    Maybe not. It might take a while for Butler and his new teammates to aclimate to one another.

    If we could get Butler for that deal it would be amazing, but I don't see it happening. Not buying into that guy and his sources just yet.

    White people are sooo pigmentally challenged. Like, pale.

    And sometimes Jordan Clarkson takes it to the hole like a light skinned Dude.

    Prophetic Vision #1:
    Before getting my shower, I grabbed shorts and a T-shirt from my dresser - red and black. Hadn't even checked LB at that point.

    Totally Awesome Meme we can employ #1:

    PG is 1 of the mainstays I've wanted us to acquire dating back as far as I can remember. I see PG bringing in the most value of any of the top guys rumored to be available, so I won't even get my hopes up that high. But Butler is an excellent alternative that we should in theory have a better shot at landing.

    Ingram or whichever young gun Chi has eyes for + whatever draft considerations we can attempt to trump the Boston offer with seems like a huge step in the right direction.

    Man, Vlade looks terrible right now. Apparently Cousins' agent was assured by Vlade he wouldn't be traded, 40 mins before it happened. Then today Vlade is talking about "culture and character" with some of the guys they have on that roster lol, and now this



    You don't admit that man.

    Jeez. That makes me feel a little bad for Vlade. He took a job he was ill prepared for and boy is it showing. Vivek must be impossible.

    If there's a way go lose neither DAR nor Ingram, I'm sold. Even if it's two firsts.

    I don't like the word jihad. Probably a questionable meme word.

    Only if we're unaware of the history of Islam. The Greater Jihad is a struggle for self-mastery, which is, it turns out, one of the four Christian cardinal virtues.

    I do that Butler trade, but honestly, unless he has another untapped gear that only shows up once he moves teams (like Haren had) I think this guy is still only a #2 at best on a championship team.

    But it's a start

    IMO, Mitch is star shopping. Everybody is available; except Ingram.

    It is used today in one context I'm aware of.

    Historical usage is irrelevant if it's offensive today.

    IMHO

    Nowhere does the word jihad appear in the Bible

    For what it's worth:
    He was three-time all-D second team
    3 time all-star
    He has the 5th highest Win Shares this season
    He has the 9th highest Value over Replacement Player this season
    He's top twelve in points and steals per game and in PER

    I think you're being offensive, to be honest. Please stop. No one said Jihad was in the Bible.
