Remember we tried to trade for him back when Chicago had his rights:

Quote

Their negotiations didn’t get very far as “the Bulls had no interest in anything they had.” Even though the deal never materialized, it looks like Rich Cho tried to get another superstar to pair with Kemba Walker.

Potential Trades:

MKG + Lamb + 1st Rounder = Butler
OR
Marvin + Lamb + 1st Rounder = Butler

Chicago is in full rebuild mode and don't want any of our players - Twolves are still trying to make playoffs and might be intrigued with MKG's defense now that they R losing Butler. And Lamb is on a friendly contract for today's NBA and an expiring as well.

Jimmy would be a great player for this team. You can tell he just wants to win and he’s not getting the effort out of the young guys like KAT and Wiggins.

With that said, they’d want Monk or Bridges and probably a first.

Look what they gave up for him. I don’t see them sending Butler for anything short of Monk, Bacon, and top 10 protected draft pick.

No sir. For the first time maybe ever, I am really really liking our young draft picks.

This is how I feel as well.  Back to back years we got the first round pick I wanted and a second round guy I like.  I am not sure how to react to this, it is all so new.

We would have to give up Miles or Monk plus a number 1. That's too steep with no guarantees he would sign an extension with us. 

yup, prolly..

But this is what drafting well gives you - options to make a trade for a legit AllStar player. We still dont know if Miles are Monk will have better careers than MKG.. we can flip their potential for proven help.. we prolly wont - but we absolutely need to keep it up with drafting well so we arent stocked full of the Zellers, MKGs, Biyombos and Kaminskys :fear:

It's not up to him where he goes.. Twolves hold the power..

If you don't think Jimmy Butts would immediately put us up in the top 4 in the East, you guys are crazy.. he has 2 years left on his contract, that is smaller than Batum's btw..

Next year is a player option on his contract, so yes, it is essentially a 1 year deal.  He can opt out, get more money as the cap increases, etc.

He'd be a one year rental in Charlotte

      I have no idea why you are so irrationally upset about the notion that going out and spending $150 million free agency dollars on two interior offensive linemen could be construed as a panic response after our #1 pick we traded a fortune for had one of the worst rookie seasons of the last 25 years. It is objectively what transpired. Dan Morgan as of right now is a mixed bag. Some really good some so so some not so good some bad some really bad. You take any rational criticism personally like you are related to him or something. That's something you'll have to figure out for yourself. Anyways. The predicament Dan Morgan finds himself in for this year will define his future as GM. I sincerely hope he navigates it to perfection. But the circumstances are largely of his own creation. And not just in his stint as GM but going back to his time as assistant GM. Which conveniently people like yourself don't like to talk about. That is the reality of the situation. I like how you will carry water for Dan Morgan to the point of getting into random spats with people but make no mention of Bryce Young's glaring limitations and shortcomings as a starting QB yet go out of your way to put the onus of our struggles squarely on Canales. I mean I've been quite critical of Canales too but he sure isn't the only one to blame for our problems.

      They weren't well thought out. We needed one, not both. 2 top center/guard candidates were going to be available in the 2nd. We would have been fine with JPJ or Frazier. Drafting either over XL or Brooks would have made perfect sense. Hell, drafting both would have made sense even if we had signed Lewis or Hunt. Instead we drafted a 1 year wonder project WR and a luxury RB that we didn't need since we had Hubbard. Draft IOL, pay tackles. Plenty of 2nd round guards and centers start immediately and play very well. Those 2 picks were not good then, now, no matter how much explaining anyone tries to do. Several of called it then.
