Second round maybe

I feel he is a trap, big man with no stand out length and can not shoot from outside, limited ceiling to win championship as part of your championship core imo

Stats rule this board.
It trumps everything.

The article about him perfecting his mid-range game is spot on. I was skeptical at first but it's clear that he has reinvented himself. He's a starter for sure.

hes been playing D all year long. people were just too ashamed to admit it. just like how they don't want to admit burke can actually be the long term starter here. they in denial.

You can't fix anything by constantly changing the team. You have been here long enough to know better. The revolving door of players over the last decade plus hasn't been working.

nobody is worth hanging on to. who did we let go that's a major regret ? the guys we let go are not the problem. it's the ones we decided to keep.

It is not about who we have given up. Its about needing to build something concrete. Why is it that other teams like Cleveland have been able to use our spare parts to win titles? You get young players that fit what you want to do, develop them as a unit for 3-5 years while you build upon them each year. Look where Toronto and GS are right now because they decided to stay the course for a couple of seasons longer. Toronto was ready to start clearing house and trade a journey man PG at the time to us.....

We have players we just need to stay the course and develop them while stock piling assets.

Because their core pieces were already in place. You can afford to get role players at that time regardless of cost.

Tim Haradway Jr. (who is shooting 42.2 percent from the field) is currently shooting 53.6 percent after passes from Burke. Even more impressive, rookie guard Frank Ntilikina is shooting 31.4 percent from three-point range but 53.8 percent from long range when he has received passes from Burke.

Hardaway just needs to wait for Burke to set him up from here on in.

Folks here riding the Burke performance to a dream world where we can compare ourselves to GSW.

Kristaps Porzingis cursed out Jeff Hornacek during a practice late last season, according to a source. Porzingis reportedly used the F-word.

The incident likely contributed to why Porzingis skipped his exit meeting last offseason.

At the time, the main factors cited for Porzingis' no-show was his displeasure with Phil Jackson and the treatment of Carmelo Anthony.

Hornacek has also been on the receiving end of profanities from Joakim Noah and Kyle O'Quinn.

Cancerous behavior, no?

A player who can feed guys in their spots is tremendous.
