Trade Deadline

What do you guys make of this 38 min. ago?

I'm just glad it's not a d**k pic

Rudy Gobert and Rodney Hood were late first-round picks, so let's kill the narrative that late firsts are worthless.

Trey + Booker for Lawson and a future first? I say absolutely.

And, sorry Ty, but 3 DUI's kills your ability to bitch about what city you might not want to play in.

Houston has already traded their 2016 1st round pick to Denver, protected 1-14.

Well that clears it up.


I never thought the pick would be included in the first place.

We won't get a first in this deal guys... At best maybe a pick swap with the gsw or OKC pick

 

[Siro]

I'm just happy something is happening that we can talk about.

This.


Haha..

I think this is reasonable for both parties.

Then this deal should not go down. What is the incentive for Utah? Take on Houston's problem for the right to give them 2 rotation players for 1 player that is a problem for them? If it's Pleiss and not Booker then you give up a young guy with some potential for their problem on top of a better player who has accepted his role.

He doesn't look too happy and his LV travel bag conspicuously placed in the photo smacks of foreshadowing. Course he is on an airplane... WTF do I know.

To backup Exum next season? You want to waste $13 million for a backup pg? Better to use those money to buy other players next season.

Or you can trade Lawson in the off-season to a team who wants his expiring contract.

I'd guess we get the right to swap picks in 2017.

Burke & Pleiss for Lawson and a 2017 pick swap, I'd do that deal

A pick swap with either of those could be great for us.
