Currently? Yes. At their peaks, Kawhi was otherworldly.

A lot of people on this site have called giannis a super mega star and never rank butler over him despite butler generally having his number and whooping his ass even playing with less help.
So everybody has been underrated Jimmy butler.
To be fair Butler and Giannis have traded series wins the past 4 years. They are pretty equal

wtf track record are you looking at?

Kobe never lost with a number 1 seed to an 8th seed. That’s for damn sure

Quite the contrary... Kobe used to catch big heat for losing as a 7 seed.

Eh, he was the sidekick bro, most definitely for the first one. Is Kobe really the closest to Jordan when 4 other guys have more FMVP's than him?

He was no Pippen lmao. Pippen wasn't a closer. He was the best player in the world in '01 at 22 yrs old. Real finals were played out West but we don't need to have this argument every single time.

Re: Is Jimmy Butler better than Kawhi?
If we are talking all-time legacy of players in the game all-time for me..
1. Lebron James
2. Steph Curry
3. Chris Paul
4. Giannis Antetokounmpo
5. Kwahi Leonard
6. Kevin Durant
7. James Harden
8. Jimmy Butler
9. Nikola Jokic
10. Joel Embiid
11. Damian Lillard
12. Klay Thompson
13. Anthony Davis
14. Luka Doncic
15. Jason Tatum
16. Russell Westbrook
17. Kyrie Irving
18. Kevin Love
19. Paul George
20. Draymond Green
I don't think he can pass Harden this year...but he has easily established himself as a top 50 player. And I think he's better than mr "advanced stats" MVP.
