Jimmy Butler has requested a trade from the Minnesota Timberwolves, league sources tell me and @JonKrawczynski. Butler has given Minnesota a list of one-to-three teams with whom he's open to signing extension, in anticipation of trade.

Normally I'd say great, but we have enough good wings, and two of them are paid a lot less than Jimmy. I don't see a way it works without the really ugly scenario of shipping out Hayward.

While in the past I would’ve loved Jimmy in green, I don’t think that he’s a good fit with our current ball club.

Would like to see him on the Heat and in Spo’s system. They could be a good team in the East.

Hopefully he doesn’t get traded to NY, setting up an intolerable year of dumb Knicks fans already penciling in Kyrie as a Knick next year, which many are already doing.

More really if Jimmy included Boston on his list. Do not think he is worth what the T Wolves think his value is.
