And, like, to be fair, the old thing kind of played out.
He looked good when he was healthy.
He did, and it worked when he was healthy.
By the way, putting all that aside,
I have very little faith that the version of Jimmy Butler we're going to see when he returns from an ACL tear in January or February.
And I think it's more, I know the Warriors are posturing that he's attacking his rehab well, and I have no reason to believe otherwise.
He's always been maniacal with physical training.
Older players take longer to recover.
They do, yeah.
Average player takes 12 months to come back from ACL.
He tore his ACL on January 20th.
I would be thrilled if we saw him before the All-Star break.
And I would be thrilled if he looked anywhere like Jimmy Butler at any point next year.
I think it's unrealistic.
I think the most likely scenario is he comes back.
He's minutes restricted.
He's a smart player because he's always going to be a smart player.
But there's that lack of like...
star level pop on a game to game basis that he used to be capable of because he's 37 years old off an ACL tear.
So from that perspective, I'm like, I don't know what you have to lose.
