Detroit Pistons: Ranking the Eastern Conference backcourts
Detroit Pistons: Eastern Conference backcourt rankings
#1: Miami Heat
I consider Jimmy Butler a backcourt player, although if you don’t, I would still put them here. Kyle Lowry is still a top point guard in the league, Tyler Herro and Duncan Robinson are two of the best shooters in the game right now, and Victor Oladipo, when healthy, is a star.
Oladipo is not yet 30, finally healthy, and back with a vengeance. They also have perhaps the single most intense player in the league: Jimmy Butler.
In the regular season, Jimmy Butler is for sure an All-Star. In the playoffs, he might be the best player on the planet.
dark. Next. Should the Pistons make an offer on Sexton?
Jimmy Butler, Paul George, Kawhi Leonard, and Giannis are the best two-way players in the game right now. Every single one of them will make the Hall of Fame. Even including the Western Conference, you’d be hard pressed to find a better backcourt.
