Utah out: Bogey, Royce, filler, 2 1sts, and a swap
Utah in: Jimmy Butler

Miami out: Jimmy Butler
Miami in: Bogey, Royce, filler, 2 1sts, and a swap

Preface this with Butler asks out of Miami and wants to go to Utah because of DWade and our two like minded win at all costs stars.

Utah does this to have a big 4.

Miami gets scoring and defense back to replace Jimmy.

I dont see Jimmy wanting to leave Miami. He is the face of the franchise and the young guys have strong work ethic.

I imagine DWade will have a similar impact as Usher in CLE and JayZ in BRK...lots of handshaking and check cashing

Wade put money in...... And unlike those guys he has a lifetime of basketball experience to draw from. He made it pretty clear that he is taking this opportunity because Utah is going to utilize him in a meaningful way. He's definitely not there for ceremonial purposes. He could have done that in South Beach if he just wanted to be a Vegas Greeter.

I have no love lost for Wade, but he deserves more respect than that.

What a terrible offer for Miami. Absolutely a non-starter

Yah this is just a really bad offer for Butler. I don't think there is a player of that caliber available for this:
(1) the best player we send is old, so it won't be appealing to rebuilding teams
(2) but contending teams won't want to trade a better player for a worse one
