Free Alec Burks

Did anybody notice how well Burks ran the pick and roll yesterday? He had some really good passes off the PnR to Kanter and Favors. Lately when Gordon runs it, he always swings the ball out to the 3 point line to reset the play but Burks is much more aggressive.
 
Yet another good performance from burks.

I noticed that... he should have had another 2 assists (one to kanter and one to favors) just from him getting into the paint and dishing off.
His defense has gotten alot better, and it doesn't seem like he has lost his knack for getting to the line...... it doesn't seem like anyone can defend him 1 on 1 and keep him out of the paint.

He needs to ****ing get minutes

Damn it! Is the organization really this blind!?!!
At this point, he might be our best wing. Think about that.
Its not Hayward anymore, he's got some sort of problem or scouting report on him. It's not Foye, his defense and rebounding sucks. Carrolle has no offense. Marvin's not aggressive.

Marvin just needs some feeds. Instead, the ball goes into Jefferson and ball movement STOPS.
Hayward tries to do too much. But yes, Foye needs to take a seat so Burks can play.
 
Bigger is better...

I truly don't understand what Foye does better than Burks.

I may be too old now...

But back in my playing days the coach usually started and played the best players because he wanted to win.

Burks shoots, scores, drives, and defends better than Foye. I cannot think of something Foye does better... Maybe FT shooting? But even that isn't great, because Burks gets to the FT line sooooo much more.

3 point shooting.
But when that's off, he sucks completely.
 
Burks says a game like tonight will help his development. "It wasn’t part of the last-minute stuff I usually get."

Alec Burks says, "I got drafted on my ability to get to the rim. I’m going to keep using it until somebody stops me.”
