Sources: Wolves agree to trade Butler to 76ers

The Timberwolves will receive a package that includes Robert Covington, Dario Saric and a second-round pick, sources said, and Minnesota will also send Justin Patton to Philadelphia.

Funniest part outside of getting scammed


Wolves included Patton. Basically saying “yeah the Bulls also bent us the fuck over”

 

[Beengay fudgepackers]

Fultz
Butler
Simmons
Johnson
Embiid?

Or will it be...

Fultz
Redick
Butler
Simmons
Embiid?

Either way, they look pretty good.

This is a monster move for the Sixers. Holy crap!!!

Bulls got Lavine who averaging a lot of points and Markannen who’s their best player. Not bad for what Butler is turning out to be. How long until Embiid and Simmons start to hate him?

Bulls also got Dunn

Yeah, I skipped over him because he’s not that good.

it certainly wouldn't be the first one. They'd probably go with Shamet, Chandler, or Muscala before Johnson at the 4.

Neither is Lavine.

But no idea how minny didn’t take OJ with that pick instead of a 3rd center

Lavine can score. He’s better than Dunn, but definitely not a starting piece to a quality team.

Philly must have more moves in store before March. Very little proven 3-point shooting on their roster beyond 34 year old Redick.

Nice move for the sixers. Puts them in the conversation with the celtics raptors and bucks

Were they not already there?

Not early in the season, they haven’t looked good. People forget before that like 17 game winning streak last year they were hovering around .500. The Butler move puts them in the conversation but Toronto is still #1 and Boston is still right there with them.

 

[Sparhawk]

Seems like we traded two $0.40 cent pieces for a $1.

He plans to sign here long term.

Not really, I don't like there shooting outside of redick. Celts the best still. But bucks and raptors are closest to them.

They've won 6 out of their last 8, let's not act like they weren't favored to at least have home court for a playoff series. Butler makes them better, for sure, but I'd say maybe 1 spot better as I already pinned them as a top 4 seed in the East, as I think many others did. Celtics haven't looked very good as of late though.
