A bench lineup so far of Exum/Burks/Johnson/Lyles/Withey

If Lyles and Exum turn the corner and start showing us their game this could be a deadly 2nd unit.

That second unit has 3 40%+ three point shooters on it. hopefully Exum can drive and kick. . .
 
In 24 games with Miami last year playing 32 MPG

13.4/2.8/3.6 on 52/42/77 shooting.
 
Both Hill and JJ are very clutch. Our record last year was not in line with our point differential mainly because we could not close out games. This is a great signing addressing this very issue and effectively making us a top5 team in the west.
 
So where are we with the roster. I haven't had time to follow cap space this year. Is DL done, or can we still sign moar vets?
 
JJ was REALLY good coming off the bench for Miami last season. Hopefully he can give us the same production.


EDIT: Damnit wrong picture

If Johnson can do what he did in Miami, it wouldn't shock me if he started. 52% FG, 42% 3pt%, 13 pts/game. Let him start, play 25 mins a night. Have Hood command the bench unit and play 30 mins a night.

Johnson could come in and spread the floor and open it up. You'd have Hill, Johnson, Hayward, Favors, Gobert. Johnson would give Favors and Gobert a lot more room in the paint.

I don't like a lot of things, but I like this.
 
There is no way this is bad.
This isn't Ty Corbin coaching people. Naysayers relax.
A complete scorer, but one that can shoot...well....
Score one for the Jazz...This opens up many options next year in lineups. I like it..
Are we pre programmed to get excited over a middle of the road aging vet? YES, obviously we are, It's the Jazz...but this is one that can pay off actually. Not a reach and at a good price..well done. So far....
 
He didnt look very good in NJ, but last year was decent when he left.

We need a few sprinkled vets with this line up, and we got em.
