My main man Burke is having a hard time finishing at the rack among the trees and more physical defense of pro ball. He's really going to have to work on that. He'll be okay.

he's too slow. its a joke that people think he can be better than Kemba. that goes for Kabongo as well. i imagine leolovinliberal is crying rightnow

i think the lack of an nba level point guard is going to hurt our summer league team this year. its such a guard dominated league. if we dont have anyone to get biz and zeller the ball we could just end up seeing a bunch of ugly chucking. perhaps clifford will use MKG as our primary facilitator.

Burke definitely ain't on Kemba's level and likely never will be. That thread had to be a joke. I'm surprised that a was a real topic of conversation that drafting Burke to replace Kemba should be considered. The Kabongo thing was even worst. Burke will be fine in the NBA though. I still expect him to be in the top 3 for ROY. This is just a off game for him.

Burke does NOT look good. Just SL but still. We'll see how he does in the coming days tho..

Trey Burke will be fine. He's had games like this at Michigan, and still managed to win National Player of the Year

If Zeller starts he is the favorite for R.O.Y.

Probably between Oladipo, Zeller, and Burke

Somebody just told me that Michael Carter-Williams had 9 turnovers earlier today. Yikes. I know he chucked his way to 26 points, 8 assists, & 7 rebounds, but that's a awful lot of turnovers. He did lead the NCAA in turnovers though, so it's not unexpected

I wouldn't judge anyone by their 1st summer league game.

Don't forget the 6 turnovers.

drummond looks the same as last summer league. no touch at all. he should stick to dunks only

Drum's offensive game is the project, therefore that won't come around until after about 3-5 seasons, but it's his impact on the defensive end that will make him a vital part of what the Pistons are doing. He already has 5 blocks before halftime

The summer league is not a big man game...Drummond looks pretty good to me a ton of blocks and boards, his offense is pretty raw though...siva has some pretty good passes too
