Following potential 2015 draftees

[Elizah Huge]

Many thought Burke could have gone top #3 in that draft had he been a few inches taller.

Burke was projected to go #2 to Orlando for awhile there.

I was so happy when we got him, I still like him.

Contrary to popular belief, I think he can still be a good player.

He doesn't shoot a good percentage, but he is a good shooter. He averaged 12.8 PPG last year on 8 shots a game. I just think he isn't meant to be a starter, now that he will go through a full offseason of being a bench player and working with the staff I think he can be a very solid player off the bench.

I watched almost every Jazz game this year and to me it seemed like he was taking good shots.

I'm thinking the season thing too. I wouldn't just throw him out with the trash. He can still get better.

He wasnt worth trading up for or even picking, but he sint a complete bust. He can be useful.

I would trade Hood in a deal for Hezonja. Hood's a nice player, but he's near his ceiling, imo, and probably is a back-up on a contending team. Just not athletic enough to change the game.

If there was an award for "poster that routinely says the dumbest **** and no one seems to call them out for it", you'd be the winner every year.

I'd rather trade 2 future firsts than Hood right now.

Ummm he shot the ball 13.1 times per game to get that 12.8 pts which is almost last in the league for PG who play regular minutes. It's JLlll territory.

I wouldn't give up on him yet unless we got a first rounder for him but just wanted to make sure we got facts straight.

Stitches shouldn't have been quoted in last one... Fat fingers small phone and multitasking.

Lol, I guess I just looked at his 2 pointers attempted. It does change things, but my point is he is a good shooter. He just didn't shoot well this year or last year which is really weird.

He has some stuff in his shot that needs to be fixed or he'll never be consistent. I think he could be a good shooter but I'm not ready to declare him a good shooter at all.

My biggest issues are he slows the game down and doesn't move the ball. Some say its because he takes so many shots at the end of the shot clock and I think that is actually his fault. There is still something there but I'm losing hope he can find it with consistency.

His form sucks... It's been one of my issues with him, but after every interview he has I think... I'd want that guy on my team. I think he's taj Gibson level... Isn't a play making four but does a lot if good things and has a great attitude.

Lol.

Ya, that didn't look great at all. It's a slow wind up catapult.

No thank you

Nice. I think the Jazz FO would actually agree with me on this one. You're overvaluing Hood for his performance in mostly meaningless games towards the end of the year. Kevin Pelton's analytical comp for Hood most recently is Calbert Cheaney. I'm not in a hurry to trade Hood away by any means, but would do it if that's what it takes to get Hezonja, who will be a significantly better player. Quote me.
