The Warriors trade Butler + Dream Chasing? Arenas discusses the next one: The Rockets need such a player

On May 21, former NBA star Arenas talked about the Warriors' offseason operation on the show. He believes that the team should trade Butler and Chasing Dreams to create a younger lineup around Curry. Arenas also mentioned the four potential next dealers, including the Rockets who were eliminated by the Warriors in the playoffs.

The Warriors finally failed in the division semi-finals this season - Curry missed four games due to a hamstring strain, and Butler was also limited by the injuries left by the previous round against the Rockets and was in poor condition. This result highlights the risk of relying on three late-career players: both Butler and Green are 35 years old, and Curry is 37 years old.

All signs indicate that the Warriors tend to continue building teams around these three stars next season and seek to strengthen their role players. In order to find a more suitable lineup match, Kumingga may even be traded.

Arenas does not agree with the Warriors' route. He pointed out that Kumingga has gradually realized his potential and should have become the team's future core. He also pointed out that the Warriors should not only focus on the next one or two years, but should trade to pursue dreams and Butler in exchange for young stars to build a team around Curry.

He said on the show: "Curry's competitive state is still like a young man. Let Curry partner with Kumingga, join more young players, and start Curry's 'farewell tour'. After he retires, the team has a group of young talents aged 23-24, and the future is still promising. You can send Butler and Dream Chasing away."

Arenas believes that there are several teams that may need Dream Chasing and Butler, including the Warriors' first round of playoff opponent Rockets:

"If I want to trade them, only two teams need it." Please. If the Thunder fails to win the championship this year, they may be interested. The Rockets need defense and players like Butler - their forward Jabbarry Smith Jr. has not fully realized their potential yet, and they are only a few veterans away from rising. "

He also added other potential next players: "The Orlando Magic has a lot of potential stocks, and the Cleveland Cavaliers may also consider this deal."

Although the Warriors are likely to leave Dream Chasing and Butler, if other teams make attractive trade offers, they may need to reevaluate the choice.
