What's new

Nick Young expected to test free agency, an option for the Jazz?

We will not sign him, but you better believe the man's jersey will hang from the rafters of the ESA someday.

A Utah Jazz legend.
 
So does no one here think Swaggy P is better than Burks?

It would be a hard choice for me tbh. Nick Young is such a good shooter, he is streaky, but he is one of the more consistent streak shooters. His only huge negative is that he has that trait that will force him to do something extremely stupid once every game or so, which is why I'm assuming why a lot of people here hate him.

Young actually has enough size that you could play him and Burks together off the bench also, not like we would have to choose between either one. I don't Young will get as much money as his stats suggest, so he might be affordable.

He can score some but usually takes bad shoots, not the smartest player out there. He is a chucker. Doesn't play much defense

However, he saved the tank tonight and i thank him for that
 
contra...
- He is not rebounding
- he is not playing defense
- he is not passing
- he has a bad attitude
- Bad shot selection sometimes
Pro...
- He is elite at scoring

Hmmm, I say No...

I think they're on the same level as scorers. But Burks has shown he can also be a system player and gives you double the assists at 3.8 per36 vs Young's 1.9. I'd also give Burks the edge on defense, Young looks completely disinterested at time.
 
To be honest, I hope they go Core5, Evans, Gobert, Neto, Garrett/Clark, rookies and then pick up trash in a cash dump for a team trying to sign a free agent. Go young to start and the bench, see what everyone can really do and then get aggressive in the 2015 offseason. Rescind the rights to all of our veteran free agents and then don't pursue any vets on the open market (unless it's a max guy like Melo - who they won't get.) Don't waste valuable money on veteran free agents when young guys and D-leaguers will be sufficient.

It's not that man, he is not a team player, that's the main reason why very few people like his game., not only on this board but generally.
