Burks

[RJF]

Can you imagine if we got this Burks back?

I wouldn't imagine too hard, it's never happening.

 

[RJF]

Compared to last year it's hard to believe he was putting up numbers like that three years ago.

Note to the writer Josh Haslam: if you take out of consideration all the subpar games, any player would look great.

Well, the team was terrible and someone had to score.

Please explain.

 

[Chargers Jazz Angels]

can imagine what we could get in a trade for a player like that?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Please explain.

1. He was never that good. He was just a scorer on a bad team
2. He has had a ton of MAJOR injuries

Well, the team was terrible and someone had to score.

Well that can apply but it usually means inefficiently and in that specific game Burks was very very efficient.

I can hope he can get back to that but realistically I understand he likely wont be able to be that efficient with those high numbers BUT I can at least hope he improves his efficiency as the season goes on and still scores 10-14pts a game.

As you stated and this applies to this years team, someone needs to score I just hope he does and can do so with some efficiency.

C'mon man, keep hope alive!
I'd take 50% of what he was then, it would be a 75% improvement over what the last couple of years have been. I really hope he can stay healthy physically and get healthy mentally and I think he could be at least serviceable again.

We'll see, I'm not ready to give up on him quite yet. Give him at least one full season after coming back from said injuries yes?

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

I just dont see the Jazz even getting him many minutes, if any at all.

 

[Jazz4ever]

It's too bad Burks only lived up to about half his potential.

Well the Jazz are going be horrible thisyear, lottery bound so yeah

Perhaps he can shake the rust off and prove his mettle in preseason. Let's not have his funeral just yet.

 

[Engorged On Unborn Gore]

Do you have the prediction record to verify this?

 

[fishonjazz]

True.
Good news is that players occasionally do come back from injuries and occasionally continue to improve past the age of 25.

Definitely not looking good though.

Burks lived up to all his potential.

I think you are right, not with Quinn. Alec has several bad habits on defense that will keep him off of Quinn's court. He won't get time to shake the rust off (as some say)or comeback from three (or is it four)serious injuries.

reported as a troll post

If you want to discuss Jazz basketball, even if your take is negative, that's fine. The post above is plain garbage just trolling the boards of a team you are not a fan of.

If you can't provide any valuable content I don't see why you don't just get perma-banned?
