Trey Burke proving why Joe Dumars made the right decision by passing on him!

Here is his statline against Utah SL Game 1:

Spoiler:
8 pts (1-12), 5 asts, 7reb, 2 TO

Why would you bother making a thread about a player not on our team after one summer league game?

Kyle O'Quinn did a pretty good job against Drummond in the summer league last year.....man we should've drafted him instead of 'Dre!!

Trey Burke just wont cut it in the NBA with the lack of size and quickness

Because he looks like hes gonna have big troubles in adjusting to NBA size and pace. Today he was not quick enough, he struggled all game. I'm getting back at the Burke fanboys. :lol:

It's funny how Burke fanboys reacted when Dumars passed on him. Oh the memories are reminiscing :lol:

Trey Burke is gonna be an above average PG in the NBA bro... What he lacks in size and athleticism, he makes up for with his IQ for the game... He can run a team just like he did in college, bottom line he's a smart player that understands how to be an effective player despite lacking the size and athleticism for a prototypical NBA PG

No I wanted KCP for awhile. I really don't like Burke at all never wanted him just annoying seeing his name brought up everyday.

This is a very stupid thread. Do we overreact to one game in summer league on this board? We should just go sign Daye to a MAX deal since he dominates summer league!!!

I didnt want Burke either. I think he's a good backup at best in the league. However, one game in sl doesnt prove anything.

I love the spirit! But we also thought that Jonny Flynn was smart and was capable of running a team like he did in college. What I'm trying to say here is that the early indications of Burkes talent translating to the NBA is going against him. The fact that he struggled with his size, quickness and finishing today was for everyone to see.

It's true one game doesn't prove anything yet. I'm just stating that his flaws are real, and if HE went to us, it would honestly be worrying me already.

I agree. Somehow people here likes to judge here even though the player haven't played for us yet. Take a look at the Josh Smith and KCP threads! Atleast I judged someone after seeing him play closer to NBA level. :lol:
