Lyles dint vertically explosive, but has a good first step. More important IMO.

I still wouldn't be shocked if Burke gets off-loaded for future considerations. He's obviously not part of the long-term plan and his contract is very friendly for a team that might be looking for a floor general. Him and Cotton are very similar with the exception of Cotton being a guy that wants to be here vs. someone who is biding their time.
That general will do more shooting than anything, but a floor general nonetheless.

The Chris Webber comparison is intriguing me now. Much more similar to his profile and repertoire than Boozer IMO. Obvs he'll probably never have his scoring acumen, but who knows. That P&R play was very Antoine Walker-esque.
... he's on a multi-year team friendly deal. The Jazz aren't going to throw an asset like that in the trash by cutting him. If anything he'll be traded.
Lyles has a flat shot.

Lyles looks like a guy that other players probably enjoy playing with. I imagine he would be able to adapt his game to fit in with almost any team.
You disagree?

I was not impressed by lyles.
I noticed his defender usually sagged off him and gave him the outside shot..... When he took it, he usually missed.
I watched him in warm-ups and had an angle right behind him where he was shooting from (I watched him take about 20 shots from this spot. About two steps inside the three point line)
He made about 35% I would say..... Motum, cooley, and johnson were probably making about 70% from the same area.
From the angle I had while watching him shoot I noticed that his left hand does a weird side spin flick thing on his release and makes his shot go a little bit off-line.
Hopefully he can fix that weird hitch. (I never noticed it in highlight videos but it was very noticeable from the angle I was watching)
He also got out rebounded by that furkan dude multiple times when trey had the better position.
I think lyles only had like one rebound in regulation.
I didn't think trey looked horrible, but mildly disappointing

Yep, that intro about Cotton comes to Salt Lake was bad. Looked like it took Bryce by surprise as well.
