we may have found our own version of oladipo. we finally got that late bloomer who could blow up here in new york. we lit!
Imma say this
If Burke can finish the season strong, and keep it up through the start of next year, he can stay as the starter. Even though I hate on him, the guy at least tries on defense (which is all I ask), and it's a nice story for the guy to find his role after almost being out of the league
I just think like, we've seen stuff like this before. We're a bad team, some guy comes along and starts putting up stats, and we think "this guy is the future" but when it comes time for us to be good, he goes back to being bad. Like, how Galloway was gonna be part of our core, or Willy was gonna be the next Marc Gasol (dudes shooting 38% in 14 games in Charlotte), both guys I was really high on
I'm just more mad that the one time I take a hardline stance against a player, he actually plays pretty good
i can see where you're coming from for sure. difference is though, burke was a lottery pick. he always had a high ceiling. i think he may have finally reached it. i never believed gallo was anything more than a role player, or willy being marc gasol.
let's just hope he can keep this up. cause man, we might've finally hit the jackpot.
