This definitely isn’t Minnesota with some plastic kids like Wigs and Kat. Make no mistake about it, Joel May be a clown. But he’s Shaq level clown. That dude doesn’t give AF and won’t stand for Jimmy’s ****. I don’t see this as a similar situation at all.

Good trade for Phili for sure. Now, there may be a real rival there.

Narcissism at it's best. "Im right, you are wrong". Incredible what age gives a person. The majority don't even get to that point.

Hilarious though, but not shocking, and most importantly, it's sports so it's fun and games. No hurt in a fan of a team being biased.


But funny, Butler , a pretty good player, with flaws, but still a damn good player, goes on a team that can take them at least to another level of play.

Fans in here do what?

Immediately, all you get is the cons and doubts. What he will do to the young guys, how he will choke because of Avery Bradley shutting him down somewhat (injured by the way) .

If Butler somehow was traded in green you would get the following....

Butler youtube video highlights, and those same fans proclaming "Butler really isnt a bad guy, look, he does this this and this, man butler is going to be a changed man on this team because he can do this this and this"

"man butler is going to buy into the culture, horford will set him straight"



How can anyone in here not laugh at the ridiculousness of posters?

Where have those both sides of the coin people gone? That won't immediately respond to the opinion you have by telling you that you are wrong and an idiot


Thats some sweet irony you’ve got going on right now

Or maybe it's sweet irony for you?

Of course you are the first one to respond, thought it was going to be Valiod or whatever his name is.

Just look at the posts , and take a look at yours and tell me when you are not attacking and telling they are wrong and you are right.

Ok, heres my last post in response to you:

JudBuchler wrote:The reality is that Ainge has trade chips, not pieces for future,

so prepare for Brown, Tatum , Rozier, Smart to be packing soon , not all of them but maybe 1-3 of them


I agree with this— Ive already resided myself to the fact that were trading Brown and Tatum for AD this summer, so long as he gives us a commitment.



Here’s my opinion on the Jimmy Butler trade:

SmartWentCrazy wrote:
Bar Fight wrote:Serious mental gymnastics to make it seem like Butler won’t dramatically improve the Sixers in this thread. As if there weren’t just “trade Hayward or Brown for Butler” takes in the GT last night


He massively does. The only plus for Celtics fans is that in 3 years, where he still has 3 years and 125M left on his contract, Philly is going to be hurting.


Im interested in where I was attacking others and where I said “I’m right, you are wrong”.

Reroute to Boston 8-)


Wonder if Theis would get it done.. hate to break up his bromance a trois with Baynes and Hayward and their families..

Y'all got it all wrong the last couple of pages in this thread... Cleveland is the team to beat in the east this year. The road to the finals is thru the Cavs... T.Thompson said so.

Wow. So where is Melo off to then? Play with Lebron? It's crazy that Houston doesn't even want him for the minimum? I can see him going to Philly for some odd reason.

If he goes to Philly and is typical s*** Melo and hurts that team, that'd be perfect tbh

I disagree. I think Embiid and Simmons are both pansies and shrink in big spots. Just because Simmons does that blank LeBron stare does not mean that he's hard. He was invisible in that series last year. Embiid gets all worked up emotionally and we've seen him get completely gassed multiple times.

Embiid is not a pansy bruh, Simmons is tougher than Wiggins hell Wiggins may be one of the softest players in the league. KAT couldn't even score on Harden or CP in the post in the playoffs dude is soft.
