July 12 jazz game in vegas

I am really concerned about Burke. He looks like back up material. I hoped to see a little improvement but what I saw was him clanking shots, holding onto the ball too long, getting beat, looking slow and the team was far worse when he was in the game. I really hope he can improve, but he just may not have much more to give us.

He settled in pretty well on the defensive end. I think he had quite a few nice possessions.

What has me worried is his offense. The dude can't get by anybody. And, he's aiming his shot in the worst way. No confidence.
 
Burke looked slow, but I'm not too worried. He's a game manager and SL is a cluster F.

I thought Exum was really good. He got where he wanted to go and his defense wasn't horrible. He struggled getting through picks but I think most young guys do. He had some moments with his handle but he didn't lose control... I think that's a confidence thing. Great vision and just fast. Needs to work on his conditioning or get that red bull before the game.

Rudy Gobert... My goodness. Between his size athleticism and motor he will be special. He's out to kill it this year... Enes better be ready or he'll be on the bench. Got a T in a SL game and I just loved it. Can't wait for the next game.
 
I like Motums energy and movement. Thought he had a good showing in limited minUtes and was better than Murphy

The ball boys were better than Murphy... He shouldn't be allowed to dribble... Ever.

Motum was the best of the random white dudes. I think Thomas should make the team. He's impressed me every time he gets some burn.
 
Dont understand how people are making new assumptions about Burke based off a summer league game when we saw him for 50+ games last season.....

This.


It was very apparent playing side by side with Exum that Burke seemed unsure, slow, indecisive. Most of all, it was clear he lacked the quickness or the athleticism to succeed as our future PG. His limitations (none of which are his fault, BTW), were plain to see.


Damn Ty, even when you're gone, your impact on the team still remains..... ~__~
 
Erik Murphy absolutely sucks, he is so slow.

Dante Exum is going up be an All-Star.

Rudy Gobert is a straight up beast.

LOL. And how did he shoot in the 70 NBA games he played in last year?
Please feel free to look up actual statistics.

Yup.



Small sample size & it's Summer League, but when Burke went out and Exum was able to create, I think the Jazz scored something like 8 straight points in 4 possessions.



The guy just has a knack for creating chances, and making things happen.
