Thats makes sense for Minnesotta. I don't really feel bad for Trey since he'll be a multi millionaire but, playing in Utah is bleh
There is an ample amount of salt in Utah. As a Jazz fan I am very excited about this move. I think Trey can fill a great need for the team. I have also heard that the Jazz are actively pursuing John Stockton as an assistant coach. So, maybe Trey can learn from one of the best point guards.
utah sucks.
Utah sucks as compared to the rest of the lottery teams??? Dont understand your logic.
This will be great for Utah and Burke. Despite the coaching change, they still love the Stockton style pick & roll and that's Burke's bread & butter.
I would upvote you 1,000 times if I could. It looks like they are going to let it ride with Brandon Knight and that is a shame.
Utah has a basketball team??? O_o
When Burke was still available when the Pistons were picking I was hoping so much they would pick him. Would have been so amazing to root for his team and have him stay in Michigan
Also: may the Pistons continue to suck.
Go Jazz. I'll be pulling for Trey Burke forever. He is one of my favorite Michigan athletes and I hope he makes those 8 other teams regret passing on him tonight.
Also, I'm done with the Pistons. They suck and I hope they suck forever.
can this Dumars thing go on....? I think he had a lobotomy 5 years ago.
Trey has always played with a chip on his shoulder. You better believe he will in the NBA. I have no doubt in my mind he will be a very good player for the Jazz. I am now a Jazz fan forsure.
I like the move for the Jazz--their 3 point guards are a combined nine million years old.
I also don't mind the pick for Trey. Deron Williams parlayed some years in SLC to a nice contract with the Nets. And not that I would be worried about this with Trey, but he certainly won't be distracted by the vibrant night life. At least after 8:30 p.m., that is.
Congrats, Trey!
Live in Lehi, Utah. 20 minutes from SLC. Getting my season tickets!! Finally someone to chear for in SLC.
"Burke. Fires, for THREE...The game is tied!"
May it often be.
Bias aside, Joe Dumars really screwed this up. Pistons need a true point guard or a scoring small forward, they have too many natural 2 guards - Brandon Knight, Rodney Stuckey, Kim English (However, I would have loved the Macklemore draft pick). With Trey and Michael Carter-Williams on the board, it was almost a cant miss - just take a point guard... Joe Dumars needs to be fired. His good draft picks, Andre Drummond and MAYBE Greg Monroe, were luck. This team is going no where without a gm that is competent, and an owner that shows up for things and cares.
Well they drafted Peyton Siva in the second round it seems.
Perhaps their New Orleans origin might make the moniker more coherent?
Still don't know why they didn't change their name when they moved from Louisiana to Utah in 1979.
Equally nonsensical.
Also:
Memphis Grizzlies
Calgary Flames.
At least the city of Winnipeg got to keep the name "Jets" when their team left town. Certainly helped upon the second decampment of an ATL franchise.

Go Jazz. Trey is gonna beat dat Piston azz.
Does anyone else hate the Smugness of David Stern?
Boo Pistons I mean Dumars.
Congrats Trey!
Well I just moved to SLC, so woot!
Love beer, found I just have to buy it from the state's stores to get the real stuff. Dig Uinta brewery thus far.
Stupid iPhone!
I have it on good authority that Shaq is way hung.
J/k but not really. Srsly.
Joe Dumars=worst GM in league. Let's look at his draft history failures...Cleaves, White, Daye, Stuckey, Darko, Maxiel, Knight. I know the only game I'll go to is when Utah comes to town so I can root on Burke.
Enjoy the unlmited nachos in your suite, you fat ass!
