How the fuck could one team have Harden, Paul, Butler, Gordon, and Capela on their current deals from a cap standpoint?

I think Morey is just proving a point... that Thibs isn't serious about trading Butler for anything. The leverage that those 4-first round picks could give the Wolves' would normally be a no-brainer. Thibs is going to look like more of a clown, if he turns this down.
They could trade Brandon Knight (when it's legal) and Nene and get Butler.
But it would be impossible to acquire Butler without trading salaries.
Hoopshype is now reporting that it's "two injured players and four first round picks". Knight would have to be one of them.
Because they'll all land in the mid-late 20s, so it's really just a meh offer?
Houston should throw in Melo if they want a shot at winning now.
Exactly. Melo is a team killer. Baffled when OKC acquired him; even more baffled when Houston acquired him. Morey's rep as an elite NBA GM took a major hit after that move. Not always, but sometimes it must be easier to see things from 10,000 feet than up close.
Maybe, but I don't think it's that dumb to try to keep Butler. Butler-KAT-one more piece could definitely be a #contender once the Warriors split up.
the anti-melo hot takes are as owg as it gets

lol melo is way more hated by the new NBA stat types
Entire article on Houston’s shitty defense on ESPN.com and not one mention of Bz. That makes me happy.
Melo is clearly a big part of the problem.
