Huge if they were able to keep Bev.

Lawson is a near All-Star PG.. Rockets just got a lot better.

Good pickup. They needed to do something with the how much better the Warriors are and the way the Spurs and Clippers loaded up.

Does anybody else find it weird how few players switch conferences? It seems like it's only role players who switch conferences these days.

We already have plenty of evidence that Lawson isn't good when paired with Bevs.

Beverly was a great fit next to Harden.

Mudiay will be good but nothing Lawson means Nuggs will suck even more, so now Knicks, it's up to you to suck almost as badly.

Big get for Houston.

Hard to imagine Terrence Jones not being involved in this.

EDIT: Wow. Just salary matching and a future protected first? Lawson's DUI sunk him that low. Wow.

Wait is this some kind of joke that I'm missing? Or did something happen between the two?

It was a particularly low blow concerning Lawson's DUIs.

Looks like Denver receives a whole lot of not much. Great for the pick.

Denver got robbed.

lol gave up nothing of real value. Good for Houston

I wish morey was our GM

Post #17 » by **Double Helix** » Mon Jul 20, 2015 1:28 am

Shad nailed it. This is great for the Raptors. Denver will be worse. New York still hasn't spend a ton on anybody special.

Lotto pick for Bargs next year looking likely. Nice job, Masai!

Yes!!!!!! That new york pick is looking even better. Denver tanking and new york striking out in free agency. All we need now is for new york to suck like last season and we might be getting a really high pick

3 team trade

Denver: Kostas, Pablo Prigioni, Joey Dorsey, Nick Johnson and a protected first
Toronto: Lawson
Houston: Lowry

How did he go that cheaply, even if. As a gm that's bad on Denver. They'll get a top 5 pick as the trade off.
