Seems like a lot of folks are keeping quiet. . Eating crow etc.. Obviously he wasn't being utilized the proper way and trigga trey being hurt didn't help.. He got an unfair shake and is back to ballin. KANTER IS NOT GETTING TREATED RIGHT and the jazz will regret trading him if they do.
 
He's had maybe 5 good games this year, and a few fair games. Right now he's not much different than CJ Miles.
 
Burks misses those 3 three-pointers last game (as he usually does), and nobody will be calling anyone out for dissing him. I wish he can always play as well as he did last night. But he won't.
 
1 good game is 1 good game. It was great to see but you are over reacting. Let's see him keep it up before we start singing his praises. He has potential.
 
I think Burke needs to pride himself in being a great defender and knocking down spot up 3's at around 40%. If he does this, he'll be fine because he has a decent transition game.

For me, its the willingness to take those 3 pointers thats important in hindsight. I would be pissed if he went 0-4 from downtown, but him willing to shoot 3s is just good for spacing and will help his slashing game. The phoenix game basically had him going hard at the rim 100% of the time, and screwing up most of the time. Just shows a lot of mental growth by putting variety on shots imo.
 
I'm still unsure what to make of him at this point. He's been so inconsistent this season, even though he's been trying to learn different positions at the same time. I have a "wait and see" attitude, but don't think he will ever become more than a solid sixth man--that's his ceiling. I'd like to be wrong about that, though, and will wait and see.

he has not been inconsistent.
basketball is a team sport.
he had played with the wrong players.
when lucas was on the floor it was a one on one free for all witth jl dominating the ball.

with burke at the helm it is team basketball
