    Jimmy Butler has hit more clutch shots (under 10 seconds) than anyone in the NBA since 2015. Just keep that in mind this summer

    His agent wants money.
    What is the best trade idea?

    This is tough...there's an easy list to dump 3 open shot passing scrubs for this guy, but we'd have injury problems all season.

    I doubt CP3 would do that given he is head of the PA.

    We don't stop CP3 from taking mid ranges, we will not stop Jimmy Buckets. As long as it's an efficient shot for him.

    Can't wait to hear Bill Worrell say 'Wohooooo. . Butler shot that from deep, all the way from Tomball."

    Drexler: "I agree."
    Bullard: "[fake laugh] Ha ha ha, I see what you did there."
    Worrell: "You like that? I've been saving that, special for the occasion."
    Drexler: "Welcome home to Houston, Jimmy Buckets."
    Bullard: "I don't want to argue with you, Glide, but Jimmy would probably insist that he's from Tomball, not Houston."
    Drexler: "Either way, it's good to have him home. How's that? Can I say that?"

    I think he meant Butler won't be taking shots with <10 seconds left.

    As Morey says: good teams don't win close games; they avoid them.

    You don't need him with Butler on the roster.

    Are we actually doing this?
    We’re pretending like Butler to Houston is happening?
