Exactly.
Burke has been one of the revelations of the tournament, imo. When he was signed in July, there was a lot of speculation that he was unlikely to see the floor for significant minutes, or even at all.
Carlisle said that the Dallas system is more suited to take advantage of Burke's strengths than Philadelphia's is. All credit to Trey, but also to Rick for putting this fellow into a position to succeed.
As one who at times is critical of Coach Carlisle, I have to 2nd those props. We've often posted about his preference for small ball and for guards. Burke should recognize he has a really good fit in Dallas system when he negotiates his next contract.
