How would Butler opting in give them cap space to improve the team considering they're already pushing towards the 2nd tax apron and limiting moves going forward :mjlol:

I think the original idea was Jimmy playing out his final year (opt in) and them evaluating end of season. Probably give him a mini-bag him being old and missing games. Both parties fukked up though.

Which makes no sense considering that Jimmy would continue to get older and not younger. If they really wanted him to be part of the future, reduce that cap hit and give him a long term deal. Bringing a player in with an opt out after the season is asking for controversy.

Right. Or restructure his final year and spread out the 53M + give him additional years and reduce the hit.

Either way I think both parties fukked up. Pat's comments last summer didn't sit well with Jimmy and here we are.

Towns being openly bitter towards Thibs is/was known. Thibs was allowing Butler to get at Towns. However, Thibs is a player's coach and has actively worked to squash Towns' problems and they are together again.

On the contrary, Butler is still very passive-aggressive about Thibs.

da fukk? KAT is a grown man. The fukk he need Thibs caping for him?

We've been in the thick of things since the 90s. I get it your a Jimmy stan and whatnot but we're not like your trash ass Bulls, the Timberwolves, or 76ers needing to luck into generational talent to just compete and win. :gucci:

We're a legit franchise that will still be making moves after Jimmy. After Bron left us for dead we were a game away from the ECF in just two years. With Hassan Whiteside and Bosh being out. Put some respect on our names.

YOU WON 1 PLAYOFF SERIES
IN 5 SEASONS AFTER BRON LEFT

GTFOH
