    I agree, I think it can play both ways it can help and it can hurt

    No. He's too old and injury prone. Just run it back.

    I see both sides of the argument but lean towards "no" for all the great reasons already outlined. Age and health are just not on his side.

    I'd rather take our chances with someone younger, like BI, versus invest in JB.

    Nah. Dude misses a lot of games, and he's not getting younger.

    Pass on Butler. Keep the rebuild on schedule unless a star is available who fits the timeline.

    No guys that can't stay healthy - 35 is too old.

    Butler wants the Rockets to help up his pay in Miami. The Rockets should say, "Don't want nor need the guy. We think he's overpaid."
