Sources: J Jack was set to become a Rocket before injury (Terry included)

Jack wouldnt have helped our rebounding woes, as he is not good at boxing out.

 

If Lawson/Terry for Jack is all Morey can come up with, we are in some serious trouble, and it must be FACT that Lawson demanded a trade, because he is farrrrrrr superior to Jack.

Hoping for a better deal, and some more veterans to stabilize the emotions in this locker room.

AND A NEW SMALL FORWARD. Harden needs a Pippen!!!

 

harden needs a pippen? lol.

no, harden needs an alpha or mj. he IS a pippen.

 

Justise Winslow would be perfect.

 

Maybe in the future. Definitely not now. Can't hit the side of the barn, raw handle. Poor free throw shooter.

 

Sometimes the best trades are the ones that never happen.

 

at least in the rockets case its the trades that do happen but get overturned

see: Chris Paul trade
see: Robert Horry trade

 

At best, this is partial information.

I really wouldn't make any broad conclusions here without knowing exactly all the pieces involved.

Also, certainly wouldn't start guessing about who wants to be here and who doesn't.

 

Agreed.

Its disappointing to see people say, Terry/Lawson for Jack?!? Mauri is the worst!

 

Glad this didn't happen. Jack and Lawson are virtually the same player. No need to make a move just for the sake of making a move.

 

People are making WAY too many assumptions regarding the parameters of the trade. Apparently Terry was a part of the deal, and we'd only need ~$5 MM more to match salaries. Why are we assuming Lawson is a part? Maybe we had a nice deal for Bev and were looking at a Jack/Lawson combo. Maybe the reason we hadn't executed the trade is because Brewer was a part of it. Who the hell knows? Stupid to speculate with such limited information.

This is a bump that even Rick James would be proud of.
