PrintIf there's professional basketball next year (which, sources tell me, is a very big if), Jimmy Butler will probably be on a team. Tonight, we find out where he's going.
In the comments, please: your prediction for where Jimmy's going to land, who's going to take him, and how many times Jay Bilas will use the words "tough kid" to describe him.
Please enjoy.

#25 to the Celtics
There’s a reason why JB went from 45 to 25 on Chad Ford’s list in about 10 days, and I think someone told Ford that the C’s won’t let him go by.
Restoring carousel. Come help.
I think the Thunder grab him.
And Bilas will say “tough” three times.
We pull our pants up and do our jobs here.
Keep that in mind
Next year, when everyone’s raving about what a great college season it was & how stacked the draft is.
Lockout = guys stayed in school. They’re not idiots.

Bucks had no need for him
but it would’ve been fun to see Kemba in the BC next year. Alas.

I can't wait...
For 12 years from now when all the talk radio callers are yelling about how the Bucks drafted Jimmer Fredette and then stupidly traded him for ___________.
No they did NOT. That was Sacto’s pick all the way. Just like that Nowitzki pick was Dallas’s from the start.

Ya know, I heard something about that
Did you know he was a donkey of a player for the Milwaukee Bucks AND they traded the guy that won the NBA title this year to get him?

Also:
was this a shot at Doug Russell, with the talk radio callers line? That’s cold, dude.

It was if you want it to be
Though I really was just referring to the callers.

Correct me if I'm wrong
Wasn’t Marcus the superior Morris twin? Just goes to show you how little college success means to NBA scouts.

that's what I thought too
atleast he’s the guy the bucks really wanted..

Wow, good call.
Maybe Zack goes next and makes it a trifecta.

Apparently
What we don’t know is that Marcus actually walked up first, and that was Markeiff. It’s a little game they like to play.

What the hell is Leonard wearing?
He looks like he should be playing sax in a 60s jazz ensemble.

Naturally
ESPN goes to commercial when the Bucks are up. Marshon anyone?

Don't really know who that is
So he’s perfect for the NBA. Maybe he’ll be awesome… I have no clue.

I'm a little concerned with that first name.
I hope he’s not a nevernude.

Noted Louisville killer and MY GUY! Kenneth Faried to the Nuggets

Jackson to OKC
I guess that “promise” they allegedly made him was true after all.

C'mon Doc!

Word in the hood is this is Marshon Brooks here
Damn.

Damn.
Well, Jimmy can go to the Bulls and shut down Marshon all over again.

Coincidentally:
Jimmy’s highlight package shows the 24 that Marshon missed in the two games JMFB was guarding him.

I guess Paul Pierce is just about on his last legs.
They’ll need another chucker there in a couple of seasons.

How bout Jimmy to the Mavs?

Boston moved down to 27.
& sent Brooks to the Nets.
Keep breathing…

YES!
We own the no. 30 pick!

I love seeing our guys get drafted
I’ve said it a thousand times, but I’ll say it again… The feeling I felt when Dwyane Wade got picked by the Heat, was the closest I’ll ever come to the feeling of actually being drafted myself.

That must have been quite a feeling!
With all the nonsense going on with the athletic program at MU with the whole assault stuff, its nice to have some sort of good news….

So much for Chuck and Wickett's Leuer/Butler breakdown
Their take:
Leuer – mid to late first
Butler – Mid 2nd if at all
Why was I listening to that shit, you ask. I’m a glutton for punishment.

So you start listening
AFTER the only guy who had half a clue is let go?

No no
I’d always check in for a listen every now and then when both Mike n Mike and Bob & Brian were on commercial. This was one of those instances.

Ah.
I haven’t heard Chuck and Wickett on their own yet. I imagine it’s the same show, with at least 50% less insight.

At least.

We’re against Leuer being drafted at all, right?

Best part here?
JB can step right in and start over Keith Bogans for the team with the best regular season record last season.

yup
hes a perfect backup to Deng, who basically plays SF the entire game without a break. My favorite player goes to my favorite team!
I'd just as soon never hear another word from that fluttering asswheel. - RWShow

First Stephen Jackson, now Leuer?
At least I know I don’t have to follow the Bucks at all this year.
We pull our pants up and do our jobs here.
I'm intrigued by Jackson
If his head’s right he’s a helluva ball player. Everyone that ever plays with him says he’s a great teammate. As long as he doesn’t shoot up any clubs, he could be alright.

The only bigger IF in the NBA
is Ron Artest, I think. This is going to end disastrously.

Give me Josh Selby!

Did I miss something?
Did the Bucks trade Ilyasova? Isn’t Leuer the EXACT same player?
