    There’s an easy way to avoid that feeling.

    I like how Beal said he'd waive the NT restriction for the Lakers, Heat and Nuggets...as if the Lakers, Heat or Nuggets want to trade for him and his 100+ million left on his contract (he sure as hell isn't opting out in 2026).

    I thought Jimmy said he’d play anywhere as long as it wasn’t in Miami?

    MEM isn't flashy enough for Jimmy. Does the guy actually think, at 82 y/o, he is anything other than a 3-4 option on a really good team?

    If we want NOLA to start winning, let’s hope this kid can stay healthy.

    I think the Bucks would have to give up their 2031 FRP, we would have to have a destination for Middleton and Phoenix gets too much without giving up draft compensation.

    So I guess I could go for us being the lynchpin of this deal as long as we get the Bucks 2031 FRP, the three SRPs that Phoenix has and know where we're flipping Middleton too for maybe even more draft compensation or a prospect along with a bad contract.

    Does Butler have the same agent as Dame? Pretty sure the Commish will slap down the agent if he too is telling specific teams not to trade for Butler.

    Sounds like Butler wants to go the Suns who have shit to offer. But Heat should just take their offer right?
    Fuck off every single heat fan and Heat media that gave POR a hard time. Now the shoe's on a different foot eh fuckers. Once again I bid you a'fuck you

    He doesn’t go off every night. Had best game of his career vs Lakers but averages 12 ppg.

    Ugh They’ve had the “easiest schedule” because they’re beating everybody so the teams they play have a worse record. This is why Washington has played the “Hardest schedule.” Get it? It’s a dumb stat.

    Butler is clearly a grade a douchebag. His agent is way out of line. You telling me if Jimmy wins a ring at MIL he won’t opt in?
