Ya nevermind.
I originally posted some stuff and decided I didn't want to anymore.

Can't delete a post on the app, only edit it so I just put nm.

Ok. That makes sense. I think we've all had that moment where after we comment it hits you that it's not even worth it. Lol

What reality? The one you choose to believe or me or any other poster? It's not even a matter of belief or disbelief in Trey's abilities. I think posters here often times are unfair and/or inaccurate with their criticism of Burke.

The reality that was so clearly evident in todays game that Trey is not capable of competing effectively at the elite level.

Do you really think it's unreasonable for people to be critical of a guy who shot the ball so poorly soooo often ?? Anyway as i've said before, i really like what he's doing this year, playing really heaps smarter and becoming much more effective in the role he's now playing

So yeah, the Jazz play out and get the 6th or 7th seed in the West. They push one of the top teams to maybe 5 or 6 games and wonder what to do next. It's nice progress for sure, but you have to wonder how high our ceiling really is if Gobert doesn't develop offense and Exum doesn't make us feel fine about passing on Giannis and CJ McCollum for Trey Burke. Jazz are a move or two away to get up into the upper tier. Otherwise, we might peak like Memphis as a 4/5 seed.

We'd also do well to replace Ingles with a real shooter off the bench.

What are you talking about. He only took 6 shots. Really should have been 5 as he was fouled on that layup. The idea you are using one game to say a player can or can't play is beyond me. So by your logic Hood isn't and good player? This is the kind of blind hate I don't get.

Prediction: In the final year of his contract, if the Pelicans still aren't soaring, Davis will request a trade to Utah, Denver, Portland, or Chicago with Utah and Denver being the more likely two.

Not sure how you came up with your list, or how Utah got to the top. How would three bigs who see themselves as starters all fit on the same team? Favors to the bench?

It's still really early. The jazz could be competing for the 5th or 6th seed this year, which is much better than the guillotine of the 7th or 8th seed. I really don't think Dallas, LAC, or Memphis has proven to be measurably better than us; GS, SAS, and OKC will definitely end up with better records -- the rest is TBD.
