^^ Yeah he has played SF quite a bit actually

I think Butler is going to be a huge influence as a veteran leader on this squad - he has league wide respect and even if he scores 0 points in 20 minutes, you know he is still going to be doing everything he can be out there... I like guys like that - I would not be surprised to see him start at SF if called upon

I don't think Butler has much left in the tank. Otherwise he'd still be going for a championship with a contender. I would hate to see him go scoreless in 20 minutes.

You would hate to see anyone go scoreless in 20 minutes, but I'd say Butler would do more than just about anyone on our roster in those scoreless 20 minutes in terms of intangibles...

He doesn't have much left in the tank - this is true. But he still plays hard D and can shoot pretty well from deep - combine those two things with his leadership and knowledge of the game, I think he can kind of play that role that we thought Chauncey would play for us last year...
