Some of the posts in this thread are puzzling. People are not saying Burks is MJ or a super-star, and I don't think he has such an attitude based on what I've seen.

All we want is for him to get some playing time, especially considering how terribly Marvin and Foy have played overall -- yes, they've had their moments but it's been far from consistent.

Burks has been somewhat disappointing. As a prospect he was supposed to be a much better ball handler and facilitator than he has shown since he was drafted. He only seems to do one thing well and that's crash the rim. It's not like he can't get better but if the dude doesn't fit package him for something that does.

This.. who in the hell would want to trade Millsap for Odom??

we're not trading for Odom but for his salary (where i mentioned a buy out). if you think we can get Bledsoe for jus Burks, then you don't follow the NBA.

Well, I never said we could.. in fact, I said we couldn't .. so there's that..

Sorry about that. Bad thing to say under the circumstances. Discussion is always welcome. I was saying no to that trade.

I'm just about to jump aboard the fire Corbin bandwagon. What a doofus.

Burks has been somewhat disappointing. As a prospect he was supposed to be a much better ball handler and facilitator than he has shown since he was buried on the bench this year because it's really important to play a pure rental in a year when the Jazz aren't contenders.

Please do. I respect your opinion and will feel a slight bit less dirty.

Has a Jazz rumor ever been true?

Brewer to Memphis.
Korver to Utah.
Giricek on the market.
