    Can someone show a picture or point me in the direction to get Butler's fg% in different areas of the court?

    Things would be so much simpler if Peter Holt were willing to pay the luxury tax for just one freakin' season.

    *sigh*
    Spurs paid 3 times some luxury tax over these past 6 years. It's not a reach to think that Holt will be fine with paying it again this year. For all the reasons given in a previous post of this thread, it's a friendly year for Spurs to go a little over the threshold.

    You mean like the year he signed Richard Jefferson to a contract extension?

    if there is s sizable increase in revenue sharing then mayhaps he will be willing to up the budget if done in a way that appreciably helps the team. the larger market teams are likely to make noise if teams do not spend the money thats being shared.

    Butler has been declining, he's had serious injuries, not a good 3pt shooter, and he's 31. Basically, he's just about to become RJ. Wouldn't touch him with a barge pole.
    Holy - I would never have said he was 31. Best to look elsewhere in that case.

    How old is RJ? RJ might even be younger?

    Thanks P<S.

    It's now official: there is something cooking with RJ.

    It's either a trade or the amnesty rule and, to me, the amnesty rule makes little sense. Basketball wise, swapping RJ by Butler is quite a lateral move. Financially wise, amnestying RJ and signing Butler will likely be more expensive than just keeping RJ.

    My guess is that Spurs have a trade offer on the table they like. RJ will be gone in this trade and Spurs will get a bigman in return.

    Nothing is definitive for the moment but it should be on December 9th.

    IMO, Butler is going to Chicago.

    It would surprise me if he picks San Antonio, but who knows?

    Let's hope this is true, but it is really hard to imagine a trading partner. I'm trying to remember someone the Spurs may have targeted before that would make sense now but that is difficult.

    I really hope we don't have to get rid of Kawhi to dump him.

    I would celebrate like crazy if that came into fruition.

    Not exactly Butler related, but figured I'd throw this in here aswell.

    Assuming what Bruno said will actually happen, I wonder who the trading partner is and who will be involved. I doubt Kawhi gets dumped so fast because they gave up Hill for him. I don't think they would trade Hill just so they could trade the guy they got in return.

    The Josh Howard news makes it even more likely that it's a trade. using the amnesty rule on RJ to sign Howard makes zero sense: Spurs won't save money or get better on the court.

    Ive always though Butler would be a great player in the Spurs system. Hes a tremendous pick/roll player. Something Pop loves everyone to play great. Mason, Hill, and RJ are not great pick/roll players. Butler is and would shred defenses with all the options he would have.

    If we could get him, you all would be surprised

    ^

    If I had to bet on a trade, it would be RJ for Biedrins.
    Warriors are trying to sign Tyson Chandler or Nene...

    I think Jason Richardson, or Crawford ends up with the bulls.

    Butler is more suited for a SF anyways.

    I believe the Nets will throw all there money at Chandler, and Nene, and will land one of them, with the other going to the Warriors.

    Well, I guess you have to look for teams that have some sort of hole at SF and a big man to spare. Not a long list:

    UTA
    ATL
    Maybe GS (they seem to like Wright and drafted Klay Thompson)
    CLE
