Per you they could have made the deal had he opted out (or not picked up his option). We are not talking about other players.No more-so then any other player on the roster

SO this is all about you having another hypothetical?
And, as ridiculous as the question is, I'm not even sure of the answer because I remember reading/hearing that even if he did opt out we wouldn't have any cap space when him possibly opting out was being discussed.
Here is a post from April 11 made by @Heatles84

I really didn’t pay attention to Heat salary this summer because I figured one more year as is.
However, I heard on radio that Whiteside opting out doesn’t help Heat with cap this summer anyway.
They were suggesting he doesn’t opt out, then the Heat trade his expiring contract to a team that needs a C.
That would probably be the best for all involved. I know whatever happens with Whiteside, we're still locked into this roster as is for 1 more year. On another note, did you see this (including @bksballer89 )?
If you care to do the research, go ahead, but its ridiculous because he didn't opt out.
So, at that point, his talent created the opportunity to turn him into 2 players PLUS salary relief from Portland.
That allowed the Heat to keep 3 better players then the one they dumped to the Clippers to create the Butler space.
$120 mil can make it happenBut money can't buy you Love!
Him opting out wouldn't matter? If he opts out they need to move his contract to get Butler?After thinking( try it), I recalled it being said that him opting out wouldn't matter.
Then found the post to support it.

You aren't sure? If Whiteside does not pick up his option you think the Heat might still have to move him, even though they cannot move him as he is not theirs to move?Not sure.
No cap expert.
But I recalled conversation that it didnt, and posted it.
Maybe cap expert @WiggyRuss recalls?
Posts like Heat gave Portland assets to take Whiteside, are maybe a reason you should realize you often talk out of your ass.

That has to be Post of the Year material.
I get Heat fans are among those who base comments on poster and not post, but for their sake I hope none try and help you here.
