Supposedly Chicago is interested in #2 pick, Heat trying to get 3 team trade to acquire him as well. Maybe Rockets should get involved, trade Capela or Bev for a first rounder and package with Ariza. Sign Noah/Biyombo and Deng/Dudley for under max contracts, call it a night.
So would it be Lakers/Bulls/Rockets or a 4 way trade because Miami doesn't have the #2 pick. I wouldn't trade Capela or Bev for a first rounder. I don't want Dudley either. I'd be happiest with Biyombo/Deng but idk how likely that is
Rumors are all over the internet. Look it up. http://www.silverscreenandroll.com/2016/6/23/12018926/nba-trade-rumors-la-lakers-jimmy-butler-2016-draft-brandon-ingram http://hoopshype.com/storyline/jimmy-butler-trade/
Might as well pencil in Butler as a celtic...makes too much sense for both teams. Chicago clearly blowing it up now, so why keep Butler? He's the only long term deal they have left now. Grab a high pick instead.... Rockets need to go after Dunleavy.
The Vertical talking about a Minny/Chicago deal involving Dunn for Butler. hmm. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Minnesota and Chicago still in serious talks on a Jimmy Butler deal centered on fifth pick Kris Dunn, league sources tell <a href="https://twitter.com/TheVertical">@TheVertical</a></p>— Adrian Wojnarowski (@WojVerticalNBA) <a href="https://twitter.com/WojVerticalNBA/status/746140855065534464">June 24, 2016</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Zach Levine is the deal breaker. Is Thibs nuts, give up Levine & Dunn for Butler already. Butler KAT Wiggins Dieng That is a very good line up even if they have to keep Rubio.
I hope Butler doesn't go the Wolves. Another All-Star guard in the West who can defend Harden (although Harden has mostly owned him 1 on 1). We don't need another Western playoff contender.
