Because he  is a selfish diva.

No, what greatly annoyed Butler was that the Wolves didn’t want to gut their roster to pay him a max contract early.

That’s it.

As we’ve seen since, Jimmy just cares about getting paid.

kat and wiggins were traded in lateral/financial moves, not because they blew up the locker room.

Jimmy had a butthurt ego and wanted out even though the team had just won 47 games with a promising young core and his leadership as he was entering his prime.

Maybe if Jimmy wasn’t such a diva he’d have a ring or two by now

Why couldn’t Butler lead them?

And yet both contributed 1000× more to a ring than Butler has or will, so he’s still a clown

jimmy was supposed to be the leader. he quit after one season that he was injured half of.

Jimmy never wanted to be in Minnesota in the first place. It was obvious from the second that he got traded there from the Bulls that he was going to leave in FA no matter what.

Nah  he just a whiny  bitch who quits on teams the second he doesn’t get his way. Fucking hypocrite.

Easily. We literally saw how much better the team was with Butler literally replacing Wiggins lol. Both are great, Butler is just another level

That’s not the point. Jimmy was mad he didn’t get paid an exorbitant amount right when he wanted to and then started dragging KAT (second option) and Wiggins (third option). Guess what? KAT just won as a second option and Wiggins won as a third option. So if they’re good enough in their roles to win one what does that mean for Jimmy as the first option?
