    Cool photos, never knew that Wesley Matthews was Asian American! Eat your heart out Jeremy Lin.

    No way Jimmy did that? Guy can't stand Embid is the better player and the team's star. Fight, fight, fight...

    Wait, you don't believe the butler did it? But since we've eliminated all the impossible, what is left, however improbable, must be the answer.

    butler does seem like a locker room problem at this point.

    think they want ingram? :Magic2:

    He surprisingly may also be available this offseason. I think everyone assumed he’d stay there, but maybe not. Lebron might like that guy.

    I was (half) joking about our level of desperation.

    He wants to be the man on his own team. Tennants are perfect for him.

    "Butler has expressed a desire to teammates to play in more traditional pick-and-roll and isolation sets, rather than trying to find his place in the Sixers' free-flowing offense, league sources said. "

    Exactly what we need.

    we do need a closer that can create his own shot tho....

    but not liking free flowing..... sounds like a bad fit though

    At this point it's beyond doubt that he's a lockeroom cancer.

    He'd be pretty good at what BI tries to do. I'm not sure, but any star that likes having the ball in his hands to create won't like playing with Lebron that much.

    yeah, it's odd: it's clear that luke wants to play a certain way, yet ingram gets mad isos...so why not trade for someone who's actually good in that situation?

    but yeah, butler/lebron isn't ideal, and i think word was butler didn't think so, either. clips can have him.
