If Wolves fans are allowed to legally throw objects at General Soreness on the court, I'm all for it.

I can't imagine teams will be lining up to offer a 4/$220M Max deal to an injury-prone, 36 year old malcontent.

I suspect Butler's trade value and demand will be far lower than his "name" value.

Both of those teams are in the 2nd Apron. PHO could only offer Durant (nobody is taking Beal's deal) and GSW could on offer Curry. And that's only if both of those guy's salaries are an exact match of Butler's right to very penny.

Trades involving even one (1) team in the Apron are nearly impossible under the new CBA.

Jimmy’s in full diva mode.

He go them to two NBA finals and an Easter Conference finals appearance as well, in his first five seasons, so that’s a good return for his five years.

He needs to find a new sandbox to play in.

Warriors among several teams back in the mix on Jimmy Butler as NBA trade deadline nears: Sources

The Golden State Warriors are back in the running for Jimmy Butler's services now that the Miami Heat have lowered their asking price, according to Yahoo Sports' Kevin O'Connor.

The Golden State Warriors are one of several teams back in the running for Jimmy Butler's services now that the Miami Heat have lowered their asking price, according to Yahoo Sports' Kevin O'Connor.

Momentum for a trade may be picking up one day after Butler's latest suspension by the Heat on Monday, his third this month. This suspension is "indefinite," after Butler apparently walked out of shootaround Monday morning after learning the team wasn't going to start him in their game against the Orlando Magic, according to ESPN's Shams Charania.

Butler will be suspended for a minimum of five games, which would run through the Feb. 6 trade deadline.
