GAME THREAD: Jazz Take What Talents They Have To Miami 12/16/13 5:30

Burks sure looked like a first option last night.

Lebron, wade, ray allen, norris cole, and chris bosh all took turns guarding him and couldn't stop him.

Then they tried doubling him.... that didn't work.

Even saw him score against the triple team too.

Seemed like the jazz got to a point where a lot of the time they just gave the ball to burks and said go to work and it almost always ended in a bucket for burks or a teammate. (3 of burks misses ended in offensive rebound putbacks by team mate cause burks was drawing so much attention..... and one of his misses he stole the ball right back and got a layup). They should have had the ball in burks hands even more tbh.

I remember hearing last fall camp that in practices no one on the jazz could stay in front of alec.

Maybe its time to start him and make him the #1 option..... maybe that would take the pressure off of hayward and he could play better

He has been getting the ball at the end of quarters lately. He has earned 38-40 mpg, will Ty let him have them?

Either he thought I was being sarcastic (I wasn't) or he is just salty cause I have not been agreeing with him lately
 
What sucks is that if kanter or burks play great then corbin will just be like "well I made the right choice to bring them off the bench since they are doing well in that role"
If they play bad then corbin will just be like "see, I knew they were not ready for an increased role in the starting lineup
