One good thing for the Bulls is Kawhi Leonard also being a RFA. He will definitely take some attention off of Jimmy Butler for at least certain teams. It might make the price lower than the max.
Do we even know for sure Jimmy asked for $12 million?
What's the source on that?Reports are Bulls offered 11m as their final offer
no telling how much Jimmy was asking but most feel he was probably asking 12 or atleast that 12 would get it done
Even 15 would be a steal with what he is going to be offered by other teams next year.Reports are Bulls offered 11m as their final offer

You did? Damn.I don't care if they have to give him near a max deal. I want JI'm my locked up, I said from day one when they drafted him he'd be an perennial Allstar in a few years.

I knew nothing about him when they drafted him. When he got playing time during the lockout season, I saw potential in him. I saw the same thing in Snell. I didn't see any potential from Teague. I'm still out on McDermott.
I watched a lot of his tape and play before the NBA. He truly was a great steal, really hope he plays his whole career here. Every year he's been here he has improved in multiple areas of his game. Couple more years this could be Butlers team.

LeBron plays similar minutes-and has throughout his career. Jimmy will be fine.Starting to worry about Butler long term right now. His shooting % have been in decline as he has racked up the minutes. Playing 40+ minutes a game may be a very bad thing when the Bulls get to February. Butler has been attacking the basket and taking some hard falls. His shot is getting flatter.
The NBA season is marathon not a sprint. I hope he holds up and is healthy at the end.
