Miami Heat Receive: G/F DeMar DeRozan 

With that said, there was a time in NBA history when many would have suggested this trade was untenable. 

How could Butler and DeRozan co-exist? Aren’t they both 3s? Those were simpler times. They were the times before position-less basketball. 

Now, we understand that such positional designations don’t have to be so rigid. Potential roster fits aren’t judged by position: they’re judged by skill. 

If two stars are both 3s, one is either going to slide to the 2 or the 4. You can play three wings in your starting lineup.
