    I’ll take that rumor trade all day of Horford Hayward for Clint and EG.

    in order to have max cap to sign kemba the Cs have to send out smart and yabusele. its possible that we land boston's 2020 pick. hopefully morey held out for memphis' pick which might require sending smart/yabusele to a 3rd team like the suns who can send the bucks first back to boston. could also see a complicated scenario where kemba is signed to their cap space, and they acquire capela by resigning horford above the cap and trading him to us or to the sixers with butler coming to us.

    The difference is that Clint's "bib" is GIGANTIC. Much bigger than any bib any other Rockets center has had, cuz those fools were dropping Harden's Mustard all over their clothes...

    If Morey can turn Clint and Gordon into Butler and Jaylen Brown then he should be the front runner for GM of the year

    I don't know if the Rockets could fit Butler + Jaylen's salary, I don't think so. Plus we couldn't extend him next season and would leave.

    I see Ainge creating more room to absorb Clint's contract in exchange of the Grizzlies pick. Then we could get something really interesting with that pick. I would bet for a rookie scale contract.

    I wonder if Clint asked James if he was being traded......

    I think he knows that if Jimmy give us the green light then he's gone, but I also think that he's cool with that. Clint seems like a cool guy.

    is there a specific time that Butler has to make his decision if he opts in or out?

    It is today, the 29th, but I don't know if there is a specific time. He has to officially "opt-in" or do nothing (on his way to FA).

    Thank you Deuce.
    I'm certain there should be a specific time like with all nba deadlines, right?

    So in other words if we hear nothing until the end, it means he opted out..I saw sportrac has him already listed as having opted out..

    I read that it’s 5 p.m. EST. Free agency starts at 6 pm EST tomorrow so I assumed it was 24 hours before.

    I'll bet that blonde streak had something to do with it.
