Can the Alec Burks experiment please end?

Dude Let it go. Let it go, turn away and slam the door.

He played good D but got saved by Favors a few times and the Jazz loaded the paints when he was able to penetrate vs Burks. Good defense, but if you just look at his fg% it doesn't tell the entire story.

I would never compare anyone on the Jazz to an elite NBA player. But I will say this about you stating that Favors saved Burks a few times.
In game play:
Jordan has been saved by Pippen, Wennington, Kerr, Longley etc.
Malone has been saved by J. Malone, Crotty, Stockton, Hornacek, Eaton, Bailey, etc
I. Thomas has been saved by Dumars, J. Edwards, Rodman, Salley, etc.

That is what a team does is covers eachothers back when someone makes a mistake. You could say that about any player good or bad, big or small in the history of the NBA. Name one player to ever play that didn't need one of his teamates to save him from time to time.??
 
I'm not sure if I want fishon to stumble over this thread or if that would make the board explode ;)

Solid source for harsh arguments at least !!

Nice.

Trout is hilarious. Burks is a gunner, but took 11 shots. 4th on the team. 6 people on the team took 10+ shots. Trout's comparison is CJ Miles, yet Burks scored 18 points on his 11 shots - more than anybody else on the team - that is about as un CJ-like as anything he could possibly do.

Burks and Harden both scored 18 points. Harden was 6-18 FGs, Burks was 6-11. Both guys were 5-6 FTs. Advantage Burks. (maybe Trout should be calling Harden CJ Miles)

Harden had 7 rebs and 10 assists to Burks 3 and 2. Advantage Harden. Harden had 6 TOs to Burks 2. Advantage Burks.

Final result: Burks played the best SG in the game even after a night when Hayward shot 3-11 and Burke shot 6-16, and Trout is calling for his head and calling him CJ Miles. You gotta love it baby!
 
Looks like its been a good fishing trip for you Wells. Lots of bites.
 
Wow! The loser who tried to run for a public office (lol) and lost (LOL) doesn't know much about basketball? You don't say! Maybe rolling around on mats with guys during his leisure time is more up his alley.

You think Burks played Harden even?

Stupidity like this can't be argued with. It's not even worth it.

Whoa, uncalled for bro. Cool your jets. Watching the game over again, Alec Burks and James Harden played comparatively last night. The 10 assists and 7 rebounds, obviously, puts the beard on higher ground and he also makes that potent offense hum. Alec Burks also had a very efficient night and held Harden to a less than ideal shooting percentage.

On all other nights, sure, Harden>>>>>> Burks. But tonight? Saying they played relatively even isnt a far-fetched conclusion to make based on evidence that was provided.

Also, stupidity can be argued with, everyone knows that.

For the record, pulling out of the race and losing are two different things.
