It's been reported a bunch that Minny just didn't want to trade Butler to Houston cause they didn't want to "make the next superteam"

why they care? the rockets window is very small, and it's not like they'd be interfering with what the wolves are trying to accomplish since the wolves aren't gonna go to the playoffs anyways.

You must’ve forgot the best player in the league on the Raptors breh

Durant plays Toronto? Steph Curry? Bron?

The fact that Toronto has Kawhi doesn't mean they're the best TEAM in the East. The Raptors have to prove that they're playoff tested as are. The Celtics, on the other hand, are the deepest team in the East. Early season games aside, Boston has too many scorers, shooters and has too elite a defense for Toronto if they were to meet in the ECF. And while Kawhi is a beast and NBA champ, there are too many question mark's around his supporting cast which looks good so far this season but are still not playoffs-tested. Cs are still the team to beat in the East.
