    Trey Burke is playing 7 minutes less than last season and averaging the same numbers off the bench, shooting a career high 42 percent from the field and a career high 34 percent from three

    You didn't have to respond right away. You could have taken the time to search the net or call a friend for a witty response but no..... You had to respond to my post with that lame ass remark right away.

    Mellenials have zero patience. Next time at least give yourself a chance to come up with something witty before posting. :rolleyes:

    I complained about Kyle Lowry the same way some of you guys are complaining about Trey Burke. I said he was to small, can't shoot, was very confused.

    Exactly. A change a scenery can be what players need. Different organization, different system, etc.

    Worst is a stretch

    He is a very mediocre to poor 1st round drafter with a history of total busts like Royce White, Dekker and stupidity like Mook over Kawhi

    He is a good 2nd round drafter.

    That's not good news to come out before the deadline, but many have pointed to this. The drunken master has lost his special brew, just like Brewer lost his touch.

    Because Stein is Cuban's mouthpiece and he will do anything he can to help screw over the Rockets

    Where would Stein get that information from? I'm pretty sure nobody with the Rockets is saying anything.

    Relax
    For the jazz it doesnt matter. They cant claim him off waivers and he would never choose to go play there. For them it doesnt matter.if they want him they must trade for him.

    I mentioned the other day that I wouldn't be shocked if Lawson is waived shortly after the trade deadline, and BimaThug quickly commented on how that might not be the best idea.

    Lawson's deal being non-guaranteed means the Rockets could use that deal in pre-draft night trades. While I do think that waiving him is probably being considered, there is that fact to consider which is why if we hear about Ty coming down with a freak injury that is vaguely suspicious we sort of know what is going on.

    Point being - I don't think the Rockets want him around the team anymore if I can read the body language right from the past few games. He's not helping on the court, and being around the team when he's this bad and not playing late in games just isn't good for them. So I understand where this report is coming from.

    Its also probably being reported so Utah will stop trying to pull a power play here because they know that if Ty is waived he's likely NOT going to Utah. The only way they get him is through trade.

    Why did J.B. insist on playing him so much then? So many nights he was an absolute zero on the court. Would've rather gone big with Montrezl, give KJ a shot or play MT / Terry.

    Well, some people think these guys are paid professionals. They wouldn't be so petty as to let things like their lead player slacking affect their play. :p
