I wouldn’t put too much stock in anything outside the top 5 for any section.
Some people want their fav player to get top vote so will use their other ones at a position on troll votes and with Butlers trade demand that’s a pretty easy way to get those kind of votes.

- Comment on Suns Benching Bradley Beal, Jusuf Nurkic from starting lineup 1 week ago:
There’s been some bad trades the last couple of years but this one was mind blowing in that it should have been clear to everyone it was bad st the time.
There really wasn’t an angle you could sell yourself on it fit wise with what their needs were and what Beal provides. On top of it just being a bad fit he has 1 of the leagues (I believe) only 2 no trade clauses so it was a terrible trade that’s really hard to get out of now.
If they can’t trade Beal you almost start to wonder if they just blow it up and trade KD/Booker to get some picks back given how tough the west is and their current play but not sure Ishbia is willing to do that.

Missing Gordon hurts with how little depth the Nuggets have so it’s possible. Love seeing Jokic vs Wemby either way!

- Comment on Jimmy Butler Wants Trade from Heat amid Comments About Getting 'Joy' Back 2 weeks ago:
Can’t imagine it’s a lot. He’s probably only going to draw serious interest from contenders that feel he can push them over the top in the next 2 years so you’re mainly getting back picks.
The problem is with him just having a player option the trading team may only be getting a rental or they’re having to do an extension where they’re paying an old butler too much so I wouldn’t put up a ton to trade for him.

Yeah that’s fair the suns should trade for better defensive players, seems their play had been 3 stars so was thinking that’s at least an upgrade then.

Kind of crazy since he was the one to bring them to the playoffs for the first time but coaches don’t last long in the NBA.

Suns made sense but with Beal having a no trade clause I don’t know if that happens.
Other than that you’d have to think of teams that are win now that have a max contract they’d want to trade. The apron restrictions complicate a lot of the trades those teams can make though.
Don’t think the Nuggets would do it since Butler is a bit too old and they really need someone good at 3s,

Yeah I think when expansion happens is the time they’ll do it if it ever happens. Outside of that I agree the East teams won’t do it.
