Cross over is filth nasty. Best clip is at the :14 second mark. Screenshot anyone?

Here I was about to get you a screen shot until I realized what it was. Now that is funny.

If we want a top end comparison for Burton, I see some James Harden in his game. Big, physical left-handed wing players but also skilled and possessing strong basketball IQ's with their ability to find open teammates. Think he has a real chance to start from day one here.

Funny you mention Harden - I see DJO as a slightly smaller although no less strong version of Harden - love to watch him play. Although I'm rooting for the Heat, it is hard, real hard not to like the Thunder.

If Wade wasn't on the Heat I'd be rooting for the Thunder. Really like Durant.

I knew Burton could skywalk, dunk, shoot and block shots. However, I am most impressed with his passing skills in the video above.

Some Burton dunks to start off the weekend...

FFW to 1:14
Burton jumps over 6'8 guy at 1:18

Kind of disappointing to see him down at 55 on the new Rivals, not sure why... seems like he's been killing it everywhere he goes.

High ratings are nice, and I'm sure at some level they do attract other recruits to consider MU, but I don't think Jimmy Butler was in the top 50 in Texas and he turned out ok.

I'd still like to see Burton and Wilson get a higher rating based on how well both have been playing. Just wait until Buzz and his staff get a chance to work with them.
