Where will Trey Burke End Up

Getting Traded

We know the Jazz were trying to use him to get a first rounder, based on what DL said. So, now what? Where does Trey end up? Detroit seems to have been mentioned a lot. Atlanta? Philadelphia? Wherever, it seems like we are going to get peanuts, literally, for him. Can't even get a late first rounder in an uncertain and what appears to be a weak draft. He may end up overseas.

After last night I'm under the impression we are going to get next to nothing for TB.
 
Considering what they gave up to give him, I don't think The Jazz can find a face-saving move to get rid of this guy. He may very well get stashed away again on the bench and then quietly dumped at the trade deadline.

Best case scenario he's filler in a S&T this summer.

Sign and Trades don't really exist anymore.
 
He will go somewhere for a second rounder when everyone strikes out on the mediocre pg market.
 
Best guess... Sacramento, Detroit, Dallas, Chicago, Charlotte.

The I think I'd work to send him to BKN and maybe make them take Tibor too... I like withey much more and would rather use a roster spot for someone else.
 
Burke will be traded once the FA merry go round slows. I could see Dallas as a viable option if they strike out and chose to blow it up. Parsons and Williams have already opted out of their deals. If they go somewhere else and the Mavs can't find another quality player to pair with Dirk they may just hit the reset button.
 
Burke is an NBA player... we should have kept him in the rotation. Could have been a mildly intriguing asset. Now will be a salary dump. We will not buy him out.

agreed, his lack of apparent value is almost entirely related to the way he was handled ie the DNPCDs and the up and down nature of his role. in a different situation, his value wouldnt have plummeted nearly as much.

He improved year over year and we still jerked his minutes around.

Eh, I think the jazz felt that he was not part of the future for the jazz and thought that neto and mack could be..... Also felt that neto and mack were much better defenders and not much worse offensively if at all.

I get that they could have been "showcasing" him but even if they did we wouldn't have got much at all for him anyway imo (Though definitely more than we will get now)

I like that they chose their guys (mack and neto) to go to war with (they were trying to make the playoffs after all) and stuck with them.
 
Trey burke shot 41% overall, 34% from three, and 48% efg.

Neto shot 43% overall, 39.5% from three, and 50.7% efg.

Mack shot 44% overall, 36% from three, and 50% efg.

Trey was the least efficient of the three (and yet jacked up the most shots of the three and averaged the least assists per 36 of the three) and was the worst defender of the three players.

Quin made the right decision imo

Completely agree. Trey's value didn't drop cause of whatever Quin did. NBA GMs aren't idiots, he just doesn't have value. He provides no more than someone you can pick up in the second round/DLeague/Summer League.

I get that but he was on a good pace prior to being yanked from regular rotation minutes. If he isn't part of the future we should have found an upgrade in FA. It was before the Exum injury and I get that, but if we were going to pull Burke out early then address that in FA.

Remember Neto was not brought in to be the primary backup... he was supposed to be D League development. The wishy washyness was confusing.

Anyway the difference in value is negligible I guess. He just gets more hate than he deserves.
