Jimmy Butler wants out? (He does.)

You still don't do that

They were no longer teammates and all he did was post a two word response that said "WELL DAMN!!". Basically, the PG-13 version of what every other straight male was thinking.

I guess bro code didn't exist in the 1970s?

I also don't think it was as big of a deal, and I know the media likes to run with any sort of controversy, but I really doubt wade was all pissed off about it.
 
Lets be real
She posts a pic like that and damn is a comment which is made.
Gabrielle Union is absolutely one of the most beautiful women on the planet.

Well Damn...
 
From what I have read; no reporter asked Olshey today if he was going after Butler. Are they gutless or just lack understanding of what fans are interested in?

They just know, like us, that it's not going to happen...

No, they probably understand that if he says anything about Butler, or any trade rumors, he's subject to fines. So he wouldn't say anything, so really, what would be the point?

Would that fall under the definition of tampering? "entice or induce a player under contract with another team to play for his team."
Has anyone ever been charged with tampering for saying they would be interested in trading for a player? Apparently a lot of GM's have told somebody they are interested in Butler. Couldn't they have at least asked what Olshey thought of the situation in Minnesota, or what he thought of Butler as a player? Did he think any character questions about Butler should keep teams from trading for him?

If Neil is after him though its best for Neil not to publicly say anything. He risks a) making minnesota upset or b) making Jimmy upset.

There's a difference between telling someone off the record and being asked on media day "say, are you interested in Butler".

Magic Johnson got fined for far less than that (I think it was about PG3, but I don't remember)
 
According to Woj, the Kings are wanting to use their cap space for draft compensation. How about this:

Blazers get Butler and Dieng

Kings get Leonard and a 2019 Blazers 1st

Wolves get Harkless, Aminu, and Trent

Blazers do it obviously because they get Jimmy Butler. Kings get the draft pick they want since they already traded away their 2019 1st. Minnesota gets some players that can contribute this year and a young wing but more importantly save $17 million this year and a crapload of money in future years.

The Blazers better hope their bigs stay healthy. Thats the concern Id have.
 
It would open up 2 roster spots to fill out big man depth. We'd have Collins, Nurk, Dieng, and Swanigan. Maybe we could get the Kings to throw in Skal or something too.
Id like them to add the guy that that played for houston that they brought in for camp.

I don't like losing both Aminu and Harkless. Gotta include Butters or Turner instead.
