    @cyberx @Codman are you guys hearing anything of significance that this might get done tonight or is there a strong possibility that he's still a TWolve tomorrow?

    My gut feeling is, Minnesota management will gather all offers and make a decision tonight prior to their media day tomorrow.

    You have an owner in Glen Taylor who has to stay on the long view. His best two players are in their early 20s. He has to get max value for Butler in a trade. That means players who can fit that time table of those players. Tom Thibodeau knows this could be his last year. He'd prefer to keep Butler and play the year out but would prefer vet players in a trade. Conversations going on between Wolves and teams around the league, there's some confusion among teams about exactly what Minnesota wants in a trade. They haven't made it clear to teams. Do they want young players? Do they want veterans? Do they want draft picks? Teams who are trying to talk to Minnesota are trying to get that out of them & are struggling to do it.

    Time table?

    Taylor did want to try to get this done before the start of camp. Butler is in Minnesota. Thibodeau said today give him at least a week to get into shape, come back but they're really buying time. Butler is not ready to be back on the court with this team. I think he prefers to not ever be back on the court (with them). He wants a trade now. The way Minnesota has proceeded with teams, teams have felt they've been slow calling them back, (slow) countering offers, not giving direction to what they want in a potential deal. This doesn't look like a situation that will be wrapped up by tomorrow but trade talks can heat up in a moment's notice but it seems clear to teams talking to them they're slow playing this process.

    Just wait. Once Murrhey busts out the "... and we'll throw in consideration for possible future defensive coach position," it's over.

    He's the starting SF for the T-Wolves. Pretty good player. Grew up in Tomball.
