Summer 2015: FIBA games of Utah Jazz players

Exum's defense is good, when he fills out he will be a shut down defender at the 1-3 and probably be able to guard stretch 4s okay.
 
Biased perspective, naturally, but Exum looks like the best player on the floor. Whenever he touches the ball something good happens and his defense is strong. Main issue right now is the Boomers aren't getting him involved as much, and when he isn't the one making decisions someone else on the Boomers turns it over.
 
I'm glad Motum is having a good game. The guy's shooting %ages are always so ****ing high.

He had a good pre-season last year, but a pretty garbage summer league this year. If he can wrap-up a good tourney performance and play well for our team in the preseason, mabe he'll get that final roster spot ahead of Cooley (which I'm fine with). Shooting over defense, pls. Especially at the big positions. We have Gobert and Fav, which is enough defense IMO. Pleiss should be fine as well.
 
Really doesn't make sense why they didn't play Exum significantly more and why, when they did, they had him off-ball at the 2. Almost all of his touches ended with something good happening.
 
Is the game over?
Who won?
What were the statlines for Exum and motum?
 
Wonder if his ankle was bugging him when he came out of the game in the third he did sprain it again and thats why he didnt go back in. Or maybe he had minute restrictions per Jazz.

Good scoring numbers and shooting percentage for Brock. He rebounded like a girl though.

Yeah, I don't know why they are icing Exum out. Morons.

You'll see in the Eurobasket tournament, that almost every ballhandler can shoot 3s on the move. So Lithuania just uses the games to practices hedging here. Especially since Exum is probably one of the fastest players in the world, it's good practice to get the timing and recovery right.

In a tournament match they'd go under until he shoots 40%+
That's also a reason why Exum is not their primary ballhandler yet. FIBA rules don't allow you to cheat on the first step and thus it'll be much harder to beat guards going under off the dribble or getting around a switching big back in the lane.

Are you sure he resprained it? It looked to me like he just took his shoe off, readjusted the brace that had slipped, and then laced up again with no noticeable pain whatsoever.

Cotton's.


Exum/Burke/Neto
Burks/Hood/Millsap
Hayward/Ingles/
Favors/Booker/Lyles
Gobert/Pleiss/Motum

That's 14. I doubt we roll 15 deep when the season starts. That 14th spot will either be a 4th backup (Cotton), another wing for shooting and defense (Johnson), or another backup for Pleiss and Rudy (Cooley or Motum).

Mouth couldnt defend or rebound worth **** though, plus he's getting quite a bit of overseas interest. I would only hang onto Cotton if the FO they intended to cut ties with Burke asap (which I don't think they should).

Good list. I think Johnson will get a spot. I agree with you, I doubt the Jazz fill out a 15 man roster. DL seems to like flexibility.

I agree about the Cotton/Burke thing too.
