What's new

Trey Burke working out at Terminal 23

I would hope to see him practice making passes to wide-open teammates instead of trying to drive inside against a double team.

Agreed.. he needs to pass more. With Hayward and Hood as offensive players and Gobert & Favors a ferocious dunkers he has all the fire power at his fingertips.
 
I was really excited when we drafted Burke....then I grew to be frustrated and disappointed in his play. But I will say that I respect his attitude and work ethic. Taking the benching last season with the attitude he had was really admirable. I still think/hope he can turn things around and be an average NBA PG.

Really I just wanna see the Jazz have a decent starting PG, feels like its been ages since we've had that
 
If only your boy Coach Snyder could implement an offensive system that would create those wide-open teammates...

Snyder has a system of ball movement. When Burke gets the pass the movement stops: unless you consider Trey dribbling to be "ball movement."

Burke saw plenty of chances last year as a starter and as a sub to hit open teammates. Watched almost all the games and remember screaming at the TV, "pass the damn ball!." Burke either has tunnel vision or is selfish. While Dante didn't drive nearly enough, Hayward (our best scorer) was much more involved in the offense once Exum became the starter. There was a thread (and no, I'm not going to search and bump it) when several posters on this board wondered why Hayward was often invisible during the 1st quarter. Answer: he rarely touched the ball when Burke started.

Trey (at least last year's version) is the antithesis of what Utah needs from their PG.

Snyder has mainly a pnr system. You don't know what you're talking about.

Hayward's post-All Star numbers were down. Again, you are making drama up.

P&R from various points on the floor. Not just the top and not just initiated by the PG. That's what I meant by ball movement. The primary play makers are Hayward or Burks (or Hood). The offense isn't designed for Burke to take the ball and keep dribbling until he decides to shoot or drive. And that's generally what happens. Trey is freakin' Carlos Arroyo without the flash.
