TDL Archived: The 2nd Rnd Pick Yankee Swap

[Tyler]

Don’t see any way in the world Miami-THJ rumor is about Lowry.

Personally I think that's the plainly obvious target from the Dallas perspective. They were ready and willing to sign Lowry over THJ, so if they have the opportunity to trade THJ for Lowry I think they'd do it in a heartbeat. Dallas also has a weird habit of going after guys that originally turned them down. Deron Williams, Deandre Jordan, etc. So it's arguably in their nature. And the rumors around swapping THJ for LeVert fall right into the same position of need.

Now whether Miami is ready to make that deal is another matter. But I also get the vibe they may even consider moving Butler to reboot a bit younger, so I'm not so quick to dismiss it.
