    I can't wait for the summer of 2023 when everyone on this board starts complaining about how bad this trade was and that we shouldn't have given up the pick.

    just better hope that CP3 doesnt turn into a pumpkin for the last year or 2 of that contract - cause we aint gonna have the assets to get out from under it... and Tilman is gonna eat it along with the luxury and repeater taxes ...jus sayin...lol

    We didnt have the picks to move Ryno when we were trying to swap him for Melo... (which really was a good thing or else he's be here with a 23M/yr deal - wouldnt the people losing their crap with him on a min just be in total meltdown if that were the case - lol.).. we were only able to move him cause we took back equally bad contracts of broken toys - whereas i guess they had hope they could fix Ryno... if CP3 breaks down - there aint gonna be no moving him - period...

    No, he realized it a longtime ago. He's been after Butler the entire off-season. But, you don't make your best offer at the beginning of negotiations. Now, he's made his final offer. Well, maybe.

    With an offer like that DM is not here for the long term, IMO. That will cripple us for the foreseeable future —> long after he is gone.

    Wow just wow

    So how are we gonna match salary for butler if we keep Gordon and tucker ?

    Chriss and knight ?

    **** , at this point Anderson and Melton looks like a better offer .

    You maximize your window NOW.

    Paul is old and Harden is damn close.

    Paul/Harden/Butler is good enough to win a title NOW

    Well, we can still trade him to the Fakers, you know Lebron would force them to make the trade fot his buddy...lol

    Jokes aside, i get what you're saying, but at this point, we can either act like we're guaranteed to be in the finals, or do what it takes to try to make that happen...let's see if the deal materialize first, if there's any protection on the picks and if Butler resigns here, if he would stay and at least one pick ends up being protected, we would be fine all things considered imo.

    Right? CP3, Melo, Tuck are all on their last stretches of their careers. I have no desire to see Harden playing with a bunch of Tjones and Sam Deckers. Get this team a damn ring.
