None since Tilmon, and his almost always came with foul trouble. If Burns can be a plus level shot blocker that dramatically changes everything we do defensively. That is a big unknown X factor heading into next year

Rotation comparison as of today: - alwaysright MU - 4/8 08:32:47

I think the idea that Burns is going to contribute much at - Delicious MU - 4/8 08:42:27

Absolutely delusional. Vanover w/ no experience - ferret mcmarmot MU - 4/8 08:52:25

There seems to be a point where height ceases to be an - Mormad MU - 4/8 09:15:05

This is correct. There are a few exceptions and - alwaysright MU - 4/8 09:20:14

Vanover could have been a good asset if used differently - FIJItiger MU

What the heck are you talking about - BlackSheep MU - 4/9 11:25:31

He was not a good player - alwaysright MU - 4/8 10:50:32

agree. You could use him differently but it would - SabertoothTiger MU - 4/8 13:24:59

Eric Musselman disagrees. - Sigma MU - 4/8 10:23:55

agree. (nm) - SabertoothTiger MU - 4/8 09:01:55

Have you seen him play? He runs alot better than Vanover... - BandG MU - 4/8 09:00:56

i'm not arguing, but if he can do all those things, why - 90Tiger STL - 4/8 09:08:48

RE: Injury - 90Tiger STL - 4/8 09:36:25

Running and jumping have nothing to do with opponent - alwaysright MU - 4/8 10:00:55

He did it it in practice after he recovered from his injury. - BandG MU - 4/8 11:38:14

or being good at basketball. Great thread (nm) - 90Tiger STL - 4/8 10:21:01

You responded to a post talking about running and - alwaysright MU - 4/8 10:42:21

I hope he surprises me. I'd be surprised if he isn't - SabertoothTiger MU - 4/8 09:05:44

top 75 vs unranked is maybe not the best comparison, but - alwaysright MU - 4/8 08:55:42

It’s not a failure if he doesn’t contribute much next year - ferret mcmarmot MU - 4/8 09:16:06

I don’t think he’s ever going to be a guy that holds - alwaysright MU - 4/8 09:18:15

That’s exactly right, he’ll be overpowered one on one but - ferret mcmarmot MU - 4/8 09:32:29

Can he become a Trevon Brazile - Mormad MU - 4/8 09:24:10

"whether or not Burns is the unicorn they say he is. Big IF" - alwaysright MU - 4/8 08:44:58

as of today: - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/8 08:37:58

A good Pierce would be an added important bonus(nm) - oldtgr MU - 4/8 09:17:13

He got better. Needs to keep improving and be more - Mormad MU - 4/8 09:56:37

Probably, but that's why I say Burns could be a key. - alwaysright MU - 4/8 08:42:42

Burns or Marshall or a transfer (nm) - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/8 08:49:17

I would have been ok with a transfer center, but not - alwaysright MU - 4/8 08:53:19

I still think the goal is a transfer center - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/8 08:57:58

Then Porter & Northweather were a waste of resources - alwaysright MU - 4/8 09:15:56

Porter will be better as a backup at the 4 spot - wu-tangtiger MU - 4/8 09:24:40
