Do you think Trey wants to be traded?

You can't trade a contract to leagues outside the NBA. Don't care how badly China wants him.

 

[VINYLONE]

Or maybe he just has a back ailment.

I agree. Hayward and Favors are starters. They're getting paid a LOT and will get paid even more in a few years. Burke has gone from starter to sub. I DO think he's legitimately hurt. Last few games mean nothing. It's more important right now to have these players healthy for their off-season programs.

But I wouldn't be a bit surprised if Trey wants a trade. He's on a rookie deal. If someone views him as a starter, he could get a decent deal in 2 years. But he's not going to start with Utah.

Trey routinely rates as one of the worst PGs in the league using analytics. Just which team would want him as its starting PG? Just how much demand is there for a ball dominant, inefficient point guard who doesn't get to the line, is limited attacking the paint, doesn't assist much, and can't shoot the ball?

Perhaps Trey is reasonably self aware and realizes this about himself and that he needs to improve before he develops an entitlement attitude. Everything I've ever heard about Trey is that he works very hard to improve and has a great, professional attitude. Besides, he's still getting major minutes, he might just also realize that with the Jazz he's getting more playing time than he can reasonably expect elsewhere.

Not everyone is an entitled, self-awareness lacking douche like Kanter.

Strange, I saw Trey Burke's picture on the Gillette display at walmart yesterday. He was wearing Michagan yellow.

This might not match the thread tittle but I felt it fit right into the dialogue.

He was wearing Michagan yellow.

...or Golden State yellow...

Trey for Draymond and Curry confirmed.

Eh, it was probably closer to Lakers....

This is a ridiculous comment to a serious question. Everyone knows no such thing is happening. But we really don't know about Trey. He just could be saying nice things about Utah so he doesn't make the same mistake as Kanter. And you know if he does want to be traded, he would ratchet up his game so other teams would want him. He did at one point say he would like to play for Detroit.

It's my opinion, man! Don't be so close minded.

Yeah don't be so close minded man:

That's pretty good, but I wish we can do it without giving up Favors. Perhaps GS would be interested in Evans instead?

Trade him to the Celtics so he can be with his butt buddy Sullinger. He can back up Marcus Smart.
