Exum's Second NBA Game

[Litany]

So you'd support trading Favors, Exum, and our unprotected pick next season (likely top-10, with the chance of being in the lottery) for Wiggins? Because that was allegedly the counter offer from Cleveland after they rejected Favors, the #5 and #23. I realize Wiggins, Parker and Embiid were considered Tier-1 prospects, but Exum has to be Tier 1.5. He has ELITE size and speed. Not just good...ELITE!

Is he raw? Yes. So were Kobe, Garnett and McGrady coming out of HS. WE have to realize Dante isn't even a 1-and-done prospect. Yes, that puts him a year behind the other prospects born in 1995. I'm ok with that. There are questions with all three of the top prospects: Parker isn't even being projected as a SF anymore due to his weight. So now he's a short PF. Wiggins? Limited range. Embiid? Health. WE didn't have to give up ANYTHING to get Exum, nor take back a contract (like Jack at $6M+). Getting Exum at #5 was an absolute STEAL!

Wasn't Exum in tier 1 according to that one article ranking all of em?

Woohoo, we need more role players. Can't ever have enough of those.


I am incredibly disappointed we didn't try harder to move up. It is getting old having so many B level players, and adding another B+ level player does nothing to raise the excitement level. It's gonna be hard being a JF for the next few years.

Sarcasm?

Pretty good article about Dante!

Fantastic article. A must read for future Exum fans. That said, I don't care who you've played against or what kind of training you've had. Unless, you've played against American black kids you haven't played against anyone. Period.

It will take exum AT LEAST 2 years to be as good as prime jordan imo.... probably even longer than 2 years

Everything you did there...I saw it all.

What the hell are you talking about?

99 percent of jazzfanz is acting like exum is a guaranteed superstar and hall of famer and we know hardly any thing about him.
If anything we are all being too optimistic about him.

Seriously. In terms of Jazzfanz being in agreement, Exum might be the most popular draft pick in Jazz/jazzfanz history.

Slow and reasonable is my approach. A modicum of restraint is great when it comes to draftees.
