Bobby Marks on Jimmy Butler: ‘Golden State is certainly a team that’s been mentioned, but Golden State is in the same boat as the Dallas Mavericks. They turned over the roster this summer in the Klay Thompson trade. They’ve got Buddy Hield and Kyle Anderson and De’Anthony Melton. They are triggered by the first apron also. They are $534,000 below the first apron, they are not allowed to exceed that in any trade. So when you’re looking at Golden State, they’re not trading Stephen Curry, they’re not trading Draymond Green, then you have Andrew Wiggins. Does Miami want Andrew Wiggins who has this year and two more years left on his contract? It’s hard, it would be a hard pass for me. (…) So the numbers are there but its another scenario where you basically would have to stack contracts and send out four players on a Jimmy Butler trade.’ -via YouTube / December 14, 2024
