Also what would happen if you swapped both players, how would the Bucks and Heat do from the 2019/20 season onwards? I’ll say this, I think Khris Middleton is an incredibly underrated player.

    Khris is sweatier, so if you’re asking who is better at being sweaty then its him.

    Hmmm, A Forward who’s only been a 2nd or 3rd option for most of his career or a Forward who’s been the Best Player on his team and made two finals appearances

    Obviously it’s Jimmy. But Khris has established himself that it’s not THAT crazy to compare. I see Khris like a tier below Butler/PG. Unfortunately his defense and lateral movement is trending down, but the man is good for 20/5/5 on nearly 50/40/90 when healthy.

    It’s Jimmy, but I do agree Middleton is underrated cause of his injuries but when he’s playing he’s still a bucket.

    Funny enough iirc there was a time a Khris for Jimmy trade was talked about

    Bro K Middy is a great player but Jimmy is a top 15 player when healthy.

          Based answer, the little backhanded compliment at the end… beautifully executed. I can’t be mad at that

    If Jimmy had a player the caliber of Giannis beside him, he would have at least 2 rings right now. Call me when Middleton leads his team to the finals twice as the number 1 option.

    Obviously it’s butler but Middleton is the perfect number 2 option for every team and if I had a legit superstar I would pick Khash over Jimmy as the 2nd option.

    Listen, I’d die for Khris Middleton. Every team should be able to experience a player like him being on their team in their lifetime.

    But it’s Jimmy, he’s better.

    Bro… it’s Butler by a thousand miles. That’s no knock on Middleton, great player, but you’re setting him up by even putting him in this conversation. He’s not touching Butler, not even close. This is like asking who’s better, Dejounte Murray or Jalen Brunson?

    Giannis has made some people think that Khris is something he isn’t!
