What's new

why so many of you giving up on Burke? He is our future PG, period!

Yes. A coach who blames you and throws you under the bus for injuries and HIS inept job. Tape watching and practice is all good, but you need PLAYING time.
I'm not saying Kanter is going to transform into an all-star next season. But he will improve. Maybe he IS a bust. In that case, Lindsey should draft Vonleh. However, from what I've seen, Kanter has some very good interior moves and is a good offensive rebounder. Burke? I've seen him shoot bricks and be ineffective trying to get inside. Oh yeah, but he DID have one game-winner so he gets a complete pass for his otherwise horrible shooting. Seriously, Burke will also get better. But he's ALWAYS going to have physical limitations. Deron wasn't the fastest guy, but he was big and could outmuscle other PG's. However in the this league when you're slow AND small, it just doesn't bode well for success.

Actually player improve more with practice than playing time. You don't develop post moves, shot, or improve your dribbling in the middle of a game. Those things are improved in the offseason usually with trainers.
 
These highlights show Burke getting to the rim, hitting clutch shots, and making plays.
