Start Dante for Rubio

I don't see why you instead of staying on subject and presenting arguments for one or the other cause reverse to name calling. But yeah, you suck as a man as you have no dignity to admit when you are wrong.

In his defense, you called him a coward.

How do you call a person who claims that you are lying and yet when presented with evidence does not apologize or even admit that he was wrong?
Plus he called me first. At least I have facts. He only has his opinion.
 
Rubio's inconsistent play has opened the door for Exum to get more minutes, but it's up to Exum to win the starting job. Rubio is the more proven player. Prior to the past week, Exum's shooting, turnovers and lack of defensive awareness have kept him from seizing a bigger opportunity. Lets see if how Exum does in the next 5 games.

It’s easy. Best overal athlete on the Jazz by mile is Donovan and nobody is even close. Second is Royce, then Crowder, then Rudy, and finally Thabo ( he is a bit limited coming of knee surgery but lately I can see him regaining his speed and strength). While I would say Dante is either 2d or 3d fastest on our roster he is at the bottom in strength and endurance and is somewhere in the middle of explosiveness, thus overal rating in athleticism puts him right in the middle at nr.6.

LMAO. Dante is the fastest guy on the team. Donovan is a little bit quicker in short spaces and is more coordinated/compact in his movements. Neither guy can explode off one foot with the edge there probably going to Dante who can get up a little bit better. Donovan really can barely elevate at all off one foot and it's a major issue for him finishing (although he's pretty crafty and makes up for it). Off of two feet Donovan can get really high and Dante is just average. I understand this as I am also a 2 foot jumper who can dunk pretty easily that way, but not off one foot. I think a lot of people here (edit: those who think Dante isn't the fastest guy on the team) don't understand how much ground Dante is covering with his long strides and so think that Donovan's shorter strides are getting him there faster. It's just not the case. Dante in top gear is one of the fastest players in the league with the ball. He just flows past players when he is in top gear. It reminds me of watching Usain Bolt run by guys while he looks like he's jogging. Obviously Ex isn't near that level of speed.

Thabo is not even remotely in Dante's league athletically at this point in his career. Royce is not as fast as Dante, but is a decent jumper and is stronger, Crowder is not a leaper at all, and is nowhere near Dante's speed. I'd put their vertical athleticism on par. Jae is stronger, Dante is longer.

LMAO. This is just new level of bias.
 
Can't wait for Dante's next string of bad games (it's happening and you know it). I need to stock up on the popcorn. :D

All of this is 100% accurate.

I have the fact that you're an idiot.

A big dumb idiot. Like when you said Jonas would get more minutes this year under Nurse and I told you the facts.
