    Do not want DeRozan, therefore, do not want Butler either.

    Butler has a better 3 and slightly better defense. Derozan is better at pretty much everything else. Also is bigger and longer. While Butler is a better fit for the Spurs. I would rank them relatively equal in talent and overall value.

    Butler's defense is waaaay better, not even in the same universe..he's an all-NBA defender, while DeRozan is one of the worst in the league, bad enough that his new coach has already called him out in it

    Butler is also in a different league as a passer..

    I'm not a big fan of his, but he's a top 15 player..

    I get why he wants out of Minny, their franchise player doesn't play any defense. He knows that if one of them's got to go its going to be him

    Apparently Pau Gasol might be trying to recruit him to the Spurs, which explains why he’s so open to the media regarding Kawhi.

    They were rumored to be getting Kemba to help Kawhi out before Kawhi wanted a trade, probably would have to trade Murray and some pieces.

    I can see your point but Derozan just has a knack for scoring. He passes the eye test to me and has good length to be a 2 or 3. I imagine with proper coaching he will be just fine on the defensive end too.

    Definitely the best player that's somewhat realistic to get back in a Kawhi trade.

    Of course, Butler is just a rental himself.

    Poor man's Kawhi and still way better than anything they'll get in a trade for him. I'd like to see him on the Spurs. Will never happen tho'.

    It would be the best assist he's done all year.

    I would be okay with Butler to the Spurs because it would mean sending Kawhi to ing Minnesota.

    That's going in as raw as keeping him all year and letting him walk, except we get a player in return. He's not staying there, so he'd have no other choice than 4/$139M.

    That sounds like Danny Green trying to recruit Lebron.

    Butler barely moves the needle for me. One of those 'stars' that doesn't win basketball games. A Jerry Stackhouse type.
    That is definitely not an accurate description of Butler. The dude basically carried the wolves team to the playoffs last year. They sucked without him.
