We have a "treadmill" team, but apparently are just sitting on all of these amazing deals that are just gonna instantly turn us into a contender. That's because you're looking at things through the lens of the magic. Our circumstances don't apply to other teams. Like Vuc would probably be awesome on the thunder because they're not doing the same thing we're doing, leveraging an elite defense to account for a lack of an elite scorer. A lot of teams would like fournier. He does a lot of things well. He's not a great defender but he's a solid team defender. He's not a mismatch threat because bigger players struggle to post him. He can shoot and dribble and pass. He looks worse here because he's basically forced to be Jimmy Butler. Fit is important. In a better fit he'd be more valuable. But that's never going to be here.

They top out at what, a 7 seed if everything goes right? Maybe I'm just coalescing all of the previous rumors and not keeping track of who has actually been shipped out. I keep thinking they lost everyone but now that I consider it I guess Dragic, Olynyk, & DJJ aren't going anywhere? Guess they still have enough rotation guys. All the different iterations of this trade have my head spinning. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Idk why he gets discussed like he’s a top tier super star. He’s not. He’s a really good player but he’s no where near the A level stars in this league yet every year we seem to be talking about where butler is going. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Agreed. 3rd best player/fringe 2nd best player on a championship team. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
