Jimmy Butler's last several months with the Miami Heat were disastrous. It was an ugly breakup, even for Jimmy's standards, one that ended when the Warriors swooped in and traded for him. Golden State sent Miami a protected 2025 first-round pick for Butler, along with Andrew Wiggins and Kyle Andrews.
Sure, hindsight is 20/20, but the Heat should've traded Butler before the deadline. They should've traded him last offseason, when they maybe could've gotten more than one first-round pick.
Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reported on Wednesday that a team source said "there was no indication that Miami could have received more than one first-round pick" or gotten a better package than it did for Butler.
