Everyone's favorite hearthrob before the Draft got sent down to the DLeage by the Hawks. In 2 games he is averaging 15 points 5 rebounds and 4.5 assists. Ironically the team he is playing with (Bakersfield) also is affiilated with the Jazz.
 
He'd be starting PG on JazzFanz dream lineup:

Shröder
Brewer
Jan Vesely
Biyombo
Sene
 
I understand now why players don't like to go to the DLeague, fans take it as a sign of patheticness. The league is there to develop players who aren't quite ready yet but have potential. Frankly, if it weren't for our injuries, I think GoBear should go down there to to learn how to hold on to the dang ball.

Edit: as for Schroeder, from what I understand, it's no surprise that he got sent down, he didn't seem to have any mid range game or the ability to drive to the basket. I'm sure he still has elite level lateral quickness, so it's up to him to figure the rest out.

It's funny how quickly the tide has turned...


One minute Schroeder was HOT in the SL, and Burke was not.


The next thing you know, Burke is in contention for ROY and Schroeder is sent to the DLeague...

Plus the Hawks are in a position where the Jazz have been - a playoff team that doesn't really have a good chance of winning the championship. So rather than continue letting Schroeder develop in the NBA at the possible expense of some early losses (and jeopardizing playoff chances), they've gone with Shelvin Mack as the primary backup PG for now. I'm sure Schroeder will regain most of the backup PG minutes by the time the All-Star break comes around.

Honestly, this is part of why I don't follow draft prospects too much - the Jazz are my team, and it seems like a huge waste of time following tons of players when so few of them will ever actually play for the Jazz.

And really, who are we to talk, we are letting our primary back up develop overseas while we play someone who should be a ten day contract guy.

I don't regret following Burke at Michigan last year AT ALL. It was fun watching him develop and being "the man" there. It was a roller coaster ride for sure, as nobody thought he would be within our range having the #14 pick and all, but the ecstasy we all felt at the draft was hard to replicate.

Seeing him now thriving on our team is "unreal". This time last year I was watching him at Michigan and remember my brother saying "He's too small". And now my brother has to eat his own words as he watches Burke lighting it up and making plays for the likes of Kanter and Favors.
 
"Lol kkk is the weirdest dude on the planet


dat jazzfanz.com mobile app doe"

I don't understand racist organizations either. Being open with controversial views can be damning.
