Who won the breakup and why: Philadelphia 76ers or Jimmy Butler?

In any breakup, there is a ‘winner’ and a ‘loser.’ It has been a couple of years since the Philadelphia 76ers and Jimmy Butler parted way, it is time to call the break-up winner in the Eastern Conference.

A glow-up is nearly a requirement for winning a breakup. At first glance, I would go with the men in blue over Jimmy’s dreads lewk in his 2022-2023 NBA headshot. But… Philly’s glow-up was a costly one. It took some time to unload Ben Simmons and get a new stud on the Philadelphia 76ers. Appearance-wise, Harden’s beard is iconic, he can be seen on and off the court playing around with his teammates, and his bromance with Embiid is adorable.
