What's new

July 14 SL Exum vs Parker 8:30 MT

How did Jabari do? Power went out 5 min before so I don't get to watch. Prolly why it was such a great game :(
 
So about this Quin Snyder system...players flying all over the place, quick passes, quick screens, everybody moving, lots of dunks, lots of threes, the defense never knowing where the shot or pass is coming from.

Kjzz keeps flashing pictures of Jerry sitting next to Quin, I love Jerry and can't keep from wondering what is going through his mind as he watches Quinsanity.
Quinsanity. I like that. Somehow need to get the announcers to tag that as their own and I think it'll stick.
 
Hood's lookin' good! Exum was really tentative and conservative. To begin the game, his penetration would create a solid shot every time. He stopped doing this and looked nervous. He does not stop the ball and he has great BBIQ, but I want to see some aggression out of him. Gobert absolutely impacts nearly every shot in the paint. I don't see how he won't get minutes this year; he's a beast!
 
He couldn't even dominate Delonte West or JJ Barea.

Methinks Hayward would be dominating in the bricklaying
Barea and west would dominate this summer.league too
 
why are you so mad right now?

Because it's obvious that Hood, Exum, and Burks can all play. Yet, they won't be able to play as much as they should because we have Mr Max.

Think about it. Is Hayward even our 3rd best SG/SF right now?

Burks was better last year.
Exum? Loads of potential?
Hood? Unlike Hayward, can make shots.

So at best, Hayward is better than Exum but not as good as Burks and Hood. At worst, he's our 4th best SG/SF
 
4 years people. this is not AK

Did you read my post? 4 years... 6 years... It doesn't matter because the jazz were title contenders the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th year of AK's MAX!! They weren't contenders during his 5th and 6th so it wouldn't have mattered if his contract was for 4 years or 8 years. The point is that during his 2nd, 3rd, and 4th year, the jazz were hamstrung financially due to his contract. So yes, it could be EXACTLY like AK which is the point.
 
Hayward has shot 36% from 3 for his career.

Yes, he struggled shooting last year. No, 36% is not great, but it is certainly not bad.

Insinuating that Hayward cannot shoot is just not factual. That is all.
 
At this point, Exum can only play about a half of basketball before running out of gas. I'm sure a lot of it has to do with not playing 5 on 5 for a bit, but his conditioning has been poor.

Is his motor a concern? Not yet.

I wouldn't worry much about tentativeness from Exum. He was aggressive when he needed to be in order to get the Jazz going. The offense was really flowing and they didn't need to rely on him to playmake much the rest of the game. Multiple guys could make plays tonight.

Jabari is slow
