Wizards forward Caron Butler has been mentioned in a number of trade rumors over the last month, something he's become accustomed to lately.

"I'm popular," Butler said. "I've always been a popular kid, since middle school, I've been bigger than everybody. I'm very popular right now."

Butler has had a disappointing season and Washington has struggled on the court and off with the Gilbert Arenas gun incident.

"It's been hard to focus. It really has," he said. "You can say all the right things, about staying positive and moving forward, but it has been hard. It takes a toll on you mentally and physically. This is the only time that you can escape from all of that."

Knicks would love to package up Jared Jeffries and such for him. He would be a great recruiting tool for LeBron to come! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Yeah but I think Washington wants a lot more than that for him.

Wizards want fair value, so there really isn't anything the Knicks could offer up that at the same time wouldn't hurt their playoff chances (because of team chemistry and such).

If Butler goes anywhere it will either be to the Bulls,76ers or Suns since they could all give fair value (With Amare and Iggy both on the block.

Josh Howard probably. Maybe we'd take on one of their bad contracts as well.

some more info on possible destinations for Butler

Wizards sending Butler to Houston or Dallas

Now that the NBA has sliced $4 million off of the Washington Wizards' salary cap this year due to the suspensions of Gilbert Arenas(notes) and Javaris Crittenton(notes). So now the team only needs to get rid of $4 million or $5 million more to get under the salary cap, so it's looking more and more like the team is going to ditch Caron Butler(notes) before the Feb. 18 trading deadline, according to NBA.com.

The rumor is that the team has offers from the Dallas Mavericks and the Houston Rockets and will likely decide on one by week's end. However, the Wizards may want any team taking Butler to also take Mike James(notes) or DeShawn Stevenson(notes) in order to clear up some more cash.

The Wizards apparently want a younger player in the deal, which means the Mavs would need to include rookie guard Rod Beaubois. The Rockets have young guard Kyle Lowry(notes) and an expiring contract in forward Luis Scola(notes) to deal along with the massive $23 million expiring contract of Tracy McGrady(notes).

Interesting idea.

Jazz trade Kyle Korver and Ronnie Brewer for Butler. THan in another deal send their 6 million dollar trade exception for Stevenson or James.
