Jimmy Butler Watch

[Mavs2021]

He'll go somewhere in some big 4 or 5 team trade and the team that gets him will give up expiring contracts and trash picks.  It'll be the Suns or Bucks or another top contender. It'll either work or be a complete bust. 

No one is overpaying for Jimmy. Heat have lost leverage IF they want to get rid of him.  Riley and the Heat can just send him home for the season, and thats fine. But if they want him gone, it'll be for whatever they can get.

Everything is an overpay for Butler. Only reason Miami will trade him (for expiring deals) is that they know he will NOT opt out in the summer, when he finds out that nobody offers him even 50M for two years; maybe for three years, after this sh*tshow. If he guaranteed Miami that he opts out this summer, they might just run it down. You just can´t have him around another 18 months.
