Interesting video on Kyrie vs Thomas - where would Burke fit on the continuum?

I'm thinking Burke is a bit more Isaiah in terms of size, athletic ability and his below the rim play?

Why don't we just get this Kyrie guy. He seems serviceable.
 
Would he fit right in the middle?

I'm not liking either comparison. Thomas is a midget but does have elite speed that can destroy slower PGs. Irving has both elite speed and size so can go into iso beast mode and get to the rim at will. Burke is not elite in any physical trait as we know so will be almost a pure pick and roll point guard. I'm sure the Jazz management view it the same way, and are perfectly fine with it.
 
I think he will surprise a lot of people when he wins rookie of the yr and proves that he belongs in the league. I can't wait, cuz this guy can play, and he will win over a ton of people pretty quick.

One thing that was not addressed was injury proneness. Irving seems to get hurt too easy and then is out longer than he should be.

Irving overrated? Starting to seem that way.

Trey Burke will revolutionize the point guard position, and will be in the MVP discussion before the end of his second season. #TheOriginalTBUltraFan
