re: Pels listed as 2nd most likely to land Jimmy Butler

What we should be trying to do is convince PG to sign with us, then work out a S&T deal involving Miami and 6ers also

Miami: Ingram
Philly: Butler
Pels: Paul Reed, 3 1sts from 6ers

Then send Nance and one of the Clips picks back to clippers in a S&T for PG

Philly goes to fallback option after losing out on PG

Miami does an even Butler for BI swap saving 12 million in the process, BI buys into “Heat Culture”

Pels get a hefty return for BI, probably more than they could otherwise get if they don’t swoop in to basically steal a player

Clips don't lose PG for nothing

The key would be Philly not knowing Pels are the one that swooped in and stole PG
