I'm not interested in any scenario involving Luka or Dennis, and I doubt Wes gets it done, so I think you're looking at Barnes-for-Butler... Which I would do even as a 1-year rental, seeing as how Barnes expires in 2020 anyway. Obviously I'd want Butler to sign an extension, but if he walks and Jordan comes off the books, we could realistically chase two max/near-max FAs in a summer where not only do you have Butler/Jordan as UFAs, but also Durant, Kawhi, Klay, Boogie, etc. (not to mention RFAs like KAT and Porzingis).
I mean, I doubt Butler ends up coming here, but I see little downside if he does.
