    All signs point to Butler pushing to make this happen.

    It's being discussed! Just like Holic always tells us about everything HE wishes the Rockets would do!

    Really glad Butler is being PROACTIVE right now. Too much leverage on Minny's side with other teams not winning. Butler evens it out by not playing and forcing Minny to make a decision.

    Well....

    With Paul and Capela looking like this...no, that team wouldn't go anywhere special.

    I do think Paul and Capela will improve as the season goes along, but do I think that team will beat this Warriors team? No, I do not. Melo, MCW, the backup big men are all too much of a liability. And that doesn't even factor the freedom of movement BS that has essentially killed our ability to switch on defense.

    Lol, my band used to play that song back in the day. I hated it, but the drummer loved it.

    This just seems that Jimmy is starting to apply pressure, not that anything is immanent.

    See, Jimmy Butler saw this.....and knew he had to be PROACTIVE to lessen the Wolves leverage.

    A trade is going down. They decline Justin Patton meaning they’re getting a C back
