Trade Deadline

Is Lawson a locker room cancer? I think he had issues under shaw but damn near every player hated that guy when he was head coach. I think Houston is a bad fit for him or anyone that needs the ball.
 
He's making 12.4 Million dollars is averaging <7 ppg and shooting <40%. Burke is a better player, has a better upside, and costs a fraction of the cost, this coming from one of the boards biggest Burke critics. We'll also lose something else to trade for him. Too much risk for a late 1st round pick.
Good post too. You make a compelling argument against him
 
Dude is a 17 and 9 guy and only 28 years old stuck on a team with Dwight Howard and James Harden.....this would be a calculated risk not reckless
 
And my point is that alcohol is easy to get in SLC. Maybe you're right but until Lawson wants to change he won't. Regardless of where he is.
Watered down alcohol.

I kid
 
It's a swing for the fences... Why not? Dood will be motivated to make money. If it doesn't work he leaves... I ask for a pick swap or something though.

At least it's not a salary dump for 2nd rounders.
This.
 
I just read so much melt down from usual suspect with limit basketball intelligent! Sneaker, Gregchronc Theejazz fan are go crazy about trade waste pick burke for PG with who has actual been good before? Wha? Why go crazy if you think DUI is contagious disease ok, but then you might need learn about contagious disease. ok Guys. Calm down let professional talk about this. Make sure, Okay?
 
I thought we were trying to get away from 5'11" PGs? He will be playing soley for his next contract, and could cause lockeroom problems if Exum starts getting more minutes than him next year.
 
One thing I don't like... I wish Lawson's guarantee date was after the draft. He could be used to take salary at draft time with acquiring team cutting him... Sadly his guarantee is pre draft.
 
Andy Larsen: Jazz feel Ty Lawson’s issues in Houston are about that team’s system and chemistry, but see no physical slipping in Lawson’s play on court.

Dude will speed up the offense for the Jazz ,scoring opportunities should open up for Hood and Hayward ,this will be good for Hood ,Hayward and Burks as Exum with his lightening speed was going to make Hayward and Hood run harder to keep up anyway.
 
Just keeping Burke is better than Lawson. At least he has accepted his role on the team.
I have a feeling Burke is pissed about his role on the team and just plays nice in front of the media/cameras
