Actually I think Andy Bailey did some of this stuff on his twitter recently and Stockton was regularly in the top 5-10 during his prime. He was truly one of the elite players in the league by advanced statistics. It's just that people didn't use or understand them back then. I believe he was #4...

These guys are mostly all criticized for their inefficiency, though. Donovan not being more efficient is the main reason he hasn't taken the leap into top 20 player so far, and a big reason the Jazz aren't a real contender. People were saying that he's the next Tyreke Evans before his play...

Unfortunately for him he'll always be in this situation because he's not quite good enough to be a core piece. It sucks but his game is kind of flawed/inconsistent.

It did hurt him, but then Quin did a 180 and started playing him and using him correctly for the first time in his coaching tenure. It was insane and I'm still a little bit shocked that he did it.

I don't think the Jazz are planning to re-sign him.

played with the ball in his hands for the first prolonged stretch of his career?

I don't know about this. Exum was playing better in December for sure but it wasn't a really long sample. I wouldn't be surprised if dante was every bit as effective as Rubio in that starting lineup. It also wouldn't surprise me if Rubio was better, but I just don't think there is a big...

He played great in his last stretch. He played better than Rubio. We all know Quin isn't going to start him this year no matter what he does. You simply can't impact a game as much and put up huge numbers when you play 15-18 minutes per game. I actually am fine with him coming off the bench...

After watching both this season that is a crazy hot take. Exum has shown so much more. Allen can barely stay on the court.

Wow I was away for a while here and we are arguing Arroyo vs Exum now? LMAO.

I want a PF but I'm honestly a little bit worried about what we do if Favors isn't there to play backup C. I'm just not sure I trust rolling with Udoh for 18 minutes a night or whatever it will be.

It's also crazy to me that you (edit: not you personally, but somebody in general) can watch our current play and not notice the horrific bench lineups that are hemorrhaging points and look totally disorganized out there. This team badly needs Dante and Thabo back to get that unit back to a...

I'm sure you'll craft that narrative into whatever he does. The reality is that he was killing it the last month and definitely turned a corner when given the responsibility with the ball in his hands. If he comes back and Quin stops letting him run PnR he won't be as effective because his...

The only way the Pels move Jrue is if they are blowing everything up because AD says he's out. Much more likely to happen in the offseason, I think.

I really like this point. This is the exact problem with Ricky/Donovan. The reason I like Dante more (even though he's not a great shooter either) is that he is probably the best Jazz player at breaking the paint consistently in PnR. He's a threat that has to be accounted for, and collapses the...
