Interestingly, i think his choice of 3 terrible rosters in huge markets is designed to give Minnesota a minimal return (which is in his interest). Like if he requested going to good teams someone like Portland could trade for him with the belief that it could work and they could be really good and convince him to stay. But no matter what they won't be a huge market and he's saying he doesn't really GAF about being on a good team (which i don't really believe).

This is what I thought as well, seems odd.

Don't know how I'd feel about it.

Jimmy is one step away from Russ in his ability to tease you into thinking he isn't capping your ceiling.

What in the world does the Clippers, Nets or Knicks even have to give for Butler? I want to see Butler to the Raptors or 76ers to make the NBA great again.

You think Brow is only "maybe" a top 15 player

Full disclosure, I think AD is slightly worse than his bulk-stats show, but that's like the difference between the #5 player ITL vs his stats saying he's #1/2.

What do you think is the minimum that Minnesota should accept rather than just having one more year of Butler and letting him walk?

The best return might look something like a first, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, Kenneth Faried, and Allen Crabbe for Jimmy Butler and Gorgui Dieng.

One more year of Butler is impossible. The whole team hates him. Twitter was full of friends and family of the wolves players rejoicing at the news.

Jimmy for Wilson Chandler+Zhaire+Korkmaz+Landry Shamet

3 1st rd picks and Wilson Chandler who can play 30mpg at the wing who actually fits great with Wiggins. Minnesota has MAX cap space next year from this deal too

Jimmy+Teague for Lowry-OG, trade Teague to PHX for Tyson Chandler+Dragan Bender

Van Fleet - Butler - Kawhi - Siakam - Jonas w Serge, Miles, Delon Wright, Danny Green and Norman Powell on the bench

Jimmy is a lock to get traded to a team that wants to win, its actually a really smart move by him.

She has a deep relationship with God, according to her social media.

Roberson, Ferguson, Abrines (1st rd pick swap) for Butler; who says no?

This makes the Raptors worse in the short and long term.

You can think what you want but Jimmy Butler is wayyyyyyy better than Lowry and Van Fleet is better than OG.

I heard this on the radio today. Literally no one in Minnesota does not despise Butler. This is popcorn worthy.

"smartest man in the room" got off real light. he's more than happy to throw money at his problems. team should have lost draft picks. guess owners agree with his slippery slope sentiment when there aren't tapes available (like there were for donald sterling)
