Dante Exum Over Smart: Massive Failure

Just like all of those times in my 20s when I was ‘doing totally fine... I just like selling all that plasma’.
There just wasn't anything else you could find that you liked.
 
But we got to reinvest that into the program. And now it can be used as a hedge against COVID. Or something.
Nah it would be... "and those funds were used to pay DM's... so anytime you can get a megastar in the second round that's a good thing"
 
It doesn't take much of a hindsight to see what a horrendous business it was when DL resign him to a 3 year fully guaranteed contract knowing his history of injury.


Dante came back in that 2017/18 season and played well. It was probably the second round of the playoffs against Houston that clinched the deal for him where he was efficient and played tough defense on Harden. It was the strongest Exum had ever looked and plenty of Jazz fans were feeling at least a little giddiness.
 
Agreed, but this is American pro sports way of doing things. It happens regularly in every sport. It’s just how business seems to work. If you don’t expect it you are ignorant to the truth.
I bet the Trailblazers wish they would’ve been more patient with Jermaine O’Neal. I think he was in Portland for 4+ years they got rid of him and he took off.

there are plenty of teams that quickly make decisions on guys.

He couldn't get playing time because they were stacked. When he did he was good. Exum got plenty of opportunity and sucked... the injuries were a big issue obvi.

Wasn’t always the case. He looked real good coming back from his second major injury. I’m pretty sure it was that performance that got him paid.
