Lotta hyperbole going on in this thread.

0-1 from 3 for the preseason.

31-59 from the field-- 52.5%

8-16 from the free throw line-- 50%

5.75 rpg in 21 mpg is pretty good.

3.475 fouls per game is poor in limited time.

I just don't see it yet.

Stick to highlights and mixtapes.. you'll see it.

I would not trade Burke and Kanter for Randle.

I was always pretty neutral on Burke, but his leadership is definitely a huge plus to the team. He has a clear positive effect on the offense just being on the court, even if he isn't statistically playing well. I don't think his stats will ever climb that high either, so I don't think his market value will ever exceed a ridiculous number like Hayward's did and Burks' probably will.

Sticking with known commodities is always a good choice over taking a shot at something better.

Logic isn't allowed.


Jusuf Nurkic looks better btw.

Stole him in the 2nd round of our Rookie draft. Ppl laughed.

Disagree. I was going to start this thread two days ago but hate looking like a troll.

There's a thread titled Julius Randle in gen NBA

I believe I had him ranked very high in my rankings in the draft thread. Absolutely love his game.

 

[cowhide]

I like him as a prospect but what has he done to warrant trading both Burke and Kanter for him. I can't believe how people thrash Kanter and Burke as though they haven't done anything. Both guys are certainly capable of having comparable careers as Randle. Time will tell but I wouldn't trade both guys for Randle.

This.
As much as I have been critical of Burke, I think we need him right now with this young bunch. Exum is NOT ready to run the team. And when the Jazz have a crappy PG, the whole team suffers. I don't think Trey is the long-term answer. But he's cheap. Not sure who the Jazz could have picked up on the FA market, but we've seen some of the veterans Utah has brought in over the past 10 years; I'd take Trey over any of them. Keep Burke until Exum is ready to take over...which could very well be right at the end of Trey's rookie contract.

He's looked good-- most impressed with his passing. Really sets him out from the peers he's compared to

I'm not sure what kanter will be like in the future, but there is no reason to trade Burke. Burke, exum and burks could be a lethal guard rotation. Any way you slice it, there are 96 minutes for guards, and if hayward moves to small forward, we could have our guard rotation set.

LOL .. when I was pimping Randle before the draft EVERY MAN AND HIS DOG was criticising how he's a black hole, he doesn't know how to *** out of a double team, doesn't know how to make plays.
