Several recent reports suggest that Butler's not getting along well at all in Chicago (sample linked above). Doubt they ever consider trading him, but nonetheless, it's an interesting situation to watch. Seems he's creating some serious rifts in the locker room that have carried over since around the time he signed his contract. If reports are true that Noah and Gibson are on the block, that's a pretty crazy situation out in Chicago.

I hope that was a sarcastic response because thats a deal for Cousins or another top 10 talent...not Butler and a declining Gibson.

He probably upset over rumors of Noah being shopped

DA is not trading a Brooklyn pick for Butler this year. If we do not entice anyone this summer. Sully will get a good contract from us. Rondo may keep us from Boogie as well. I see Dino or Hayward coming in this summer in a trade.

It wasn't sarcastic, it was in a rush. But you are right, that is a godfather offer.

I would do something like AB, Lee, Sully, Young and BKN 2016 pick for Butler and Noah.

Would love to see this lineup:

IT, Smart, Butler, Crowder (or Kelly), Noah

Rozier, RJ, Turner, Jerebko, Johnson, Kelly, Zeller, Mickey

Butler is t the one they'll trade. They'd clear the decks and start over around him.

It's really about who'll take DRose, Pau, and Gibson; Noah will expire. They'll be looking to shake things up, I think.

  • Sometimes there's no sane reason for optimism
I guess we can always hope he'll pull a Carmelo and say he wants to be traded and it has to be the Celtics. Other than that, I don't see the Bulls giving up on him.

And yes, I would probably give up the BKN first or Smart in a deal for Butler. He would fit in great here.

You are crazy. Cousins and a top 10 talent? For AB, a pile of trash, and some picks? Not going to happen, pal. Get your head out of the clouds!
CB Mock Deadline - Minnesota Timberwolves
Kemba Walker / Tyus Jones / Aaron Brooks
Jimmy Butler / Jamal Crawford / Treveon Graham
Rodney Hood / Nic Batum / Marcus Georges Hunt
Taj Gibson / Nemanja Bjelica / Jonas Jerebko

Jimmy Butler is the best SG in the East and he's 26 years old. The only way he's getting traded is if he demands out of Chicago. I'd love to have him but I'm not going to wait around for it to happen.
