    The NBA will find a way. No one cooperates with the Rockets.

    They still moved Dragic to a third team, but on paper they could've done a two team trade.

    Derek Bodner: With JJ Redick leaving, the #sixers can make a potential Jimmy Butler sign and trade while being an under the cap team,meaning Butler would not be subject to the BYC rules. Functionally, this means two team deals with either the Rockets or Heat would be possible now.

    Why do I feel like Butler was just a smokescreen and another player has been the target the entire time?

    The most afterthought big move of the offseason is Butler taking up shuffleboard in south beach.

    Could be a foundation of a superteam but Butler is not a foundational player, could be early retirement. Good luck with the back end of his contract.
