    So most likely Butler would have to also take a discount to make it work for Miami..

    Meeting with the Heat 1st huh? He's a goner. Morey/Rockets lost and destroyed any chance of team chemistry for next season.

    The only good points i can see here are:

    - Miami is in the East, Philly might prefer to send Butler to the other conference

    - Jimmy won't have a chance to win in Miami, now i don't clearly remember their cap situation, but assuming they would trade Richardson and that i don't see what top player they can trade for or sign next season, i don't really think he would have a chance to win there.

    Mr. Daryl (Almost Had A Deal) Morey after he loses out on Butler.......

    I like our team
    We are the favorites going into next season
    We still have our full MLE to sign a high level FA
    Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah

    My money is on Miami if it's between us and them to land JB

    they will have to include some of their albatross like Waiters or Olynyk. Who would take them?

    I just don't get the Miami interest at all. The team is hot garbage with a pretty poor cap situation and zero guys you'd rank in the top 30 in the league. I get the interest based on Miami as a destination and Wade's influence, but if he picks Miami, he's wasting the rest of his prime to play for a team that has zero chance of contending for the foreseeable future.

    That would be hilarious...he's all about getting paid, just to end up leaving money on the table to sign with a 1st round team.

    The Rockets Vipers coach now will be a coach for Philly. What a horrible off season. Losing coaches. Putting all but Harden up for trade. To a Tomball native that won't sign with the Rockets. To have an owner that says money is not the problem, but trades 1st round picks to save money. That has a team that tells the World that we will get Butler.To a team that has ruined team chemistry. Nothing left to do but try to find some very rich person to buy this rag tag team.

    IF the Heat want to give Butler the max AND not have to stretch Rhyno then they will have to find a team to dump 38 millions!
    Good luck with that.
