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?

moistest hoist (Spottie), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:06 (eight years ago) link

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/

lag∞n, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:13 (eight years ago) link

hahaha butler must be like noooooo

k3vin k., Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:13 (eight years ago) link

more 39-minute per game seasons

k3vin k., Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:13 (eight years ago) link

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

moistest hoist (Spottie), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:14 (eight years ago) link

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

lag∞n, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:16 (eight years ago) link

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

lag∞n, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:17 (eight years ago) link

yeah

moistest hoist (Spottie), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:21 (eight years ago) link

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

moistest hoist (Spottie), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:24 (eight years ago) link

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

moistest hoist (Spottie), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:24 (eight years ago) link

ya thats not good

lag∞n, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:36 (eight years ago) link

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

lag∞n, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:38 (eight years ago) link

otm

moistest hoist (Spottie), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 17:43 (eight years ago) link

wiggins isn't that good i would do it

J0rdan S., Tuesday, 14 June 2016 19:01 (eight years ago) link

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

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

tsrobodo, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 20:31 (eight years ago) link

where does zach lavine fit in this twolves universe? 2nd unit scorer?

ciderpress, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 20:33 (eight years ago) link

i really don't think they want to trade wiggins though

ciderpress, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 20:35 (eight years ago) link

wiggins has too much upside to trade he scored 20pts a game on 46% shooting in his 20 y/o season and is built like some sort of basketball robot, which is not to say theyre arent some troubling signs w his 3pt shooting defense and animic assist and rebound numbers, the way he plays now hes basically a one dimensional chucker who cant even shoot from deep, but i think u still gotta roll the dice and see if he can improve his weaknesses, hes also the same age as KAT so they cn develop together

lag∞n, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 20:59 (eight years ago) link

players like wiggins just dont get traded at this stage in their careers is how i break it down to an extent

lag∞n, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 21:00 (eight years ago) link

The same age thing is compelling, in an unrelated way I think a butler type guy- early prime, got some experience in the OFFS, would be great to mix in to that group

gis for westbrook shark jump (agent hibachi), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 22:18 (eight years ago) link

I'm guilty of mostly going on eye test with Wiggins where every time I watched he seemed to have little to no noticeable effect on the game

gis for westbrook shark jump (agent hibachi), Tuesday, 14 June 2016 22:18 (eight years ago) link

its not a perfect trade but an opportunity like this does not come up often

micah, Tuesday, 14 June 2016 23:11 (eight years ago) link

the wolves would be crazy to do that trade, come on

k3vin k., Wednesday, 15 June 2016 00:18 (eight years ago) link

they do not need to get older when the warriors are still in god mode. let them develop

k3vin k., Wednesday, 15 June 2016 00:19 (eight years ago) link

I would be a terrible general manager. I don't have one coherent idea about a butler for wiggins trade. I can assess the play of teams and players, if I can watch them playing together, but a trade requires imagining the effect of a player who isn't yet on your team, while also imagining the effect of losing the player you trade away. Plus all the intricate league rules and contractual details. I'm pretty sure I'd suck at it.

there are probs fewer good GMs than there are 25ppg players

micah, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 02:51 (eight years ago) link

grizz apparently scared conley is on the run, and so begins free agency

if young slothrop don't trust ya i'm gon' rhyme ya (slothroprhymes), Wednesday, 15 June 2016 15:39 (eight years ago) link

conley is a good player & i get why the grizz don't want to tear down and rebuild buuuuuuuuuuuuut i dunno if i'm signing up to give mike conley $125 million

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 15 June 2016 15:42 (eight years ago) link

wonder what team conley wld make sense on the league is so stacked at that position, maybe houston if diantoni get harden to play off the ball more

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 15:47 (eight years ago) link

he needs to go east, they need help

moistest hoist (Spottie), Wednesday, 15 June 2016 16:01 (eight years ago) link

can the knicks sign anybody? they could use conley.

call all destroyer, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 16:03 (eight years ago) link

tru

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 16:04 (eight years ago) link

wld think hes looking to go to a better team tho

lag∞n, Wednesday, 15 June 2016 16:04 (eight years ago) link

apparently he's thinking about them

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 15 June 2016 16:05 (eight years ago) link

it's entirely possible that the knicks would be the team w/ the brightest future who is interested in them. they'll prob be better than memphis in 3 years.

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 15 June 2016 16:05 (eight years ago) link

interested in him***

J0rdan S., Wednesday, 15 June 2016 16:05 (eight years ago) link
