Holic: "Anthony Tolliver was almost a Rocket a week ago." CF: "Tolliver can't be traded until Dec 15." Holic: "Exactly. A week ago, they were talking about him becoming a Rocket on Dec 15." LMMFAO Holic's tap shoes must be worn out, considering all the dancing he does around here.
At this point to me (unless I’m not seeing something) ... EG/filler/picks, is as good as Minnesota is likely to get. Seems to me that this might be more about HOUSTON not being too keen on adding Jimmy than it is about Minny wanting to give him up to us. I see much of this spectacle from all parties about Jimmys next CONTRACT more than anything. Unfortunate for Jimmy, teams like Brooklyn etc might be a little squeamish about a max contract for Butler too. What might become prevalent in the coming weeks is that the team with the best path to leverage the most money out of in a year might very well be Minnesota. FYI- I don’t buy the bs about winning. It’s about winning on his terms as it usually is with star players.
Told Tolliver can't be traded until Dec 15th,,,we get this Did the same sauce who was wrong about the date Tolliver would be traded, correct the error and say Dec 15th, or was it another guy? You know, only amateurs include recently-signed free agents in trades prior to Dec 15th deadline. It's not a mistake the legit sauces ever make. See, this is what many are talking about. Giving an opportunity to say, "Oops, I was wrong. My source was wrong about the date Tolliver could be traded." You choose not to. cyberx and Codman will say when they are wrong about news. But, yet again, here you double down and refuse to admit your sauce is an amateur.
So now you’re trying to redecipher code words that have already been deciphered in order to try and Coopt a credible insider
What value are they losing? Trading Butler for Richardson means they get to be 9-10th seed for the next 3 years. Why do you feel that is so appealing to them?
Before the article’s print fades into the “you must be subscribed to this s*** to read it” gray area, it says that Taylor intends to keep working diligently on a trade to get Butler out of there. I’m telling ya. October 31st. Even if it’s a trade a trois with Miami or Sacramento or whatever, Butler to here or to elsewhere, something to get as many draft picks in play as possible. Or.........not.
Because they'll get the 9-10 seed by the next season anyway? I'm also not sure how you and hakeem are so confident they'll have a good ride this season if Butler stays, that's a toxic lockeroom if there's one out there, good luck in having a great season, just look at what happened with us in the last season we had Dwight here...sure, Butler is not Dwight, but KAT and Wiggins are not Harden, Ariza etc... As for the value well, i don't know what assets are really on the table, but seems like at least Richardson and 1st rounder were offered, that's not bad value considering the situation, Butler will be gone 100% in 7 months so, you may not like Richardson, but with his contract and age he's a pretty good fit in Minnesota. Pacers took back what was considered bad value in Oladipo and Sabonis, look at them now...and think about what would they have if they would've hold on to George instead of making a trade...maybe a first round exit and a trash roster, which is exactly what Minnesota will be after Butler bolts for free in 7 months.
Butler wants to be paid. Dwight was already paid and would be paid regardless. Also why in the world wouldn’t Minnesota be good with him? They were a disaster last year with Towns playing no defense and Wiggins sucking and still would’ve been the 3rd seed had Butler not be injured. I know people have short memories here but you don’t have to think too far back when the Wolves were easily a top 4 seed in the West.
Didn't give me any dates. Talks were a week ago. There way deal may be reconstructed end if month or wolves may defer to December. You seem what happened today. Peace for today with future promises.
Would love to get WCS from SAC if he's on table. Stay strong Cod, we need you man. All prayers and best wishes sending your way.
