This Week On Keeping Up With Jimmy Butler

NBA all-star Jimmy Butler has had ran to a problem with the Sixers coach Brett Brown. Butler feels as if he’s not being utilized right and that his role on the team isn’t big enough. This isn’t Butlers first time having a problem with a team on his previous teams he has had multiple problems with coaches and players. On the Bulls, he had problems with their young players, and with the Timberwolves he had problems with the young superstars on their team (Karl-Anthony Towns, Andrew Wiggins) and the whole coaching staff, that he also verbally challenged. But unlike his previous teams, Jimmy Butler claims are shown to be true. If you watch Jimmy Butler, he’s know for scoring in pick and rolls and isolation play. But the Sixers run their offense through the high post instead of pick and rolls and that goes against Butlers style of play. By them running it through the high post Butler touches go down and it doesn’t let him play his game well, which would support Butlers claim. Even though it obvious that Butlers claims are right some people would say he went about it the wrong way and overstepped his boundaries as a player. Coach Brown needs to straighten out Butler, but Brown feels otherwise he said "I didn’t feel like any of that crosses the line and if it did it would of been dealt with quickly."  Coach Brown knows how much Butler cares about the team and how much he cares about winning and what a competitor Butler is. Brown is trying his best to work Butler in the offense he went later on to say "My Job is to make this work this is my job when you come into a situation with Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid, and JJ Redick, it always doesn’t equal immediate sorts of pleasure or Immediate comfort." Which is true it takes time to add a fourth star in the mix of things so soon. I believe coach brown will find a solution to get everyone on the same page. But in the mean time I feel Butler will find a way to adapt and find meaning in his role. Coach Brown will surely work night and day fit Butler in the offense. The great player he is needs to adapt to his role and find the meaning of his role and recognize the importance in his role and carry it out to the fullest until changes can be made.
