Part 1: NBA Trade Deadline Reactions With Rob Mahoney and Wosny Lambre

I just think a motivated Jimmy actually fitting a Golden State need, meaning somebody who can do something off the dribble that isn't Steph Curry and, you know, can play defense, even though he's not what he used to be at all. He used to be an ace defender. He's not that, but he's way more than competent. And just the motivational factor.

A couple of things that I love about the deal. One, it pays deference to the end of the Steph era. So Jimmy's deal basically coincides with... you know, Steph Steele to Jimmy Butler is a maniac. He's going to be extremely motivated and he's an upgrade to what Andrew, you can say whatever you want. He is a clear talent upgrade to Andrew Wiggins sort of Sometimes here, sometimes there, whatever.

And then third, I like that it just clarifies the Kaminga stuff because with these young guys, we see it all the time. When they're in these trade rumors for an entire season, it's like, all right, that's now been clarified. You're going to be here. This is what the team looks like. Let's go. I'm really high on this for Golden State.

And again, I personally wouldn't have carried it the way Jimmy did. The way he's obviously looking at it is like this is literally his last payday ever in the NBA, major payday. And he's looking at it like, I have to do whatever I have to do to make sure I secure that win. And unfortunately, it got ugly. And I can understand feeling entitled. It got ugly. It was like got disfigured.
