Burks 4 year $42 million extension!

[Diamond77]

I'm ok to keep Burks...but both him and Hayward, Favors are overpaid...that's the reality!

The worst thing is that very probably neither of them will ever be an All-Star!

Zach Lowe's thoughts on this:

Feel like we have to hold off evaluating these extensions till we know cap mechanics. But Kemba/Burks deals strike me as...a lot.

I guess paying someone 10 per year is the new 8 per year with new tv deal, looking at it that way Im happier.

I like all these players, so it's hard to be mad, but it just feels like we're building a mid-tier team. Which is frustrating.

He has been shooting it well, though I get kind of frustrated with how he catches it, pauses or takes a rhythm dribble, then shoots. Seems like he makes some of his shots way harder by not pulling the trigger on the catch.

Best day in Jazz history.

kanter is really going to be trade bait at this point.

Agreed. That is frustrating to watch.

If we could even make the playoffs, I would be happy. I remember all those years of Dwill we had gotten jaded with making the playoffs, but damn, at least it gave us some hope. We may never have been contenders, but we had a small chance. I miss the days of making the playoffs.

This is true. At the same time, it just seems so...defeated. Don't get me wrong, I'd be thrilled with the playoffs, but it just feels like we're never even going to contend for a championship, and that's frustrating. Hopefully we get lucky in the lottery this year.

Lance Stevenson is making less than Burks. Dennis Lindsey is insane.
