Remember when people thought he was among the best young point guards in the league? What happened to that guy?
He's still a good talent. Had some trouble with the law iirc but would have been ideal as a backup guard
Not to mention he's tiny. Do some people really want there to be times during the season when we have Lawson at PG (5'11") and CJ at SG (6'4")? Lawson isn't known as a world-beater at defense.
If you want a tiny backup pt guard.....there are plenty unsigned....Aaron Brooks...who also ended up in China for a stretch....nobody wants him....I'd rather have Shabaz Napier over either of those guys.....Tim Frazier got signed before both of them....
Since playing in Denver, he has played in Houston, Indy, and Sac. That's in span of of just a couple years, and he didn't even make it through a full season in Houston.
https://www.si.com/nba/2017/03/10/ty-lawson-sacramento-kings-dui-court-probation-suspension'' Ty Lawson's Impending Court Date Could End His NBA Career A year ago, Sacramento Kings point guard Ty Lawson received something of a break when Denver County Court Judge Olympia Fay sentenced the former Denver Nuggets star to probation and community service for an impaired driving incident back in 2015. On March 22, Lawson will again face Judge Fay, except this time he might not be so lucky. Lawson will need to “show cause” that his probation should not be revoked and that he should not be sent to jail. If Judge Fay instead determines that Lawson—who the Denver Post reports has failed three alcohol tests since last September and failed to perform 48 hours of required community service—has violated the terms of his probation, she could order the 29-year-old, former UNC standout to spend some time behind bars. Lawson’s eight-year NBA career also hangs in the balance. He has received multiple “second chances” by NBA teams willing to overlook his history of drinking and driving. Depending on how his March 22 hearing goes, Lawson might not get another chance.
Sorry man, I disagree. You don't go to the store and BUY cancer or diabetes. You have a choice. My dad and stepdad are/ were alcoholics and it was tough growing up in that environment......BUT, they drove to the store and bought that alcohol. I believe it's a weakness, not a disease. My personal opinion. Because of my grandpas and dad, I should be a mad alcoholic...... but I choose not to drink. Using their examples of what NOT to do.
