Unrealistic Expectations

[Stifle Tower]

Here we go again with summer league next week and the season of UPTIMISM, when every team can win a championship and every rookie is going to be a future all-star.

So let's put down some guesses.

How many games into summer league before someone says, "we should have drafted player X instead of Exum?"
How many games into the season before someone claims Exum is a bust?
When will the first "fire Lindsey" thread appear?
How many games does Snyder get before the "wish we had gone with anyone else, even Boylen" post get made?

Nahhh Exum gunna go for 20 pts, 9 assists, 4 rebounds, 3 blocks, 3 steals. and err body gunna asking why they didn't draft him.

 

[Fishsticks]

I'm optimistic. Think exum and hood are going to be real good in SL and other teams will be saying they should not have passed on our guys for once.

 

[fallenchicken]

If Exum doesn't get 20 pts, 9 assists, 4 rebounds, 3 blocks, 3 steals in his first game, that's when.

****in token Irish and African voices in the world cup commentary...

I'm voting "after the open scrimmage".

How many games into the season before someone claims Exum is a bust?

0, He'll be declared a bust by July 14.

When will the first "fire Lindsey" thread appear?

August 3

How many games does Snyder get before the "wish we had gone with anyone else, even Boylen" post get made?

. November 16. Should be about 9 games.

Hopefully everyone on this board realizes that we just drafted a high school kid. Gonna have to give him a few years. I'm watching summer league because its fun, I always do, and there might be some good highlights. Everything else... well, its SL!

Yeah guys.

Realistic: The Jazz will be entertaining to watch this year.
Unrealistic: Core4 leaves the forum.

Why would he leave? He is a neato poster for my taste.

Did you Exum throw out the first pitch at the Bees game?

Would Julius Randle throw like that?

 

[Duck Rodgers]

If he just shows some of his blow by ability, I'd be happy for now.

The one comment on that thing nails it:

Looks like Utah's QB

That's alright though. You don't become Clayton Kershaw overnight. By the time Exum is an NBA all-star, he'll breeze that baby over the plate.

 

[Stifle Tower]

Yeah guys.

Pay me $14.5M and I'll go to Cleveland (or Dallas or Charlotte). .

Must be some kind of cricket pitch.

Love me or hate me I have been right about every Jazz first roud pick for years. With Exum I can not give you an answer. Have not seen enough of him.

I don't hate you. It's just that sometimes you push your effort to step on a few calluses too much.

Which Jazz picks did you say were good?
