Time to Eat crow burks haters

While I have not been as pro Burks as some I was never against him. I am thrilled to see him putting it together.
 
Funny. I've been saying for years that he isn't a starter, and he sure as hell isn't a PG...and now that he is playing backup SG, he is excelling? Wow, right again. Good job green, good job.

Man, Burke & Burks is a lethal backcourt, it would be criminal to spare them.

Burke - Burks - Hayward - Kanter - Favors

Burks has been playing great. No denying that. BUT, how many outside shots did he hit against Denver?

I believe he was 2 for 4 from outside (15 feet plus) and is shooting 43 percent from three in the last month and a half

1 - I was right on Burks playing SG and not PG. Every second he played PG was a waste. He isn't a PG.

2 - He did against Denver what we all knew he could do. That doesn't mean he is a starter. That means Denver didn't scout him. If he can keep this up, especially when other teams pay attention to him, then great. I'm wrong.

3 - I hope I'm wrong.

He's been solid, no doubt. The team's definitely settling down some. It'll be interesting to see how the players grow in their roles and as a team if everyone's health holds up. This team doesn't have the mature talent to win while missing a couple rotation players.

Maybe this Team has drafted the right group of players, but the wrong coach ? This team would be much better, with the right coach. The talent is their, but the development is way to slow. When Anthony Davis started playing in the NBA, he had the body of a 15 year old...

Burks always was superior to Foye, but he got lots of DNPS.... Their is not much that has changed, Burks is just getting the opportunity to shine... Burks always was a special prospect, atleast he was a lottery pick. With the right amount of PT he would be a better and more complete player right now.

LOL...I remember when so many were down on Burks. I said then to play him at point guard, shooting guard and even small forward, but play the man so he can show what he can do. Again blows on fingertips and rubs them on my chest.
