    If I'm being honest, I would have traded CJ for Saric and Covington.
     
    Gronk Brady and Scalma like this.

    If Butler doesn't re-sign with Philly, Philly has really fucked up. Minnesota made out and solved a problem..Butler will have an easier path to the allstar team in the east and the playoffs for sure

    I hear Wolves were determined to trade him east. Makes total since.

    It'll be interesting to see how the offense looks. If they can get enough shooting on the floor and utilize Ben more as a PF on offense, I could see it working pretty well.

    Needed a closer too, and I think the personalities should mesh well. Both Ben a Joel play with a competitive edge.

    How they choose to fill out the rest of the roster will be important though, because as constructed, I still really like how Boston and Toronto matchup with them.
