Game #15 New Orleans Pelicans @ Utah Jazz -- Sat. Nov. 28th @ 7pm MST

Don't think the spin move fadeaway jumper is the shot you want Burks taking but it looked good and went in
 
I don't know if anyone smiles more or seems to be having more fun out there than alec Burks.

Maybe Booker

"I've made a lot of highlights, so when I make comments on the subject, you can be assured that I know what I'm talking about. So believe me when I say this:
Alec Burks has some of the most "highlighty" highlights of any player.
His ratio of lame buckets to cool buckets is off the charts. He can't attempt a normal layup; every drive to the basket must feature acrobatic contortions and lots of english. I don't feel like checking, but it seems that most of his buckets are unassisted. Iso-ball, a dying art practiced almost exclusively by the wizened elders of the NBA, lives on in the young Alec Burks."

He really is larger than life. Would get tons of hype if he played on any number of other teams, but I think he likes being off the radar a bit--I hope so!
 
Way to finish it with the hood to Gobert ally oop.

Awesome game
 
I never get to watch full games, but have we seen a salute this season?
Ya he has done one so far.
I don't remember what he did though. Just remember his salute slowed him down and he didn't get back on defense and the other team scored lol
 
On both jumpers lyles made so far he shot the ball quickly and then right when it left his hands he was starting to move down the court.
Then in his three point miss he shot the ball and stayed where he was with his shooting hand held in place on the follow through and missed it pretty badly.

This is something im going to keep an eye on as the session progresses
I'm sure it has more to do with how the shot felt to him than with how the follow through is impacting the shot. It's an interesting observation, though, and I like your recap of the game.

And he did it while we were down by like 20 points. Worst salute ever.
