Burks has a better expiring contract than Korver and we got two second round picksI'm not arguing there is theoretical value in an expiring contract. I am arguing our front office is terrible at extracting real value from the available assets we deal.
Altman loves to make moves that require additional moves for them to make sense in the bigger picture. The caveat was mentioned above that you could flip Burks for something and that could adjust your opinion on this trade......but we also have a glut of contract assets at this point.
Any player with some promise at all, would have been better than what we got. He can prove me wrong by turning Burks in to something useful, I'd just bet against it.
Maybe Burks with a change of scenery will blossom. I highly doubt it so we move him for more assets or add him to help facilitate another deal
Trades don’t have to be one move then that’s it. NBA is more of a chess game roster and salary wise. You have to look to moves ahead
