I doubt there will be because of where the game is at. Statistics dominate the game and I don't see a team conforming to A.I's heavy inefficient volume of shots.
I feel like Ja and Westbrook are the closest we will get. They don't necessarily play like Ivo, but they relentlessly, fearlessly attack the rim and aren't afraid of any moment on the court.
He did. Mavs my team. I think when they was playing the clippers those two straight years he actually was ballin I want to say he went for 30 one of those games or probably 20. But yeah trey burke legit seriously if Utah never thought exum was special trey burke would still be ballin for the jazz lol.
@@Youngsta897 Very true, I think the league is loaded with talent as well and not every player is going to get a shot at always getting playing time. I've seen players go from having a decent year to barely even playing the next season. There are so many factors involved..
Trey was good in college and his game resembled AI at times in the league , even similar jumpshot forms but AI was a top % athlete that was the main difference , AI had the speed , quickness and just all around better jumping ability , Burke was very limited and nowhere near the ball handler or finisher
Curious how he hasn't tested the waters in Europe where smaller scoring guards have found success. Mike James and Shane Larkin comes to mind. May be that's in his future.
Asked for this ages ago and glad it's done 🙌🏾. But have to disagree with AI comparisons, at least initially. Burke is neither as quick nor as athletic as Iverson was; his shifty game allowed him to beat people at UM but didn't give him enough separation in the pros to dominate. He also tried to score his way thru NBA games instead of being a more balanced PG. Was once compared to Chris Paul in college but just became a one-note scorer in the pros. Definitely Stunted.
Tiny Archibald was a short player that led the league in scoring and assists. He was listed as 6’1”, but was likely shorter. You forgot about him on stunt #1
I honestly believe he said that because of how they somewhat resemble each other when it comes to height and looks. I used to watch him when he was on the Knicks and he definitely didn't play like Allen Iverson.
A major reason to iverson"s success as opposed to burkes was that he was lucky enough to be with an organization that amplified his confidence. Not just his teammates but the organization as a whole, burke was bounced around.
@Stunted Growth Great content as always. If possible could you do one on Jabari Parker? I'm not a Duke fan but with him being from my hometown Chicago, I thought this dude had lots of potential to make it, but something happened
I just tried to search for this video a couple days ago thinking you would’ve already covered him by now lmaoooo. Then not even a week later you made it.
Idk Man. His stint with the Knicks. I remember hearing Clyde Frazier talk about his defense one game in a short sample size only to back track it a few games later when He was named starter. Like let’s be for real… Defense in todays NBA!? His Knicks run was pretty good. He should’ve remained a knick but.. Knicks wanted him gone in favor of Frank Ntilikina 😂 I remember one time if you type in Trey Burke knick hightlight.. Man’s was breaking out double doubles like he was A All-Pro. Only Knicks PG with 42 & 12 iirc while shooting over 50%. He was just a victim of circumstances. Trey Burke had game.
Excellent video! But I respectfully disagree with your take on how AI’s original play style wouldn’t work today. While advanced stats would probably still hate him, the floor is so open now. Defences would be leaving shooters pretty wide open if they tried to collapse the paint to take him outta the mix. Could easily see him dominating with his driving and penetration with either way less guarded lanes around the hoop or with a newfound plethora of passing options on the off chance a defence would rather isolate on his ability to create defensive breakdowns. Assuming there would roughly be a balance between the two for defences, I think pretty much all of AI’s numbers go up. And that’s assuming he doesn’t even bother working on his notoriously streaky long ball. He bumps that up to anything even touching 34-35% and I think we se some peak Harden numbers outta AI in todays game on a seasonal basis because nobody could keep up. Look at what Steph Curry did during his peak. Take away the shooting ability but add about 15x the speed to running off all those back cuts and low post screens while Bubba runs semi circles around the baseline and you’ve got a near unstoppable force on the court.
Trey Burke is More Marbury than Ivo. Iverson was fast as hell. Closest we’ve had to Iverson is JCraw. Ironically Mamba said we’re lucky Ivo wasn’t 6’5” when JC was right there but didn’t have the green light Ivo did.
Trey was underrated throughout his career. When you look at 2:15 you can see he got better every year. Especially when he was with the Knicks in 17-18 he had 13ppg, 5apg, and 2rpg (on under 22mpg) while shooting over 50% and 36% from 3. Those are all solid! Teams just didn’t value his size and that he was an unreliable defender largely due to that… sad to see
Bruh,DON'T EVER DISREPSPECT A.I LIKE THAT! BURKE ISN'T NOWHERE NEAR A.I's skill set........Iverson was selfish? Bruh,iverson was a killer and wanted to win....who tf was he gonna pass it to that was an offensive threat? No need to waste talent for the sake of "sharing"
I think maybe his appearance was similar to AI never his skills on the court. Besides physical similarities it’s nothing else there. The closest to Iverson who’s been on here before is Cat Barber.
Rose is probably the closest thing we've had to Iverson in that, despite a small frame, his explosiveness, speed, and endurance to continue punishing opponents was overwhelming. But AI was even more repelentless to attack, an even better scorer, and he was more shifty. I prefer Rose but gotta give Iverson his due for what made him such a unique talent.
My thinking is that Trey in comparison to AI’s raw athleticism there is no comparison. AI was a multi-sport talent and probably could’ve went to the NFL. I was a big Trey guy but he’s just not even in the realm of that type of athlete. Super skilled though.
Trey Burke with the Knicks they tried to put frank over him he was bouta become a little star Kevin KD gave him his props and went back an fourth with Kemba
@@zjones3853I mean it sounds like your just saying that because that’s Kyrie Godfather/ damn near the same height. Kyrie is the closest thing we have to A.I. it’s not just the crossover, it’s the finishing, the impact, the image. I’m not saying Kyrie is the spitting image of A.I but he’s the closest thing we have to him. I personally think Kyrie really just took what A.I had and became greater. A.I is my favorite player but people always disregard Kyrie and it makes no sense. I get the different eras and different rules but that’s another debate. I think A.I still is better because of his mind set and leadership role which i think is vital for a team to be successful. That’s really the only thing that Kyrie lacks/ people don’t like Kyrie because how he acts.
I've said this once and I'll say it again.... the NBA is QUANITY over QUALITY You said it best.... Trey Burke is a "dime-a-dozen" player QUANITY over QUALITY
I feel like everyone including Burke tried to force the comparisons. Like dude literally grew braids and wore a sleeve 😂 get real bro. He’s not even close to the player that AI was.
I would argue the Jazz completely screwed his development, as well as Dante Exum's. They drafted Burke, who finished 3rd in rookie of the year voting (in a historically weak year, mind you), averaging roughly 13 points and 5 assists to 2 turnovers. Not great, but not awful. Literally the next year they drafted Danted Exum and had them split starts. Completely screwed both of their development. Like if you've figured Burke isn't the guy after one season, fine. But then go all in on Exum. Don't stunt both of them.
Bruh.... Trey Burk is nice should be on a NBA roster.... but to compare him to ai is like comparing Roy Hibbert to Kareem.... there's a major difference in the heart and talent!!!!
I don't think people know/remember that the young AI was jumping out the gym. If someone is like AI and they're not jumping out the gym. Then they're not like AI. Just like Tatum and Booker are not like Kobe. Kobe was a Slamdunk Champion.
Halfway through the vid. He wasn’t as quick as I remembered. All that extra movement works everywhere except the nba. It’s the best league in the world. These players are way more efficient. They play smarter not harder. Tough pill for some but it’s just the truth about the college/pro play style translation.
no disrespect to trey ,but he isn't even close to physical level of a.i. A.i. was freak of nature, fastest first step maybe ever, but most importantly A.I. was tough as hell, he was attacking rim like he is 6'7. and that whats made ai different from other small guys who where limited to outside game ..ai didn't care if hes gonna get hurt, he was attacking rim whole game!!! and point about ai not beign successful today is BS...In todays game where you cant touch anyone..and everything is flagrant foul..mark my word A.I. . would avarage 35 easily on 45-50 % Mark my words !!! why ? its simple..rules today favour offensive players, especially guards ..ai was playing in era where avg team point where 90-100 and today its 110-120.. other big reasons is spacing and skillset in today game ..everyone shoot 3...that allow much better spacing in offense and that would allow a.i. to play 1on1 much more ...and good luck stoping a.i in 1on1 😂..ai wil just run-over 98% defenders in todays nba ...he was doing that in 2000s but there you where allowed to triple and double team him whole game long cause he didnt play with much talent and shooters in his teams and overall league was different...much tougher to score .. so yeah ,i don't agree with anything in this video , no hate but some things are just not right
In spite of the fact that Utah traded him and drafted Dante Exum after he went there i cant say it was Utah when D Mitch came in as a rookie and took thay team by storm with his play...Trey just wasnt that good in Utah if he was AI like he would cleared Exum or learned to play alongside him and he didnt i can agree that going to Utah stunted his growth but this idea that them drafting another guy and not believing in him is false if a team dont believe in you you work till that team either trades you or is forced to start you and Trey never got there
Allen Iverson is the reason there will never be another Allen Iverson. Allen did not work out to improve his game. Allen stayed in kinds of trouble in the off season instead. He hung out with the wrong crowds of ppl. Trey didn’t have any of that going on. Isaiah Thomas was on the MVP list at his size so you’re kind of off on this one.
Iverson 100% WOULD NOT work in today's nba. He was under 6'0 and had a shaky jumpshot, unless he was willing to change his game to be a primary passer like Chris Paul. He is not going to be an efficient scorer today
Until bro got the braids never watch him once and thought iverson he’s fallen victim to being the same build as ai and in todays game when now the shortest players on the floor is 6’4 you can see why it’d be easy to compare him to ai but not when we consider him the “pound for pound” greatest there’s no comparison in that.
Maybe he's just not as good as Iverson? Iverson would work in today's game bc he was really really good at basketball. Basketball isn't all that complicated. If you are good at it, your game will translate
Bron a "better" Magic, eh? Naw. LJ compared to Zion? Zion hasnt even played a full seasons worth of games in 3 years. Kobe was good on his own he just happened to steal all of MJ's moves and mannerisms and mentality down to a science. Luka better than Bird? Their games look similiar and they both white but they NOT the same. Bird woulda eaten Luka alive and been talking shit to him the entire time. The NBA will get back to small ball and the 3 will eventually not be the default shot at some point and then we'll see. Love the video so far though it's got me over here debating and I love that and miss that with the NBA.
JC... DON'T EVER DISRESPECT ERVIN "MAGIC" JOHNSON LIKE THAT AGAIN👌🏿! You Do Wonderful Work, But Where Is The Overhyped, Stat Padding, Insecure, Media Spin Artist Dude From Akron, Ohio Better Than #32 At Other Than Athleticism....I'LL WAIT!!!! Not A Better Floor General, Not A Better Passer, Not A Better Foul Shooter, Not A Better Clutch Player, Not A More Fierce Competitor...But "Better One Came Along" 😏🤣😭🤣😭🤣. You Better Stop Pandering To These Nick Wright And Shannon Sharpe Minions Before You Lose Your Credibility Out Here...SERIOUSLY 🤷🏿♂️🤣!
Stop it bro. Mad love but lebron isn’t anywhere near the passer magic was and he’s probably not even greater than him. I mean that clip you shown of that pass was a far far reach😂
😂😂😂😂 man if y’all don’t stop with this bullshit. He is nothing like Iverson. Iverson had one of a kind speed, quickness, athleticism….trey is average compared to other guards. Iverson was one of the best finishers of all time and had one of the top mid range and float games out there…..trey struggles to finish. And I’m not even going to bring up iverson non stop motor. Please stop with the Iverson comparisons. Just because he grew braids and look similar doesn’t mean they play alike
Iverson is sadly overrated. The style of pounding the air out of the ball on iso plays has never worked in the playoffs. That's why he has limited playoff success
Will there ever be another Iverson, possibly more effective? Trey Burke is still really good. Wish he had better opportunities in the league
I doubt there will be because of where the game is at. Statistics dominate the game and I don't see a team conforming to A.I's heavy inefficient volume of shots.
I feel like Ja and Westbrook are the closest we will get. They don't necessarily play like Ivo, but they relentlessly, fearlessly attack the rim and aren't afraid of any moment on the court.
I think of Kyrie as a 6'2 combination of Iverson and Kobe
No where NEAR the quickness or explosion.
YOU CANT IMITATE KOBE IS kobe Hater
He wasn't waived by the Knicks. He was traded to the Dallas Mavericks. He actually had some solid years with them. Trey can ball!
He did. Mavs my team. I think when they was playing the clippers those two straight years he actually was ballin I want to say he went for 30 one of those games or probably 20. But yeah trey burke legit seriously if Utah never thought exum was special trey burke would still be ballin for the jazz lol.

Facts Trey wasn't jumping out the gym like AI or the handles.

I think the whole "anything outside the NBA is considered a failure" 🤷🏾♀️🙃.....type mentality is probably why
he was playing for Capitanes de Ciudad de México, but had a season ending ankle injury in december.
The undersized combo guard is the most oversaturated player type in basketball. Its essentially the NFL running back in basketball.

Monta Ellis was somewhat an Iverson inspired player
Trey Burke does not have nearly the athleticism or explosiveness of Allen iverson that’s the major difference

The most important thing that people fail to realize is exactly what you said. Opportunity and timing!

So Ja Mira T don’t exist anymore? Lmfaooo Trey Burke was never close to AI, he didn’t have the athleticism. But Ja? Lol
He doesn't remind me of Iverson there game is not the same 😮
Stop it bro. Mad love but lebron isn’t anywhere near the passer magic was and he’s probably not even greater than him. I mean that clip you shown of that pass was a far far reach😂
Bad comparison Iverson was way more athletic and explosive than trey Burke
Let me debunk all of this… TREY BURKS ISNT ALLEN IVERSON
You can compare kyrie to iverson
Athleticism ... AI was a freak athlete. Trey Burke was average for nba standards
😂😂😂😂 man if y’all don’t stop with this bullshit. He is nothing like Iverson. Iverson had one of a kind speed, quickness, athleticism….trey is average compared to other guards. Iverson was one of the best finishers of all time and had one of the top mid range and float games out there…..trey struggles to finish. And I’m not even going to bring up iverson non stop motor. Please stop with the Iverson comparisons. Just because he grew braids and look similar doesn’t mean they play alike
🤣🤣 bro I swear I said the same thing. Just because he got braids and a few tats they calling this nigga A.I💀💀💀
@@dangelopinkett8302 right lmao they need to cut that shit out
Who ever started this iverson comparison needs to really watch overdone highlights 😂 burk? Foh
JA MORANT
No
Iverson is sadly overrated. The style of pounding the air out of the ball on iso plays has never worked in the playoffs. That's why he has limited playoff success
Iverson was an inefficient chucker. Would be benched in modern NBA. Over-rated
He had the game just wasn’t athletic at all 🥴
