Episode notes
Golden State's Need for Offense
- Golden State needs another offensive player to lessen the burden on Curry and Draymond.
- Jimmy Butler fits their needs but his contract situation and the NBA's salary cap rules make a trade difficult.
Houston: A Logical Destination for Butler
- Houston is a logical trade destination for Jimmy Butler.
- Trading VanVleet and other assets for Butler and Rozier would improve Houston's end-game execution.
Alternative Targets for Golden State
- If Golden State can't acquire Butler, they should target Brooklyn's Cam Johnson and Dennis Schröder.
- A trade involving Wiggins, Melton, and a first-round pick could make sense for both teams.
