Looked over Denver's roster because I really don't know much about them. Kind of amazing that they almost got a playoff spot last year because that roster doesn't have many big names. Based though on Monte hopefully making this team and Butler going to the Wolves I will be watching much more regular season nba next year.

The Nuggs have a star in Nikola Jokic.

Went looking on twitter for Butler reaction. Went to Stacy King's page, and he's hasn't tweeted since the news came down but here's reaction to someone giving him the deal as it went down.



He was stating that any deal with Minny would have to include KAT or Wiggins. haha

Butler makes the Wolves a playoff team but my fear is that it could lead to their falling apart down the road. With all Butlers skill, he has been known to be kind of a bad teammate since he became a star. So hopefully he fits in with Wiggins and Towns. If he does it will be great, if he doesn't, I could see Wiggins leaving.

Bulls in rebuild which is what they should be doing. I'm assuming they will buy out Rondo now. Wade to ..?

God ESPN sucks. Checked this morning to see where Jok got drafted and they left him off the list. Will these people at ESPN ever do their jobs right?

I actually think the Bulls trade of the 2nd rounder for money was a good deal. They are probably going to buy out Wade and Rondo so they need cash and the likelihood Bell ever does much in the league is pretty slim.

I'm still blown away by the Sacramento trade. Take Fox and Monk. Just do it and have your backcourt set with two guys who loved playing with each other.

You know it's dumb because if Sacramento offered Giles and Jackson for Monk there is no way anybody would take that trade. NBA 2k computer would reject that trade out of hand. Just a remarkably stupid move.

Really like Josh Jackson to Phoenix. I think they are building a good young team. Between whatever PG they decide to keep, Booker, Jackson, Chriss, Bender are some young players with a ton of talent.

To be fair K has a huge recruiting advantage via USA basketball and has seen Duke's recruiting skyrocket since joining that. That's honestly probably a bigger advantage.

Cal is now coaching the younger USA teams which is an even bigger advantage. He is coaching kids he is recruiting.

To be fair, a lot of those people were just shown the door ;)
