NBA Trades: 3 Reasons why Miami Heat should trade for Chris Paul

#2 CP3 and Jimmy Butler just might be that much-awaited one-two punch for the Heat

Two of the most uncompromising attitudes in the league sharing the court.

While Elton Brand expressed no despair in losing Jimmy Butler this offseason, we might see the 29-year-old in a fairly new role down in Miami.

According to The Miami Herald,

As part of a four-team trade between the Heat, Blazers, Clippers and 76ers that became official Saturday with the NBA moratorium coming to an end, the Heat traded away wing Josh Richardson to the 76ers, Hassan Whiteside to the Trail Blazers and a protected 2023 first-round pick to the Clippers to acquire Butler from the 76ers, center Meyers Leonard from the Trail Blazers and cash considerations from the Clippers.

On the other hand, Chris Paul could never truly find his footing playing alongside an offensive beat in Harden. However, the possibilities at hand suggest a favourable coupling of two players who averaged more than 15 points and 4 assists per game each this past season and are desperate for a fresh start.

Moreover, the talent level in both Butler and Paul does not depict a notable difference.
