So in essence the Miami Heat trade theor best player for role players and draft picks 20 years from now. No ream general manager would ever do these things lol. The heat met the the Easter conference finals a year ago. I don't think they are championship material but getting rid of Jimmy buckets for parts is never happening. Mikal bridges was traded for 5 first round picks. Jimmy only gets traded for some type of package like that.
A trade involving Jimmy Butler would only make sense if he starts declining significantly, but his slight drop in performance last year was due to injuries, which is understandable. Miami needs to boost their roster, but trading Butler, their best player, isn’t part of that plan. The trade scenario suggested by danherbias07 seems unlikely, especially since Coach Spo wouldn’t agree, given his past issues with LeBron. So let’s set that idea aside.
The Lakers need role players who can contribute, not another superstar who might just be overshadowed by LeBron. LeBron’s championship run with the Lakers should be enough for now. They should focus on making the most of what they have, as they’re still a championship contender with AD on the team.
