Sources: Rockets have eyes on Jimmy B

With Tilmans financial struggles, makes sense.

 

Midnight?? Not 5:45 on Tuesday???

 

It's kinda hard to ignore those unknows tweets cause at this point we got solid confirmations by our insiders and from guys like Berman, Wolfson that the Rockets are trying hard and are in a good position...can't do anything if not wait and hope Morey and the crew can get this done...

 

if morey could figure out a way to not include tucker that would be pretty damn amazing... i'd imagine the wolves wouldn't view him as highly as we do, plus his relationship w harden has to weigh on it some.

 

Unless he's convinced like Playoff P with Russy.

Jimmy wants some shine...It would not surprise me to see him in LA with the LeBrons.

If I were the Lakers, I'd be in this trade conversation because I bet Magic could get Jimmy to stay in LA.

 

That's the reason you shouldn't believe them. It's trolls that are picking up information from here and are throwing random **** on the wall hoping to be right.

 

Butler would take the 5 year from Houston

 

I'm not convinced they'd offer it.

 

Hopefully they like another 1st instead of PJ...in the end, they have Gibson, a young athletic stretch four like Diop they just drafted...they don't exactly need PJ as much as they need Gordon imo. But from what ch said there're different deals on the table so, who knows, we'll see eventually.

 

I’d hope we wouldn’t. Thibs players break down after max deals

 

I'm off the James Butler train. Let's keep Gordon, Tucker & our picks!

*I was never really on the James Butler train to begin with.

 

At the same time, him leaving after 1 year would mean we have a 1 year window.

 

FIFY

 

So deep

 

I really don't want to be over optimistic (also cause we'll probably end up not getting him) but...if Paul George who had the chance to go home and play with Lebron stayed in OKC without even having any financial benefits, i think Butler staying in Houston should be a good bet to take all things considered...

 

Appreciate you cod. I was kinda shocked he gave me that much but I did start everything off by telling him how happy I was that he got the rockets and it was the best case scenario for us fans. He was a little hesitant with me at first but after that was really cool.

Still shocked me a bit but just a litttle more info on how it happened.

 

For whatever it's worth he said he called out the Kawhi to Toronto trade EDIT....looks like that might be bs..... his twitter feed doesn't seem trollish.

I guess we will see if he's our new potato head.

 

I agree, trying not to be optimistic about getting him.

However, if we did get him I wouldn't be optimistic about keeping him.
