Bye Bye Burke

If there's some 13 year old out there who can fly under the radar for another five years this pick could turn out to be golden.

The Jazz are fairly "adept" at finding late round nuggets, so this doesn't bother me.

I thought he would end up being traded for a highly protected 2nd round pick, but this is the next closest thing lol, a second round pick 5 years down the line. Props to DL for pulling this off.

DL is crushing this off-season. The only move I'd like to see left is dumping Pleiss but hey, maybe he's stayed in Utah, worked his *** off, and could come back a legit stretch 5 guy off the bench. Either way, we have a legit roster now with guys on REALLY good contracts.

Do teams ever really put protection on second round picks?

Yeah they do

With as many outstanding picks as we have,we may have asked for it that far out. Also that is a tradeable asset for a long time. I like it.

The first stage is denial.

Thought DL should have waited until after FA to make a deal. Burke value would have increased to a team that completely missed out on players.

Lmao. You're one of the funniest posters on this board. You're delusional, but funny.

I wish him luck and hopefully it's new start for him to turn things around.

Who knows what the Wiz will be in 5 years lol, could be a higher 2nd.

Great trade for Burke! The Wizards' offense is geared towards the guards scoring most of the points, so Burke might be able to do the one thing that really seems natural to him: look for his own shot.

Maybe Trey should have bitched and moan like Kanter to get that max.

And not play defense. Not a hit on Burke, but I'm agreeing it's a good fit.

Happy for Burke. Wish it would've worked here.
