Kings trade huerter Lyle's and a 1st round
Blazers trade jerami grant

Saves blazers some money and get first round pick
Kings obviously need a big wing like grant

14 Jan 2025 15:15:03
Makes sense for both teams. Only thing, not sure if Grant worth a 1st given the season he is having and his contract.

05 Jan 2025 00:54:24
Miami Heat / Denver Nuggets

Miami Heat: Michael Porter Jr, Zeke Nnaji.

Denver Nuggets: Jimmy Butler.

05 Jan 2025 11:47:05
I just don't see Miami wanting that future money.

04 Jan 2025 23:52:21
Cavs get: Cam Johnson
Nets get: Caris LeVert, Jaylon Tyson, '30 unprotected swap, '31 unprotected first and 4 2nds

Why?
Cavs go all in, finally get a big wing.
Nets get a decent return. A good prospect, an expiring, and two high variable firsts.

04 Jan 2025 21:50:57
Miami Heat / New Orleans Pelicans

Miami Heat: Brandon Ingram, Zion Williamson, 1st.

New Orleans Pelicans:Jimmy Butler, Duncan Robinson, Kevin Love.

04 Jan 2025 11:55:09
My idea:

Grimes makes ++ 20ppg as a start, I like him a lot - but Butler is a beast in the play offs.

ATL needs a SG and hence we have a trade:

ATL S&T (extend and trade) Grimes at 4y 80m with 23/21/19/17m a year, Kleber
DAL Butler, Love, Burks, Johnson
MIA Prosper, Marshall, 1st, Capela, Nance, Powell, Morris

Next three in a row : )

04 Jan 2025 14:30:50
Johnson? From ATL? Are you kidding us.

04 Jan 2025 16:05:56
Johnson from Miami, to make it work (6 players out and 4 in) .

04 Jan 2025 18:47:52
The deadline to extend Grimes has passed. He will be entering restricted free agency after the season.

04 Jan 2025 21:21:39
No, Mavs can give him a ce.

05 Jan 2025 15:08:31
Just rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic for Miami and Atl. Most of these players are dancing lemons, and Dallas doesn't need the headache who is Jimmy Butler.

04 Jan 2025 09:14:31
Mia- paul george
Phi- jimmy butler

Mia still get a star and phi makes embiid happy

Rozier
Herro
George
Highsmith
Adebayo

Maxey
Butler
Oubre
Martin
Embiid

04 Jan 2025 06:28:44
Could it happen?

NOR Prosper, S&T Grimes (30m/y), Powell, Morris, 1st
DAL Butler, Love, Green
MIA Ingram, Kleber

04 Jan 2025 07:46:28
How are you going to s&y a player midseason.

04 Jan 2025 11:48:41
It is the same - for the mass of you guys. You extend a contract and sign on new terms - y use it like a S&T in a trade - also in usa.

14 Jan 2025 15:22:42
To sign and trade you need to do it in the offseason. Check also Poison Pill rule another reason your trade would not work even if Grimes was already extended in this rate by DAL. If this trade is for the following offseason, Ingram is FA so he should be Sign & Trade as well.

04 Jan 2025 00:06:31
GS gets: Jimmy Butler

MIA gets Zach Lavine and Torrey Craig

CHI gets Kuminga, Moody plus filler.

05 Jan 2025 15:10:18
GS would rather have Zach Lavine and Torey Craig than Jimmy. I know the $ don't work, but really Butler is over the hill and not worth ANY extension over 15-18 million at his age and injuries.

03 Jan 2025 15:17:05
MEM/MIA

MEM get Jimmy Butler (with 3 year extension agreement), Josh Richardson & Kevin Love
- if Jimmy plays at a high level again, he and Ja would be a menace

Pg Morant/Pippen
Sg Wells/Kennard/Richardson
Sf Butler/Jackson/Laravia
Pf Jackson Jr/Love
Ce Edey/Aldama/Huff

MIA get Desmond Bane, Brandon Clarke, John Konchar & future 1st round pick top 8 protected
- Bane would be a good backcourt partner for Herro in the future

Pg Herro/Rozier
Sg Bane/Robinson
Sf Highsmith/Jacquez/Konchar
Pf Clarke/Jovic
Ce Adebayo/Ware

03 Jan 2025 15:35:55
That's interesting, without checking the money I kind of like it.

03 Jan 2025 16:18:04
Desmond Bane as the headline of that package is very intriguing. Make the pick top 3 protected and I think both teams accept.

03 Jan 2025 10:07:49
What is better for Miami?

PiSTONS get Jimmy Butler
HEAT get Brandon Ingram and Tim Hardaway
PELICANS get Isaiah Stewart, Ausar Thompson and Kevin Love

or

PISTONS get Jimmy Butler
HEAT get Zach LaVine and 1st round pick from Pistons
BULLS get Ausat Thompson, Tim Hardaway and Simone Fontechio.

03 Jan 2025 15:37:01
Not good.

04 Jan 2025 17:20:05
you smoking crack if you think the Pistons would trade Ausar AND a 1st round pick for a washed Butler.
