re: Ford: Pelicans final big board

Oh, and as for Burke, I couldn't complain there either. He's definitely a starter to me down the road, but his upside is certainly limited by his height and average athleticism. While I love his character and heart, I think he gets too consumed with that at times and ends up forcing ridiculous shots. You're loved if you make them, damned if you don't. In college, he made a few but sometimes I think we look at those moments a little too closely. Burke is not a player that will be head and shoulders above NBA guys like he was at Michigan, so we shouldn't expect him to be like that if he becomes a Pelican.
