    Haha. If you want to disagree with me I’m ok with that. But I would say you’re the one being lazy if you’re trying to pit what I said against Clutch and Woj. Clearly not what I was referring to.

    Not frustrated at all. What was Khabib thinking at the end there????

    I see you Thibs...."keep pushing for more, knowing you won't get it" to sabotage deals to keep Butler in Minny.

    At this point I'll be really surprised if the Rockets land Jimmy.

    grrrr most of the tweets I see here are not loading any more. All I get is loading tweet and I can't figure out why. It's not adblock or tracking and everything was fine a week or so ago.. /ggrrrrrrrrrr

    Edit: Wait what, I hit reply and it shows up in my quote but not the original post?

    Edit # 2: After reloading to see replies it's now gone in my quoted post?

    For a one year rental, do we roll the dice and trade away EG and Tucker? Sometimes we need to stand pat and stick to our guns. Unless we got Jimmy Buckets long term.

    WTF. How are you about to finalize then ask for more? No one is going to want to deal with Minnesota after this.

    Apparently this Thibs FO has a reputation of being hard to work with, and they're even worse than normal for this Jimmy Butler situation.

    Sounds like the Heat got the same treatment the Knicks did to us for Melo last summer.

    Worse for the Heat. The Rockets had a deal until a new GM got put in position. That is what changed it.

    Situation now with the Heat is Thibs playing games. Get a deal on the table and then at the last minute demand more to piss off the Heat. Thibs can say he tried and get to keep Butler like he wanted all along.

    The question now is, will the owner step in and start pushing harder.
