Anyone else that you think is a better comparison? I see alot of Evans because he is more likely to score by using quickness to get to the hoop than by shooting jumpers. Also, I think it is fair to say Tyreke is a smaller, quicker swingman, than say a Dwayne Wade, Kobe Bryant or Brandon Roy.
I guess there may not be another player in the league similar to Burks, which is fine in my book.
Well, Tyreke is as big if not bigger than all of those guys. I think the Roy comparison is apt. They aren't athletic freaks but they are sneaky and quick and so crafty around the basket. They move very similar. Just look at the way they both get their shot up around defenders. I would say Roy has a more dependable jumper and of course he was extremely clutch. Burks may be a better defender?
