The Nets met with unrestricted free agent SF Caron Butler on Wednesday and have another meeting planned on Thursday. Butler has drawn a lot of interest around the league, but it should be noted that he was struggling before he had major knee (patella) surgery. In reality he's perfect for a 20-25 minute role on a contending team (like the Clippers who he met with earlier in the week), rather than being a No. 2 or 3 guy as some seem to believe he is. For fantasy purposes, we're passing.
