I'm positive there was more than one time when he was met with resistance taking the shot for himself.

Of course it was one of the games where it seemed like the other team was three steps ahead in terms of defending our passing lanes.

So any time you take a shot and someone is defending you it's an iso?
 
Early in the season, Utah had a losing streak where everybody blamed Exum.

Then they had a streak after Favors came back, and it was his fault for messing up our spacing.

So at this point, I think we all need to admit that Alec Burks is ruining our team. It's only fair.

He has a good first step, just not a great finisher.

Yeah, his first step is decent, but he doesnt seem to know what to do. He isnt great in traffic going up. He opts for the floaters. I thought the one time he pushed it in transition to try and get something at the rim it looked really good until the moment he went up. He has to be more forceful going to the rim and get stronger.
 
I envision a Jazz practice where Favors, Lyles, and Gobert sink these 8 foot floaters all day and the elation that they will score them in a game

He had some strange shots going towards the basket. I'm not sure what to make of the guy... has looked like straight trash all too often.

I mean, it's the same thing with Exum. He just isn't good at going up in traffic and attacking the top of the rim. Lack of strength and lack of ball-handling comfort are probably the two main problems I'd guess.
 
Rough night and really bad timing for a rough night. Honestly I'd rather play the rockets in the playoffs... maybe we can hit the sixth seed. Beating Houston in the playoffs is so fun... think of all the clutch fans vitriol. This is what I'm rooting for.

he isn't ruining the team but i don't know he's doing much to help us win ??

I'd be pissed if we trade Favors, i still think it's worth waiting for him to be right even if it's next year.

He's always had awkward looks. Has improved and then every now and again throws one out there that makes you think it may have been the first layup he's ever shot.

Lyles has regressed... no focus, shooting has disappeared, and hasn't improved at anything I can see. I had such high hopes.
