Are you convinced he should be the pick?
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
Seemed sort of reckless with the ball in the second half, but I'd take him.
He's tough and talented in terms of backcourt skills, but on the defensive side of the ball I really worry about his lack of size and speed.
I still hold belief in Rivers for some reason, he was balling before he got hurt. If Otto Porter falls to us I think he should be the pick. If not..idk..im torn.

I definitely think he should be in consideration.

Just wondering if you watched the national championship or do you just believe everything you read? Burke played an okay game on D, and that while he was trying to carry his team to a win. Also, he had one of the craziest blocks I've ever seen a guard make. It was Eric Bledsoe like.Originally Posted by xulapaul
I don't really understand why but people keep picking apart his game. He goes on and continues to answer critics game in and game out. Unless he goes for 20/10 50+% every game, there's always some sort of criticism.
Forgive them, they know not what they say.
We could all be looking at a black piece of construction paper, and they would still debate it's not black enough to be black.
That's exactly what I said when it happened, reminded me of Bledsoe. Such a bs foul call.
he's the guy if porter is gone IMO. other than steals, CP3 & Trey Burke's sophomore seasons were eerily similar
agree 110%
Hopefully there are plenty of critics come the draft and he falls in Dell's lap.
I wouldn't saying "balling," he had improved from his horrendous start to being actually usable in chunks
never assume
I have to admit, other than last night I really havent watched much of him. I only know of him from what has been said here and other sites. I said no, not because of him or his play, only because there are players that fill bigger needs for the Pelicans. I'm hoping for a SF. But I wouldn't be dissapointed if we drafted him.

I can only hope that Burke somehow falls to us. Rivers being a Pelican means nothing at this point, if a talent like Burke comes along you don't pass it up. Rivers can be our 6th man or move him back to SG.
I was convinced 14 months ago.
I don't see why he and Rivers can't exist. Burke is a great scorer out of the pick and roll, can get to the cup at will and has hit some huge shots in college. I'm sold, the kid has a bright future.
I would not say Rivers was "balling." He had a few good games. He is not such a sure thing that we should eliminate PG from the equation at draft time.
The thing that impressed me with Burke in the tournament is that he seemed to be more of a floor general. He seemed to take control at the point, which is something we do not have on the team now.
I think Burke would be a good pick, but I'm not sold that he is "the" pick. If the Pels end up around 6 or 8 then I would be very happy with Burke. If they get one of the top three spots then I think guys like Porter or Smart would be just as good (if not better) choices.
The pelican may be the world's best designed killing machine. ~ Deadspin
I was impressed with what Burke did last night in spite of being sat down for nearly a qtr of the game. If he was in those 12 minuets his numbers would have been better.
I'm not thrilled with Smart. He reminds me of a Rodney Stuckey/Tyreke Evans type of PG where 3-4 years from now we'll be wondering where he fits in.
You all know my opinion, I need no convincing. It was fun watching him last night.
Wherehappens.
Burke is gonna be there at 6-8.
I'm just gonna leave this here.
I'm 100% sure that at 6'5" Vasquez could never get that high
