Chad Ford: Exum > Burke right now; rookie player that's most positively surprising

So what's the jam?

This team isn't making the playoffs. Trey knows what he's doing out there, he just isn't hitting shots. Keep bringing along Dante at a reasonable pace. He still has a lot of little things to work on.

This, this, this.

There is absolutely no need to put Exum in the starting lineup. None at all.

Having Trey come off the bench now also significantly reduces his tradable value... we have to weigh as well the following:


Developing our assets VS Winning now
 
Damn it, at half time of this Detroit game the ball moves much better with Exum on the floor compared to Burke it's not even close.


It pains me to say this but I think Burke actually digressed from last year.
 
I took it easy on Trey last year, cuz he was a rookie, and because i made my stance pretty clear on what i thought of his skillset / athleticism / shot selection and defense before he was ever on the Jazz, in the 2013 Draftee''s thread.

For those who dont remember, I made a big stink about Trey... I never bought that he was a Lottery Grade player, at any point in time. I felt it was rather obvious he was being overrated due to awards and having the limelight (a la JJ Reddick/Adam Morrison).

Posters wanted to compare him to the other draftable PG's that year, but i was asking the question - how does he stack up against the PG's already in the league? I thought the answer was not very well, his ceiling looked LOW to me.

I said he was fringe-lottery talent and graded him an 89/100, didn't think he had all-star potential. I hope he proves me wrong, and does great, seriously, I just wouldnt bet on it.

You type a lot.

Yeah, except, Jazz are winning it all this year. I know this cuz I just witnessed them win a game that was close and exciting. I'm pumped.

Haha, yo, so many people i meet have absolutely nothing interesting to say, **** that, Ill ramble on, this is me, I dont hide, I could give a **** less about appearances, or what you think. Ignore options are available.

teaching myself to read at 500wpm as a teenager was probably a bad idea tbh, Id never recommend that for anyone who wants to appear normal. I type these messages while looking at several other screens... I told yall a long time ago you'd have to be stark raving mad to be able to multi-task like me, A sane person would never be able to pull it off.

You sound so amazing.
 
It doesn't do Exum justice to compare to him Burke right now. Everybody is better than Burke right now. JLIII, wherever he is, might be better than Burke right now. Exum has been legitimately good at the point, especially for a rookie with so little experience.

Typically not caring about what someone thinks is met with a different response.
