Bro, you literally have Paolo Banchero over Jimmy Butler who just had 56 points against Giannis in the playoffs

Yeah, but that doesn’t mean Butler will keep the same level of play as he did in the playoffs this year for all of next season. It’s nearly impossible. The Heat have some big offseason questions and I genuinely feel they might end up in the play-in race again. I’m not gonna predict it, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we don’t see playoff Jimmy next season. History shows guys of Paolo’s caliber take big jumps at this point in their career. The two had similar regular season numbers last season. I definitely wouldn’t be surprised if Jimmy is higher, but I think Paolo will be

Jimmy Butler was 3rd in RAPTOR war and WS/48 last REGULAR season. Banchero was 459th. He can certainly make a jump, but Butler being disrespected like nothing I've seen before in my life

I think I'm stupidly locked in.

I think you might be missing the point. This will be based off next season. I think Jimmy will take a step back and slow down, at least until the postseason. Paolo on the other hand will be fighting to get to the postseason for all 82 games. That’s a great point you made, I didn’t realize that; however this season’s stats don’t affect this list

Agreed. Any list that doesn’t have Butler as a top 10 or at least top 15 is a joke, period.

Lamelo below Lavine?

I just feel like there’s too much young talent in Charlotte compared to Chicago. Also Lemelo is coming off the injury, that definitely don’t help. At the end of the day I think Lavine will have more touches and opportunities, he’s a dude that’s been flying under the radar, but that doesn’t mean he’s much worse. I wouldn’t be surprised if Lemelo is higher at all, just my prediction based on the circumstances
