I vote Burke. I was doing other stuff while watching the game and was not aware he was 1 for 11 at one point from the floor. That is rough. But his defense really made Curry work for his shots and gave him very little opportunity to get going. Steph still scored, but Burke's defense was great. He good play also allowed us to get back into our normal guard rotation of having Brunson and Hardaway come off the bench.
I never thought of Burke as a good defender, but he really answered the bell last night. I wonder if he gets more chances down the stretch against the better lead guards in the league? For instance, does he get good minutes when we play Cleveland twice or Morant one more time?
