i have something to say about the offseason THE 2016 NBA OFFSEASON

today in complete non-surprises:

REPORT: Celtics are really shopping the #3 pick, 'trying to be as aggressive as possible'. (CSNNE)

cavs shd trade love before the seasons over

haha

feel like he might not love being on the cavs

hes so cool looking

he should be on GoT

yung wolves willing to trade the no. 5 (and I guess some other stuff) for jimmy butler

Are the Bulls wanting to hit the reset button?

they should if they don't want to be in the middle for like 6 more years. but they're only "listening to offers" thus far. if they do rebuild, they should consider doubling down & trying to get something decent (or even just take someone's expirings) for rose at the deadline from a team in need of a rental who's willing to get a little crazy (can we say mavs?).

it's a modified version of the trade I'd much rather have for the celtics than lil kev and his chocolate milk but if the wolves pull it off that's dope too, can't hate on them

wolves shd absolutely do that trade for butler, thatd be a steal imo

celtics can top that

getting butler wld be sick

butler and isiah and kd is overkill imo

ya maybe

celtics trading the no. 3, avery bradley, one of the young dudes (rozier, young) and a few seconds for butler would be a win win for all involved, especially bc bulls should draft a new guard and move on from rose

what would anyone even do w/ rose

oh I mean they'll let him ride out his contract I'm sure, although dumping him as a rental in February wouldn't be impossible imo. next offseason he's all kinds of gone

i guess i mean more, like, i don't really get what his place in the league is going to be., and how does that stack up with his self-perception

ah. yeah I got no idea, he's got to have poisoned the well in terms of his media and general fan perception for many teams/markets. but I could totally see him on the Knicks in a year by FA or even sooner by trade, bc I can see dolan/phil falling for the illusion of his marquee value

or some other hapless market (please not the kings those fans have suffered enough)

in not news david west has opted out and will probs retire

CBS Sports NBA @CBSSportsNBA
Report: Bulls won't trade Jimmy Butler to Wolves unless they get Andrew Wiggins

interesting

yeah that is. they are four years apart in age. but wiggins on that rookie contract and will need to get that new big $$ at the end of that where Jimmy's contract will look really great if he continues to play at the pace he has been.

what else would have to be included? a pick?

wiggins has a higher ceiling but theres no guarantee hell pan out, jimmys already a very good two way player, obvs theres no way the wolves do it but its interesting to think abt

the attached article doesnt have any further details xp http://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/report-bulls-wont-trade-jimmy-butler-to-wolves-unless-they-get-andrew-wiggins/

thibs just wants his old crew back, trade wigg for jimmy, sign noah and start him over kat, rubio for d rose straight up

lol thats our thibs [shrug]

hahaha butler must be like noooooo

more 39-minute per game seasons

butler doesnt like hoiberg i bet he'd be cool with thibs

doesnt sound like hes going anywhere, bulls setting the price too high

which is reasonable hes a very good player getting the #3 pick in the draft or w/e just isnt worth it

yeah

he wasn't quite the same this year after he came back from his mcl sprain but he was having a great year prior

he only shot 32% from three tho. gotta get that up obv

ya thats not good

seemed like a lot of last season was some combo of overused and injured, hes prob best suited to being a second scoring option/lockdown defender, where the bulls were using him as a first option and his D suffered because of it

otm

brad would make such good use of him

i knowww my god

isaiah/jimmy backcourt wld be soo tite

yessss ainge do that shit cuz

wiggins isn't that good i would do it

Yeah I would jump on that right now if I were the wolves i think butler towns Rubio could get you rolling right away, maybe Wiggins has tons of potential but butler is real good now

*prays based danny jumps on it first*

Would not trade a guy averaging 20 ppg his second season in the league at age 20 for Jimmy Butler.
