No lol. Totally different players with totally different strengths. JT's biggest strength is literally Burton's biggest weakness :tearsofjoy:
Kicking game?? Or the show and go? Burto has a good show and go though

Yet when I said there are similarities to Thurston when he first came to the floor people denied... They will keep denying rather slowy more and more will understand.
Totally different players and positions no comparison.

The thing that always sticks out with Burto is some of the skill and intuition he shows. There were several moments last season where he made a ridiculous play, like he was mucking around in the backyard. That’s the sign of a guy with massive potential. One play that comes to mind is when he was on the end of a break, and passed or knocked the ball over his left shoulder like it was nothing, setting up JAC to score. He has that X factor natural ability that is as rare as rocking horse shit. Then you add one of the most ludicrous boots in the game and good footwork and general ball playing ability, and it’s going to be enjoyable watching him in our jersey for the next few years.

I honestly haven’t seen the sort of stuff he can do before. Turvey, Johns, Lewis, Baa etc all had skill and other great qualities, but Burto just seems to make the ridiculous look normal.
Go to 3min25s of this clip and it’s exactly what you’re talking about.
