Big fun watching Toronto go 53-29 this year while nobody wants to be here or feels like giving more than minimal effort....

 

can't hlame Butler for wanting out, playing for a coach deemed a super genius (when he really hasn’t done a damn thing to deserve it) must suck

 

 

Hope the sixers can land him.

He doesn't really fit well their offense in my opinion. You already have Simmons to handle the ball, and he can't shoot. Embiid can but he's a big man and he's still in the lane. Fultz can't shoot, Butler can't also. It would be a cluster !@#$ in the lane with no spacing.

 

Chicago tried this already and it didn't work, granted not as talented players, but with Butler, Rose, or Butler, Wade, Rondo, with Noah and whoever, the European has been an upgrade. But they still lacked shooters to space the floor. Just my opinion. Butler could help them defensively, but he seems too expensive given his skillset. I wouldn't want my team wasting a max contract slot on a guy who is only excellent at defense and limited offensively.

 

I hope he goes to Miami so we can completely see the rerun disaster that was Chicago a couple years ago.

I honestly wouldn't mind it. Anything that gets KD out of Golden State is good for the league. The Warriors passe dominance of the league is bad for the NBA in my opinion. I know the ratings went down the first year Durant went to the Warriors but they went up last year so I don't think that ratings wise or business wise it makes much of a difference but I think personally having one team be so above and beyond better than the rest just makes the whole thing an exercise in futility. 

 

Give the Warriors their 4th and Durant their 3rd rings this year. Then lets see if Durant can go to the Lakers and win some and lets see if the Warriors original big 3 can win another one on their own. I still think Golden State would be title contenders without Durant and Boogie but they would be a normal beatable contender. 

 

I really have not enjoyed watching the NBA the past 2 years because I knew the Warriors would win if they didn't sustain injuries. It was just all too predictable. Even in the Rockets series when they got down I knew the Warriors would pull it out.

Make Butler stay in Minny, then send him to Toronto next summer when Kawhi ends his one year exile for the Raptors

 

not a bad deal in toronto, you go to a team that will win 55 games sleepwalking and the fan base cheers their little hearts out every game

Invented the O that consisted of making sure you got the ball to Michael or Shaq or Kobe with enough time for them to find a way to singlehandedly get to the basket.

 

But it didn’t work when Kwame was the player.  Mystery of mysteries.

and so it begins

 

i have every game to PVR that I want, but what is worth watching in the regular season?

 

need a team that is borderline for the playoffs and will try most nights and give an honest effort, probably out West as the East is a bigger fraud than ever without the King
