Get the crows out for the korver haters

There should be a fine gap between paying too much and not paying anything at all. you probably wouldn't see anyone complaining if it was Niang or Allen that we sent over to Cleveland.

We paid the nba equivalent of a 20% off coupon at bed bath and beyond and a 7/11 free slurpee card with 8/10 holes punched.

I’d be pissed if it was Allen.

Second rounders ain’t all that... especially how we use em... put I mean if we didn’t have that extra second round pick last year we never would have been able to move up 2 spots so we could select The Great Tony Bradley over that bust josh hart.

He can redeem himself.

Here's how:

Jazz are in the finals. Korver is currently sitting with a finals record of best 3pt% for anyone ever, but by only one shot. Jazz are 2pts down with 15s to go, Korver gets the ball for a corner 3... and takes the shot.

That's it. I don't care if it goes in or not. I'll forgive him.

He'll never get the chance because Donovan will take a 35ft'er and miss it badly. I love Donovan, but he's still a chucker from deep. He needs to be less concerned with how many attempts he gets per game and more concerned with reducing the number of really bad shots he takes
 
If Bulletproof were in Cleveland he would have never forgiven Lebron for "The Decision." Probably would have booed him after Cleveland won the championship saying it was all Kyrie and James should just leave.
 
Considering the immediate results and the impact getting Crowder made for last year’s team. . . I’m amazed anyone still thinkis this was an overpay. Korver is the offensive equivalent of getting Thabo to tudor Mitchell, Ingles, O’Neale and Allen on offense. Two years of that could be a priceless investment.
 
Has Utah become Cavs West?
Too bad we didn't get that other Cav that left last summer. What was his name?

I like Burks, but 4-11 is pretty awful. He did get to the line 8 times which does negate some of that.

Still, Korver's line was much more impressive IMO.

Korvers field goal shooting line was more impressive for sure.

But imo 6 rebounds is better than 2, 4 assists is better than 1, zero turnovers is better than 1, 2 steals is better than zero. Oh and for what its worth burks was second on his team in plus minus and korver was 6th on his team in plus minus. Both players didnt commit a foul. Then there are the fouls that burks drew.

Im not hating on korver at all and the trade looks great for the jazz but burks putting up 15 points, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, 2 steals, zero turnovers in 26 minutes and only having a negative 3 while on court in a game they lost by 33 points is pretty damn awesome despite the 4-11 shooting. Which isnt pretty awful btw. It isnt good but it isnt that bad either. Add in the free throws and his true shooting percentage is actually fine for the game.
 
Burks isn't a great basketball player and he definitely isn't a specialist of any kind. He is a great human being but Korver helps us win ball games because he is a better basketball player and is a specialist.

Move on people.

Korver had more overall impact on a game for us tonight than Burks has all season.

He’s an okay player, but this is a better fit for both sides, and it’s so obvious that it’s not even worth debating.

Maybe. Burks has won us a couple of games this season though. Meanwhile crowder was on fire last night. Maybe you think simply having korver on he team mean jae will shoot 62% from the field and 60% from 3 for the rest of the season but i have my doubts.

I still do agree that is was a good trade for the jazz though and the right move to make.
