Trade Deadline

Remember, why would ATL want Burke? Teague is expendable as Schroder is next. Burke will just bench-warm for a couple of years before hitting the open market again so other than shaving a bit of dough from their cap, he doesn't really fill any need.

He'd be a RFA, right? And he's shown some value coming off the bench as a scorer. So the team trading for him could have a reasonably priced, offense-minded PG. That's at least SOME value (along with a future 1st) for a PG (Teague) that is NOT going to re-sign with Atlanta. Hawks are stupid not to take what's been offered. In a year, Teague will have even less value (a 1/2 yr rental).

Thee jazz fan rejoices!

Youuuuuuuuuu said it!!!

Pretty sure they have been calling up Tibor for road trips all year.

And when bigs (Gobert and/or Favors) have been hurt. Better to have him in the DLeague where he can get playing time.

Jazz practice had all players present. No one was held out.

It looks like Trey Burke will not be made available to Jazz media at practice today. - @andyblarsen

That's interesting. Protecting him with the trade rumors out there, or keeping things close to the vest?

Will he blow kisses to the media though? That will be the sign.

Every question would be about how he felt about being traded, or possibly being traded. Agree with keeping him away from the media

Pleiss sent back to Idaho. Lol

Looks like they called him up for only 1 practice. Isn't there a limit on how many times they can send him to the D League?

What? Honestly, sometimes I think Lindsey acts like a teenage girl in love. I don't understand him, I hope the players and agents do.

May be he had a deal lined up and it was 'called off' .. .but when Pleiss came back to practice the deal was 'on' again?

The Rockets are pitching point guard Ty Lawson to the Jazz, according to @ESPNSteinLine.

 

[Stoked]

Houston is pitching Lawson for Burke.

Hell no!!!

DL are you reading this!?! No no no no no no no NO!!!!!

 

[slc]

So have any other trades gone down today?

 

[Stoked]

Wow, HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO!!!!

This is horrendously bad. I want Lawson nowhere near this squad. Period.

I'm pretty sure that the limit went away. GVC or somebody a lot more knowledgeable in the CBA would have to confirm, but that is what I remember.

No that I've seen.

Utah, meanwhile, has made Trey Burke available, but at least one more player must be added if talks progress because salaries aren't close

Wow, HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO, HERE WE GO!!!!

I'd give him a chance at a fresh start if he's free.
