What's new

The Official: Dont trade Burke for Lawson thread.

If Burke hadn't completely checked out I'd agree but it was clear to me before he got dem poopies that he had quit. I posted it as well. I think we have to move him now. This move going public seems like a auctioning tool by both teams.
 
If Burke wants out then I guess do it. But I see one of two things happening. He either A. Doesn't show up for class. Or B. Shows up for class but doesn't care so doesn't try.

I like the way he has handled being demoted for Dante and Raul with determination and grit, but I agree that since his name has been dragged through the trade mud you have to move him. I think he can hold his head high and be proud that he has done pretty well in the NBA so far whatever happens.
 
I am not a fan of Lawson's character. At all. But you know what? F it. Burke is gone soon anyways and maybe we will get another player or a pick.

And while unlikely it is possible that Lawson returns to 2012-15 Lawson.

It's risky but F it. Nice to see the Jazz consider something risky. Usually we are the poster child for slow and safe. Sometimes you have to take a jump.
 
Not a fan of the trade, but if it goes down, I'm rooting for an implosion so the Jazz choose to release him at the years end.
 
Also, I'm more a fan of this trade then getting Teague, because to get Teague we have to at least part with Burks and picks for a rental. At least with Lawson we only give up Burke and a scrub and no picks.
 
Even with Lawson's baggage off the court and his known feeling for the state, he is the lesser of evils between him and Teague.
