Trey Burke. What more do you need?

[NAOS]

I definitely don't think he's worthless, but I don't think we're better with him than with an "empty guard" lineup, which would give us a much better defensive front.

I understand your case (it was included). Asking those without a brain.

In the end a few of these guys are not going to be with the Jazz but until they leave I will limit my criticism to rational/reasonable level.

Agreed

I don't think that Trey fits into Quin's offense. Trey is used to dominating the ball, and shooting when he has no other options. When we drafted Trey, I had visions of him being a strong pick 'n roll pg with Favors and Kanter. I rarely see that and the ball sticks with him way too much. He just isn't a great shooter to be taking as many shots as he does. The Jazz are leaning heavily on him because Exum isn't ready, I think it's time for DL to pull the trigger and move Trey and bring in a PG that is a ball mover and can defend.

Problem is he is not explosive enough to blow by guys and get layups (i.e., Chris Paul), and he isn't physically long or big enough to finish over guys (MCW, Dwill), so he HAS TO take those jump shots.


Problem is he isn't a great shooter like you said. Isiah who is even smaller, is playing well because he is hitting shots.

Isaiah Thomas also a number of effective shots around the rim. Thomas is also explosive and gets some separation.

I agree he needs to be in a system that allows him to dominate the ball in order for him to maximize his skillset. He's a smart player and will likely adjust, but Snyder system as of now isn't the best fit for what Burke does best. I expected a lot more PNR.

1st Paul isn't that explosive. I don't know why people put him in that group he doesn't belong.

Next I'll hold off on Burke as a shooter still too early to tell. But I think everybody will agree based on his physical abilities/limitations he has to be able to hit his jumper in order to be effective.

Paul may not be explosive but he is very fast.

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Jazz pace of play with Trey Burke on the floor is 97 possesions per game and with him on the bench is 88.5

Interesting stat.

Starters are better than subs.
Veterans are better than rookies.

I think the pace with Dante would be about the same if he were to be paired with the other starters. Likewise, unless Trey were to jack up shots early, pace would slow down if he were to be in the second unit with Gobert, Hood and Booker.

Paul may not be explosive but he is very fast.

Yeah may be I used the wrong term, I mean he's quick, he accelerates fast, change of speed is elite, he gets to where he wants on the floor with ease.
