Houston Rockets Interested In A Jimmy Butler Trade

[@stevomania12]

Forget it unless its for dillon, tate, landale and/or jeff green

[@NoahFreedman]

That's nothing, thought we'd have to include Amen or one of our core young guys (most likely will).

[@stevomania12]

@@NoahFreedman agreed. Unfortunately, Jimmy is too old. There is no point scuttling all our sacrifices the last 5 years on jimmy that maybe has a season or two in him at the most.

[@Mehmet_Kayseri]

though I like Jimmy we dont need him. injury prone, old, expensive, doesn't like houston.

[@NoahFreedman]

That's his hometown bru🤣

[@sheezy3962]

VanVleet and Brooks can kick fucking rocks.

[@WilUptonYT]

All set unless it’s like Brooks and a 1st

[@CyroAsseo]

Not possible money, Brooks, Jabari, Salary Filler and a 1st for Jimmy

[@MarkRichards-kf6zz]

We don't need Butler more like Giannis

[@contentlounge6652]

Would never happen without a 1st

[@nicholaslu4069]

Jabari Smith is going to get another twenty games or so before the team considers trading him. I’m not hopeful about him turning into a star player but he can still become consistent. Hell we gave other young players that much time we should give him some time, especially if he plays alongside Adams who has historically been that guy who can help others improve massively. If Jabari can’t improve next to Adams then he gotta go.

[@JaylaGoggins]

Are the Jalen Green and Sengun contracts tradeable at this year deadline? Or this would be a sign and trade in the summer?

[@CyroAsseo]

Because of their recently signed extension, Green and Sengun can't be traded until next summer... However, I think unless Green or Sengun really don't take another step or some superstar becomes available, you'd think they'd trade Dillon Brooks and expiring contracts at the deadline or next offseason to do what Pacers did to get Pascal Siakam to maximize their window

[@jamesbush1008]

I wouldnt be agaisnt bringing on jimmy butler but not for amen thompson no way... id give jabari and dillion brooks and 1 pick for butler. Thats fair

[@CyroAsseo]

thats the deal i said, i even mentioned i wouldnt trade amen

[@williamdavis9562]

Not of fan of the Rockets getting a guy this old

[@moneyflowdb]

Not happening bro this team is young and they just reported they not interested in a big trade 😂

[@CyroAsseo]

it was just reported they are interested in a big trade... this report came out in the last 24 hours

[@moneyflowdb]

@@CyroAsseo you gotta stop reading bleacher report gang they be having slow days at the office 😂

[@CyroAsseo]

@@moneyflowdb This came from Marc Stein of The Stein Line (lowkey one of the most reputable journalists), only guy I trust from B/R i my friend Eric Pincus (I do report on Firscher's stuff but with a grain of salt). I work at HoopsHype so I have a decent gauge on what is true or BS, I ain't saying this will happen but if Stein ys its a rumor, we should at least speculate that it has some validity

[@moneyflowdb]

@@CyroAsseo I hope not this team needs more reps wit each other

[@CyroAsseo]

I agree, I think they would only do it if they feel that they can compete this season or next (similar to Pacers getting Pascal) or one of their expected pillars (I assume Green or Jabari) doesn't pass the smell test of being a viable player to keep long term and they feel like they need to flip that said player for an immediate contributor or even those three are great but D Brooks is seen as a trade chip for a better player to maximize this team and they pair Butler/FVV with Jabari/Sengun/Green being the core

[@China2TXMan]

marc stein got no source in Houston

[@contentlounge6652]

No way you made the heat send out a first!! Lmfaoo not over pat rileys grave

[@CyroAsseo]

I didnt make the heat send a first? If I did it was meant for the rockets send a first lol my b if I did, its supposed to be Brooks, Jabari, Salary filler and a pick

[@MrKarapasa]

they need brooker and maybe butler.. the engine of the rockets is bari, tari, and alpi. than u have reed, cam, amen. that's the roster. jalen is a one way run n gun player nothing else, his peak in march was able to defeat bottom teams in a period where those teams caclulated draft lottery positioning. so to play jalens run n gun ball he must hit over 50% of hits shots to beat those.. the hype around that period of him.. reminds me of a shitcoin crypto hype the engine is there, it's up to the rockets what they decide...

[@richbase7005]

Have you seen alpi , he is not the engine , he can’t defend and he’s a black hole

[@benjaminolpotiii3459]

No no no

[@Marcus-uh5ib]

Jimmy for Dillon Brooks 🫱 🫲
