Marc Stein: "ESPN sources say Rockets, if Ty Lawson trade talks with Utah were to collapse, would strongly consider waiving Lawson if they can't move him"


Gotta say, this does not sound like a trade that's going down.

 

[Bawse Dawg]

Burke, Booker, and Pleiss for Lawson and Terrence Jones.

If he was waived, how does it work as far as ateam signing him? We could offer him a contract for the rest of the year at say a pro-rated 3m salary and the Rockets pay him the pro-rated remainder? I ask because how many teams are even under the cap to sign him. Other than us.

uch what a bad trade for the jazz if that happens

Lawson is 28 and will be 29 this November. That's not too old as far as getting some great play out of him yet old enough that he may wisen up and get his act together here with Quin and our core's guidance.

I would love to get Terrence Jones

If this trade actually went down, I'd prefer Ariza or Brewer. Either would be an upgrade to CJ as the 4th wing and good depth off the bench. Getting Jones might mean the Jazz are throwing Lyles development away. Lyles needs more mins not less.

I get what you are saying about lyles but I really like jones and this team needs to try to start winning now rather than being more concerned with developing a 20 year old imo.

Not sure how realistic Jones is though. We'd probably have to part with a significant piece

Ya, I wouldn't want to give up too much.
Maybe Houston is willing to give up jones for very little because they feel they need to trade lawson.

I just looked up jones numbers. They are not very good.
Almost every single stat is down this year. He isn't playing much and shooting bad from the field, bad from three, and bad from the line.
(45%, 31%, and 67%)

On second thought, I'm with thee. Just develop and play lyles

From everything I've read, it sounds like the Jazz wouldn't get anyone else in the deal, but send an additional player with Trey, probably Pleiss. Besides I think this is a deal where both teams mutually just want to get rid of players.
