Around the League: 2018 Offseason

[The Bobster]

Why would him turning down a contract offer make you less of a fan?

He hasn't gone anywhere yet.

[ShelC]

Just things over the past couple of years that have turned me off to him. From a bunch of things I've read he's just a dick as a teammate and seems to think he's a lot better than he actually is. He's a good player, but really hasn't accomplished anything in his career thus far.

[The Bobster]

Fair enough.

[INFORMER]

I can not believe IT signed for just $2M.

Why not? He wasn't right all year, left the playoffs with an injury the year before, and he just had hip surgery. It is definitely believable.

[INFORMER]

I feel bad for the Wolves. It's going to be a big hit if he leaves without anything to show for it.

Apparently there are two factors at work:

1. He wants to play with Kyrie Irving
2. He hates Towns and Wiggins lack of intensity/effort/focus/discipline.

Can you blame him? I mean he generally plays his ass off on both ends, and to have your help Wiggins especially do nothing but shoot the ball, you have to be annoyed.

[Mori Chu]

I wish Butler would stay there. I want to see that TWolves team rise and be a contender. Probably won't happen if they bleed talent like Butler and Wiggins.

[TOO]

Wiggins is garbage, he has no idea what a pass is. He's terrible.

[In2ition]

I still can't believe that people equate Booker to Wiggins, that makes no sense to me.

Is wiggins even better than Ariza at this point?

Butler has a huge chip on his shoulder. He was drafted late and has had to work hard to become as good as he is. Wiggins and Towns have had an easier route. So I get Butlers frustrations.

[specialsauce]

Butler's a loser with a bad attitude.

[bajanguy008]

Wow
I didn't even recognize him at first, had me wondering if the vid is sped up . Is he even on a team....
I remember him going to the Nets but Jarrett Allen is their guy so his minutes weren't any better than the Sixers debacle

That's so messed up.

His first few years in the league won't be that easily forgotten, he is the poster boy for lazy.

He just need ONE fool in the right place saying “hey, we need a backup center, let’s take a flyer on this guy”, and we could be really close to one.

Yeah, he wants a piece of that crazy money. Time to get to work to get some. Then he can go back to what he was doing before.

Butler turning down the extension was purely financial. He can make an additional $80M over an extra year by waiting until next offseason to sign.

Wow. It was already life changing for him and his future generations for years to come.

Nerlens Noel and Isaiah Thomas are good bedtime histories about how playing 80 million flip coins on a job that pays on your last few months performance can backfire big time. But maybe 100millions on hand isn’t enough for your 4th generation to get by and that extra money is worth risking a season ending injury
