Butler has touched the ball twice in the 4th and both times he's immediately given it to someone else. He wants no part of this game.

I’m glad the warriors took him so they’ll be irrelevant

I think the opposite. He’s just spinning, it didn’t look like he even extended his elbow unnaturally at all

They could trade one of their 4 tradeables for a pick in this one


Curry, Butler and Draymond make a combined 139.4 million. This is the squad. Play-in at best next year again.

You guys overreact too much.
Unless father time catches with more than it did until now, or if they are injured, they will not be a play-in team, let alone "at best".
If you remove Jokic from Nuggets, Denver looks like crap, that it doesn't mean that they are play-in team at best when you put Jokic back in.
They went 27-12 after the Butler trade.

They were a play-in team this year. Butler is not going to play a full season like he did after he got paid. He hasn't in 5 years. He always takes games off during the regular season (and that will lead to losses in the Western Conference).

Agreed about your point of overreacting, but their strength of schedule from March 1st to the end of the season was 19th.
