Exum Update

[fishonjazz]

Thought Exum had a solid game. Was he rusty? Sure. But he also drove to the hoop when he could and flashed explosive speed. He can definitely exploit matchups against opposing subs. And he looked pretty solid defensively.

Agreed

inb4 kobe comparison. some people thought he would be the second coming of kobe bryant.

Nah, no reason to compare our guys to Lakers trash.

Dante answered some questions via Twitter.
Thinking he'll be asked about 'serious stuff' enough already, I asked about Joe's twins, he says he likes the boy more: Jacob is a gangster!




this is Jacob

Rubio has a contusion on his leg..he's questionable tomorrow night https://twitter.com/Jimmygslc1/status/974793313592033280 …

Exum ....already going to get more minutes ?......He did score pretty easily ,lets see how much wind he has .

Had Exum finished the one under the rim and not be called for a charge and instead was an and 1, he was looking at 16 points in those 10-12mins.

No, Dante is willing to pass.

Crazy as it seems ...Does Exum START in tonight's game if Rubio is held out as a precaution for his knee.

I'll be watching how fast him and DM get up the court. This could be the start of what will make the Jazz very dangerous to opposing teams if these two click together ...Excited to watch them.

@tribjazz - Starting lineup tomorrow night starting to look like Dante might make his first start?

Yep, that's crazy. Mitchell becomes starting PG, someone else slots in at SG, probably O'Neale in site of his slump, like last time Ricky missed time. Otherwise Crowder at the 3, Ingles at the 2. Wouldn't expect Exum's minutes to suddenly leap in only his second game back, although an uptick wouldn't be a surprise.

Lol, looks like this Dante stan just creamed himself in his pants. Did you even watched the games while Exum was out ?

Cool pod, good insight and some good humour.
