Trey Burke's Free Throw Shooting

[r_u_s_t_b_u_c_k_e_t]

He attempted (and made) his first free throw in the month of February tonight. It was only his second attempt in the Jazz' last nine games. Over the same stretch of games he has shot 48 three pointers.

Discuss.

He needs to attack like he did early on. He is kinda chucking lately.

 

[ljnapoli]

He's subpar.

CJ Miles would be proud of him.

Burke was perfect from the line again tonight: no misses (no tries). He has attempted 52 three pointers over the past 10 games and shot 2 free throws.

Trade him now, or just cut him..thats the answer Im sure

I dont think that would be a good idea. Burke isn't tall, athletic or strong enough to attack the rim. He would be blocked all the time. He could penetrate in the paint in order to kick out or finding one big.

He is a great passer, he needs only to learn to take good shots. He is forcing too much. Im not concerned about him, thats all correctable rookie mistakes.

you'll see that his role has changed. he is like 4th option. he is not the man of this team. he is just one of the dudes. mentality needs to change. stop being a scrub. be a leader and be the alpha dog. who cares if he is a rookie? @#$3ck that. stop worrying about learning to be PG. you da shoot first, playa. he needs to know that he is a bad man. stop looking to set others. start attacking. attack and attack. watch some of trey's best game this year. he was a bad boy. right now he is a good boy.

good is bad

bad is good

in trey we trust


you can do it!!

 

[Fabtrey]

or maybe he doesn't want to end up like drose, westbrook or any other injury prone pgs.

 

[Game6Conley]

even if trey played every game this season, at this pace, he wouldn't qualify for the FT% stat by the end of the season.

 

[r_u_s_t_b_u_c_k_e_t]

... thats the answer Im sure

The answer to what? You think it's a problem that he's shooting 25 times more three pointers than free throws?

According to Locke, Trey's last two free throw attempts both came after a technical foul. So, he hasn't drawn a single shooting foul over the Jazz' last eleven games. He has tried 59 three pointers (making 31%) over the same stretch.
