    There’s nothing official, so hold the phones. Still it’s slim in any case.

    no 5pm ET.

    He has opted out now officially.

    We can still trade for him but the Heat are out.

    I'm also wondering this. Our Jimmy chances dramatically decrease if he doesn't opt in for a s&t I believe.

    Jimmy Butler would be a bad fit for the Rockets

    So now that Jimmy has opted out officially, what are the Rockets scenarios to acquire his services should he chose to come here?

    How did you arrive at this conclusion? The plan was always a SIGN AND TRADE not an opt-in and trade.

    Basically this:

    HOU GETS: Butler and maybe some sweeteners by Boston

    BOS GETS: Capela

    PHI GETS: Gordon, Smart and maybe a pick
