Do we resign al farouq if we draft burke?

nah. i'm on a jason smith high right now. give him that money. dont let him play his last year without a deal. cause if he balls out....he gone!! aminu might not have shown enough promise to get a good deal.

aminu and lopez in the starting lineup= . both guys are reserves at this point.

it is a winner. i dont know what your seeing, but last time i checked burke is a great scorer, passer, clutch, and led his team to a national championship game. That is a lot different then vasquez's slow passed, ball hoggish, forced shots kind of game.
if you want a championship you will need an elite pg and that is what burke will be in 2 to 3 years and will be a solid starter in his rookie year.

It is also a winner because gordon will hopefully be healthy, aminu will hopefully have a better jumper, davis will be stronger and better, and lopez is a solid starter.
sounds like a winner to me.

not many will argue burke but like i said aminu and lopez

yes i agree, I dont really like lopez, but i personally don't mind aminu.

his strengths are defense, rebounding and running the floor both ways. bad thing is that he's a sf who cant shoot or create shite for himself. just athleticism

He'd be a solid backup. He's gettin heat here, but he's not as bad as they're making it out to be. Our defense was several points better with him on the floor and he rebounds at an above average rate.

Unfortunately, he doesn't do the whole other side of the floor. It's a shame he can't shoot just well enough to keep the defense honest, Ariza-ish, then he would be a solid starter.

It's plain and simple.... YES.

He won't command big money on the open market, Monty likes him & we gave him serious run on the court when he was on the verge of being considered a bust.

He's still young, extremely athletic, freak on the glass for a SF, & has the potential to be a stopper on D. I think he's a very good piece as a starter next to AD while we upgrade the PG position and we simply pair him w/ another shooter at the SF position in FA or possibly the draft.

We should keep AFA if the price is right (ie pretty much the minimum with team options). He'd be a great guy off the bench for rebounding and defense. I wouldn't necessarily want him as a starter though.

Adding Burke, Martell Webster and Pekovic (longshot I know), with Ryno, Smith, Vasquez (Or Burke), Rivers and AFA coming off the bench is a roster with a lot of potential.

I would not mind keeping Aminu. But i fricking hate Lopez and i think he is garbage. He can barely even rebound.... Piece of shite

Dude, you need to address your anger.
