We haven't signed Tinsley yet because we haven't found a backup pg for Burke.

Last year McNeal averaged 5.5 assists per game in the DLeague. Mo averaged 6 assists, Earl averaged 4.4 and Tinsley 4.0. I think McNeal is your guy unless the knee doesn't hold up.

I'm guessing Tinsley is looking for a multi-year deal and the Jazz are offering one year. So he's waiting a bit. Jazz might also be waiting until they have a chance to evaluate Burke during summer league, to determine if they need a starter or a backup. I don't think it's a given that Burke is the starter.

While I definitely see your point there, I think Burke will be the starter. By the time summer league ends, there won't be any decent starting caliber point guards available in free agency and we have nothing enticing to trade that we are willing to part with.... I think the Jazz see Burke as their starter next year.

Not that I am necessarily right.. but I have zero doubt that's true.

There is ZERO chance Utah goes into the season with a PG depth chart that features Burke, Neto, and McNeal. Book it.

There is no way you can determine if you are right. Even if it is not Burke, Neto, McNeal that does not mean the chance was never there.

I'm assuming you're implying Tinsley, right?

If so, I agree..

Burke, Tinsley, Neto/Burks

Tinsley.. Will be our 3rd pg..

I see burks getting a lot of burn as the sixth man PG!!

So what happens if Neto explodes and outplays Burke?

Then that would be great, right??
