Tbh, I think if you gave Burks 30+ mins per game, gave him screens and told him to shoot or drive whenever the opportunity presented itself, he could average 20 pts on 42%/30% from the field. So the comparison on the trade really isn't Burks vs. Korver. It's who do you give the reins to and who was going to be on the team next year. And who has the bigger upside. Production wise, Burks should average more than Korver.
I'm not really concerned with the picks. Lindsey hasn't found anyone in the 2nd round outside of Neto and he's sold the pick a couple of times. My concern with the trade has always been letting go of a good expiring. Could a better player have come along nearer the deadline for which you need a couple of large expirings, for example, Porter for Favors and Burks and other assets? Almost tells me Lindsey doesn't intend to do anything at the deadline. He'll hedge his bets for the summer and make sure he can retain Favors if no one else agrees to sign (which they won't). Big name FA's want to play for a contender, not an organization content with just making money.
