I actually liked Burks coming out of the draft.

Could be a low-key good addition. I would say he’s the favorite to start at SG/SF. Waiting to see the moves that follow this though.

Burks off the bench 😁😁

Seems solid to me.

[GiantsSwaGG]

I thought he was going to be the next Wade

[ShadyOne]

He’s not bad. Would have liked more than one year, hate these merc one-years..

Especially at that money. Not a bad type of player to have around. With a TO, better for us, and better for possible trade value

[THE MTL]

By mid-season he will have stripped Frank of his starting PG position just like the other "Burk(s)" did

we winning the title now

I posted this in the FA thread, but Burks shot 39% on pull-up 3s last season which is pretty absurd. Definitely a guy who can create his own shot on the outside. We haven’t had a guy like that in forever.

Two of Burks’s best games last season:

[YoungStuna]

[NYKnickFanatic]

poor mans Allan Houston. Not bad. He has a post up game as well.

So barring further moves depth chart is:

Frank-Burks-RJ-Obi-Mitch
DSJ-IQ-Bullock-Knox-Randle
Harper-Powell-Iggy-Davis

Space for at least one more signing, maybe two unless we move Randle/DSJ, which could open a third spot.

ehh, its another stop gap signing. we haven't signed a potential long term piece since THJR, and then everyone hated it, even though that was finally a signing that made sense.

Soild singing, looks like he can be a playmaker also which is what we need. I see why they let Dotson go. I would of preferred a second year at least with a team option. Can't be upset at this signing...

Lol that signing never made any sense, regardless of how well he plays as a 4th option on a superior team now.
