Burke the Brick.

Most people stop bombing away. Trey doesn't lack confidence

All this time we were waiting for Dante to be our Kobe and now we see that it is actually Trey who has a chance of reaching Kobe level of... whatever it is that he did today.

Trey Burke equals Antoine Walker for worst three point shooting night since 1985-86 going 0 for 11. Only 2 to go 0 for 11 since 1985-86

Trey becomes just the 5th player in the last decade to shoot 2-19 or worse

Imagine Exum, Hayward, Favors, and Gobert getting 36 minutes. All we need is one at least decent defender alongside them and that could be the best defensive starting five in the league.

I know it's trendy to make fun of Kobe's chucking, but comparing Burke to one of the best players to ever play basketball...

 

[Saint Cy of JFC]

Burke falters against upper level PGs. Yeah he can beat Zach Lavine and Mo Williams, but anyone approaching a top 15 PG is going to wreck him.

Trey with 4 fouls tonight. He needs to be way more agressive on defense ... I want to see him foul out before the half.

And I thought Allen Iverson was a ball hog.

... That is his favorite player.


Never let an Iverson homer be your PG in a pass-first system.

Mostly so he's not available in the second half.

Hey, at least we didn't draft MCW. He would have gone 2-20!

HA! AI was one of them (though, he was one from a decade ago in 2003)
