With a defensive rating of 109 and the Jazz better defensively with him off the floor with their two best units? They were much better with Trey in their top starting 5 defensive rotation than with Exum. It's too bad 82games.com deletes stats every year so I couldn't throw them up one more time.

FWIW, the excitement is palpable in Houston over the Clowney. Looks like hes finally recovered from microfracture. Gives me a little bit of hope for Dante!

You guys ignoring the fact that he is soft. He is fast yet very rarely drives in the paint and if he does he ends up knocked on the *** due to being so weak. He is mentally weak and is afraid of contact. Now coming of the major surgery he will be even more scared of contact. Even his speed is way overrated. Randy Foy had better sprint numbers than him for example. G. Hill was faster and stronger than him in combine and neither is elite athlete, so I laugh when Exum is called elite by delusional fans. Elite should be reserved to people like Westbrook, James, Ibaka, Rose ( before injury), Wall, Byombo and maybe few more. Exum is not elite athlete. Stop it.

Exum's agility numbers at the combine were identical to Westbrook, Rose, and Wall's though right?

Good agility result in combine does not make you elite athlete. Tells mostly about lateral quickness. His sprint and vertical was worse then George Hill and Randy Foe for example.

Vertical not surprising.

Sprint, very surprising. My guess is that it is not representative (bad event). He seems like a blur out there when in high gear. Very good acceleration/ quickness.

It takes more time for people with long limbs to accelerate. That's why Bolt usually starts slow but beats everybody after 50 meters. I think in combine they do 30 meter sprint ( full court length)...that puts long limbed players at disadvantage. I would prefer them to do 60 meters at least... but I guess basketball court is shorter so they don't bother.
