Burks 4 year $42 million extension!

[NAOS]

You honestly don't think this team is bad because they've only played two games and there is nothing else to go on? Nothing at all?


Jazz are lucky they can throw max money at one guy this summer. Let's hope they convince someone to come to town.

I think they're a 30-34 win team.

I think we're finally pointing the ship in a good direction, after having suffered through the worst water-treading in the franchise's history.

You are not helping btw.
Notice how the more you post, the more I respond with more burks stuff.

Gtfo and it will probably slow my burks talk.

I'm sure that's your intention.

You're lame.

The homer in me says this is a fair deal. But realistically we're paying him a bit too much. But im pretty sure this contract begins at the same time the new tv deal comes into play with around an $80 mil salary cap. I've said this last year that burks could be a dorazan type player for us (stats are very similar). Derozan's contract is aroung 15% of the salary cap, while this new burks contract would be (with new tv deal) around 13% of the cap. So there's that.

The problem is that Derozan has been proven to help his team win games, burks hasn't necessarily done that yet.

All we can do is hope burks continues to improve, and shows that he can play in this system. AND WIN. Hopefully this contract deal lifts the stress off his shoulders.

I doubt you'll stop obliterating every single burks thread into unreadable jibberish. Prove me wrong. Please.

I make you a deal.
I will stop posting so much info about burks if you stop posting so much hate about jazz players and the team, cy stops being argumentative in 90% of his posts, and naos stops being rude/insulting.

A lot of us on this message board are somewhat repetitive with our individual "schtick"
Sorry that you cant handle me being positive about one of our jazz players as it goes against everything your schtick is about.

Hope you can get over it though. Keep your head up

I might stop posting about burks, but can you not be a dick? Doubt it, that is your schtick

Best thread of off season.

What's this? Season started? Someone please tell Burke Gobert and Snyder.

To the Burks haters... what is the absolute highest price you would have resigned Burks to?

 

[Hantlers]

Pretty much everybody outside of Jazz land thinks we overpaid. I tend to agree.

I believe it 42 million is alot of dough

Fish, it really seems like you highlight the aspects of Burks's game more than any other Jazz athlete-- and you tend to be more critical of other players when they screw up than when Burks does.

Now that in and of itself is fine-- we all have our favourites. But you jump in every thread, and it feels like you assert every shortcoming of Burks game to a factor outside of his game.

It's legit impossible to speak critically of Burks without you jumping in. He's not a perfect player-- at all. For every franklin (who trolls) there's probably 4-5 people who actually like Burks, despite their propensity to criticizing him.

And would you say those people have seen Alec Burks play 2 or 3 times a year?
