Malcontent is probably too strong, but he is NOT a mentor of young players, and that's been do ented at both of his NBA stops.
Isn't Butler a known malcontent? He'd have to come cheap for me to be happy, and doubt the Wolves wouldn't find better offers.

Pulling a Kawhi![]()
It was probably Derozan.
Darn, if Jimmy tells them he wants out, I hope the Spurs try to get him.
The other day I heard that the Raptors wanted him. I really don't want him to go there.
I could live with anything that rids us of Gasol's contract. When I had done the Butler trade on the ESPN Trade Machine back in July and knew there was no hope left of keeping KaWhitter I had some form of trade that worked where Minny got KL and we got Jimmy Butler. When I worked it with Gasol and Mills it was where we'd get Jimmy Butler and Taj Gibson at Power Forward. There was one other spur involved but, I don't remember who I used. I just don't think Pop would give up his two facvorite guys...PG & PM. But we still need an athletic wing with experience and who can score consistently. JMHO
FWIW:I'd still trade PG & PM for Otto Porter. It would give Washington some NBA Finals experience off their bench and in the locker room/practice. Gotta dream big these days.
Only if he doesn't show up.
Kawhi-PTSD triggers reading tweets like this
I mean if he agrees to an extension, anybody besides DD & LMA should be available tbh.
Mills walker and a first. See if you can give up pau
Welp...
Surprised no lakers but clippers
I see it as one less spot to compete for in the playoffs! They’re our first game too so good warmup.
I assume he wants to be the main guy.
Not everyone is interested in playing with LeBron.
Nets, Clippers, and Knicks. I mean, yeah, cap space, but hardly quality franchises . Ambition seems to be money, big city. It's MELO 2.0. Winning???? Meh....
So, if you're West do you trade for Butler now or holdout out for Kawhi for next year?
Trade for butler and Kawhi will come
I don't think they can get both. They don't have the cap room to absorb him in trade now, which means they'll need to send out some of those ending contracts that will create their room for next summer. I doubt Minnesota will take on any long term deals.
I would LMAO if West trades for Butler, and Magic signs Klay next summer, shutting the Nephew out of the LA market.
Murray, Walker and Gasol for Jimmy, do it Brent!
Not serious are you?
I don't see them trading for Butler either. They would have to give up Gilgeous-Alexander who looks like a real player. All they'd have to do to sign both Butler and Leonard next summer would be finding someone to take either Lou Williams or the expiring deal on Montrezl Harrell.
Odd. Why would Butler care about a destination team's cap space next summer if his Bird rights transfer in a trade?
