Deron learned about being traded by watching sports center?

He was called last night and they let him know a deal may be coming then again this morning to tell him it had happened... Nice try though.

Found a link for this thread:

“He found out by the TV in the training room, and everybody was just starting to put it together,” Jazz swingman C.J. Miles said. “That’s when I saw Al [Jefferson] in the elevator. It was just — nobody saw it coming. It was crazy. … I saw him getting on the bus when we were about to leave, and all I could do was kind of dap him up.”

In the press conference greg said he called him before the trade happened. This is just what CJ knew, so it sounds like Dwill chose not to tell other players about it.

Last night in an interview on Kjazz Raja said he was in the weight room with Deron at the time it went across sports center. That was the first Deron had heard about it. Raja said, Deron then got on the phone and quickly found it to be true. Sounds to me like the cat got out of the bag before Greg made the call to Deron.

I can see a reason for Greg to lie, I can see a reason for Deron to lie, but I can't see a reason for Raja to do anything but tell it the way he saw it.

Deron confirmed it in the press conference. Sounds like Greg was a tad late.
