    Every team is starting to rest players.

    Celtics rest Hayward
    GS rest Iggy
    Wolves rest Butler

    If Melo, MCW and Ennis don't play good defense and we rest CP3, Even Clippers could beat us.

    Butler looked he might have hurt himself when he jumped out on defense last night. He had a slight limp afterwards. The way it happened he could have possibly tweaked his groin or maybe a strained a knee. No doc, just a guy who once played a lot of ball and trying to figure out what he could have done. Definitely didn't look serious, so some extra rest may be what its needed.

    Morey, stop playing and bring this man home. This squad as currently constructed is not beating GS.

    I understand that he wasn't the problem, but everyone keeps talking about how crucial he is to our defense (and agree that he was last season) but if we have no defense, then we should evaluate how important he really is.

    After seeing all the changes with the rules and how refs are calling the games now. Do we still need Tucker?

    If Tucker is what holding us on getting butler, I would trade him in a heartbeat along with EG.

    I think PJ has been our best player outside of Harden and Paul so far, not saying i wouldn't move him in a Butler trade, but still...if there's one piece i try to keep it's PJ.

    They want both PJ and Gordon. Butler is amazing but thats not gonna take where we wanna go, at best it makes us slightly better.
