Burks because he was the only part of the game I got any enjoyment out of.

I thought this was a perfect microcosm of Jefferson's NBA career: flashes of great individual offense spoiled by absolutely shoddy defense and poor decision making vs. the double-team.

I voted Millsap. I thought he did a good job and he didn't do it in garbage time. Burks showed some promise for sure but if he did that in the second quarter instead of the fourth he wouldn't be getting any votes.

Yup. No one... again.

Burks did everything in garbage time... how can he be the player of the game?

It dooesn't matter who b est player of the game is for the jazz. what is important is that Burks needs to start or back up the starting Shooting guard. Bench Bell. Corbin needs to let Favors play. even when he gets 2 quick fowls. Stop the nonsence.
Start Watson Burks Haywood Favors and Jefferson.

2nd team: Harris CJ Howard Milsap & rook.

Use Evans More. Sit Bell or trade him for some Big young in-exspensive cente.

Re-sign Kirlinko cheap!


Corbin, let the jazz run!!!!!!!

Sap.

Burks stuff came in garbage time, but that is a hell of a lot of points for <10 minutes of garbage time.

I'd say Millsap again. While I want Burks to be taking Bell's minutes (and starting), most of his stuff came in garbage time.

Yeah, Burks got it done okay. As soon as the game turned into a summer league contest, Burks was dominate.
