Neto Officially signed.

I think we are trade burke guys. No one speaks to him or abut him and he is no where near the jazz. He is trade for a 2nd round I think

That could be a possibility but I think: Exum > Cotton > Burke > Neto


So if we're keeping 3, why not Exum, Cotton and Burke?

But i think its possible Neto is better than burke and cotton. I rememeber one time at SL and he is so much better than burke. Thats a long time ago.

your order is out of wack, I think. Everything will be determined in preseason, unless Trey is traded before. As it is now, I see it as Exum>Neto>Cotton>Burke in terms of importance to the team based on playing styles/potential. I think the Jazz see it like Exum......>Burke=Neto...Cotton. Cotton had a great game tonight, but the F/O has kept really close tavs on Neto in EU, and they brought him over for a reason, signed him to a multi-year, and want to see him succeed.

It is true. For example, last year Raulzinho was named MVP of Brazil x Argentina (Round of 16) in World Cup. On the court were Nene, Varejao, Barbosa, Huertas, Scola, Nocioni, Prigioni ..

I am with you and I think Neto will be very good for Jazz or they won't take him for 3 years.

Neto's line last season was: 8.9pt, 3.9assists, 2.7 TO, and shot 20.5% from 3pt line last year.


Not sure how that translates to him being better than Cotton or even Burke.

Different games. He was on a ****ty team, and I mean ****ty! Yeah, his shot is suspect, but if I remember correctly, he shot it pretty decently from deep in FIBA. He is better than Burke because he makes things happen for others, whereas Burke prefers to get blocked by the rim, or only make obvious passes. Neto is creative and plays with pace. Neto is also really good at getting into the lane, Burke is not. Neto and Cotton can both get in the lane, (but Neto is thicker and taller than Cotton, and can finish in traffic that he doesn't outrun). Both Cotton and Neto can pass, but Neto is more dynamic and aware of the seldom seen lines (again, you can't judge assists on **** team). Neto has both Cotton and Burke beat on defense too. Neto is lightning quick, like Cotton, but is longer, and was able to grab 2 steals per 36 last season (yes, steals don't indicate defense, but he is regarded as a good defender as well).
 
Neto isn't better than anyone until he proves it in the NBA.

Hard to project a guard who shoot 20% from deep in a Euro league to have success in the NBA.
