YESSSSSSSSS :)

2nd seed here we come boys :nod: :nod:


:lol:

I hope this is sarcasm.

The only chance we have of even making the playoffs is trading Butler and firing Thibs immediately. Otherwise I see almost no way this team makes the playoffs, let alone #2 seed.

Nope, not sarcasm.

But saying a Jimmy-less team is capable of doing anything but get a top 5 lottery pick is a joke though :lol:

wait .... jimmy didn't put on a show with 3rd team for Glenn? Maybe jimmy sees he pretty much burned his bridges to get himself traded ... maybe jimmy this ... maybe jimmy that ...

Our beat guys were predominantly mentioning a combination of players as those that have been discussed. Whiteside/Dragic/Waiters/Winslow/Olynyk were the major names mentioned. Some of them were quite staunch that Richardson was not included, but who knows. National media seems to think he was. Who knows.

Thanks for the reply. I guess the lack of interest is on our end then.

...after he demands a trade from said franchise a week before training camp then acts like a douche when the team can't find a deal in such a limited time.

What a shock that people don't like him.

Sure, it's completely out of line to boo a player who demands a trade after 1 season. It's great that he want to win, it would be better if he wanted to win here.

Like Butler told the players, this is nothing personal. His quibbles are with management and how he thought they would compensate him money wise. Next season we will remain the team that can pay Butler the most, Butler wants every penny he can get so he will sign.

It's an unreasonable expectation. He wants the team to move 50 million in salary, not so it can win, but only so it can pay him? Give me a break.

At least this will put an end to the Rose-Teague combo, so we have that going for us.

Houston obviously downgraded with Fat Melo and no Ariza. :)

Incoming 2nd seed and eliminating LeBron in the first round. :nod: :nod:

I doubt this team in this state is playoff bound with Jimmy; maybe without him if the return fits.

This just sounds like the Twolves are trying one last time to get Miami to up its offer and replace Waiters as the salary filler with Olynik instead (in the Jrich and first round pick package). Or just get them to throw in another draft pick.
I would really doubt Taylor would let the fans show up to boo Butler opening night.

I don't care if he's here or not either way..if he's gone, I just hope the return is good enough to still compete.

I personally wouldn't boo him if I was there, but that's just me..That doesn't mean I agree with all the **** that he's done the past few weeks
