    Any chance of still getting Butler?

    Do you think Miami would ever let him go, after they get the STEAL of the draft?

    We had heard earlier from DocRocket that the Houston management was about as excited about Butler as they were about Ming! I mean I'm glad we got Nachbar, but it would have been the dream draft if we'd have picked up Ming AND Butler. I was sure hoping we could have traded up to #9 or #10 to grab him...

    The chances are slim.

    Word is that Miami is shopping Eddie Jones, and Butler is his eventual replacement.

    If we want Butler so badly, I imagine Miami does too. I wouldn't shop Jones, unless they get a starting SF or SG back. Maybe there will be a deal with Memphis with Dickerson.
