    This deadline chatter just reminds me of how much of a colossal failure this season was.

    Lawson, Harden and Howard were supposed to be our big 3 for the next couple of seasons, and in 24 hours two of them will be gone.

    Trey Burke was also withheld from media interviews today.
    Apparently last time the Jazz did that was with Enes Kanter.

    Burke would be a pretty good grab for Ty...still young enough to work with and hope he'll improve. i wonder who else would be involved though..

    Trey Burke isn't any good. Utah has been the worst team in the West at PG all year.

    Think it would have to tbe Trevor Booker who has a 6 mill expiring deal.

    Burke's + Booker would be a great get, we surely would have to add assets in return like Dekker, Harrell or picks.

    Also extremely low cap number for next year giving flexibility this summer.
    Burke + Booker for Lawson works as a trade and Booker is an expiring contract.

    I see what Morey is doing.

    Rockets have 2014-15 Skills Champion (Pat Beverley)

    now he wants 2013-14 Skills Champ (Trey Burke)

    Burke would make a great addition to the brick squad

    Kinda depressing hearing us desperately trying to trade Dwight and Ty when they were the exact pieces we needed to contend for a championship this year.

    Oh well :rolleyes:

    Sorry not 6 mill, Bookers contract is 4.7 mill

    The Jazz have 7 mill in cap space. I'd actually be happy with Neto and Booker for Lawson.

    Lawson, Dekker + 2nd for Burke's and Booker could work as well.

    He can work on his shot, you never know, only second year in the league. Bev still can't score and Terry is old, so he is a different look than those two.

    I expect this trade to possibly involve a third team because the Rockets would have to waive someone in order to receive two players and who is there to waive? I guess you could waive Terry, but I feel like the Rockets want to keep him. It would be hard to make a 2 for 2 trade work without involving Burks, Hayward, or Favors.
