WOJ: Korver to Jazz for Burks and 2 second rounders

You'd think that with they way the league is now that a guy with the ability to shoot 50% from three would be one of the more valuable players in the league. Instead he is just a scrub fringe player barely getting off the bench on the worst team on the leage.
 
You don’t understand why a player with an elite specialist skill would be enticing to an NBA team, especially a skill as important as the 3pt shot,to complement the stars that you may already have?

Why not just sign Jimmer Freddette?

Same logic.

Could have saved a couple picks and an expiring.
 
Our Gm realizes in December that, except for Ingles, there are no roster shooters .. but what did he think in the off season? Korver, who I like, is 37, goes to take the place of our 23-year-old rookie ... when we say programming ...
 
I'm bummed Burks is gone, but hopefully he does well in Cleveland. Still, while he had his moments here the past couple years he never seemed to quite fit.

Even though Korver is kind of ancient, as long as he can hit some 3s I'm happy. This team needs shooting in the worst way.

So if you were a part of the Cavs FO when Lebron wanted Korver, you would say, ‘why not just sign Jimmer, same logic’?

You’re bringing up a dude who was in the nba for 5/6 years, compared to Kyle who has survived in the nba for 15 years.
 
Anyone care to explain why Klay Thompson who seemingly has a similar skill set and even shoots a lower 3 point percentage than Korver, happens to be 10x the player Korver is? Besides the obvious. We know Klay is better defender. But Klay isnt known for taking people off the dribble. Or being a play maker. Yet, somehow he makes a much larger impact.

Its much more than analytics. Korver isnt good.

He's got to be trolling man.
 
We are talking about a top 5 three point shooter of all-time here. Both Reggie and Ray were effective at age 37 and 38. Guys that do what Kyle does can play forever.

Just wait... he’s going to help a lot.
 
Ok folks. Now for the million dollar question. Where does Korver fit in the rotation?

SG? SF? PF? Starter? Bench? Rotation? Other?

Maybe he just takes Niang's minutes? Maybe Burks? Maybe??

My guess would be 15mpg backing up Ingles. Not terribly exciting.
