And as sappy as it may have been, did anyone else interview the draftee's father, like Locke did? He would have even talked with Burke's mom had she wanted.

Yep, as a fellow Christian, I am 100% sure that his family was touched by what the Jazz did at both the Press Conference and what Locke did. You can't fake these things, they felt the "Love".


BTW Jazz's Press Conference was one of the the only ones that welcomed the players' family.. the others were just too "rushed".

Yeah, stinking atheists have no appreciation for such things...too busy spreading doubt and hate.

The thing I noticed about the Jazz press conference was it was a celebration of our amazing draft day victories. The FO was all smiles and boasts about how well the draft went and how excited we all are for the future.

For a guy like Burke who claims he's been passed over and underrated his whole life he sees an NBA organization and an entire city buzzing all because we got him. I think that's got to feel pretty good regardless of religious affiliation.
 
Give the kid the keys & let's see what he can do. He seems to thrive under pressure.

I'd love to see a pick of Burke with Hayward and Burks in front of him and slightly to the sides with Gobert directly behind Burks and Favors and Kanter behind Hayward and Burks. Laid out so Burke is in the center. Matching unis (preferably the green ones becaus elets face it they are awesome looking) of course.

Not only that, he sees a team that traded UP to get him. In one of his interviews, he talked about expecting to go in the 2-7 range. Perhaps he thought the Pistons were his floor, since Knight has struggled with trying to be a true PG. I can just imagine his disappointment as he slides down the board, only to be blindsided by then getting picked by Minnesota. There had to be a "WTH?" (what the heck) moment as he thought about how he could possibly fit in with a team that already had a franchise PG in Rubio. Then he finds out about the trade in his interview while he's feigning excitement over playing in Minnesota. I was incredibly impressed by his poise, composure and graciousness in all his interviews. And now as he and his family sit and reflect, they realize that even though he was drafted lower than expected - and it costs some money initially - he's probably in the best situation he could have hoped for: a franchise that loves PG's, practically invented the P&R, and will be desperate for his scoring.
 
I don't know why, but getting Trey Burke almost feels like we grabbed LeBron James.
I'm still feeling a high off of this ****!

Well we all know he's not LeBron, but he's the piece this team needed the most.
 
KOC--Jazz tried to trade in to draft Trey at 6, 7, & 8 and got turned down. Then at 9 they found somebody interested.

So the Zeller and KCP picks were key in obtaining Burke. Most thought those two would be drafted AFTER Trey. Pushed him down the board a couple of spots
