Hey guys-

I think we forgot about him. I kinda did. Exum will struggle this year and that should be expected, but I am really amped to see him grow. That said, I believe it is a forgone conclusion our best rookie will be hood. I can see him getting 20 minutes a game and 2nd team All rookie. Anyways I'm off to amsterdam for 3 days. Hold it down for me as I know I will be missed. Thanks guys!

I haven't forgotten him. He's going to be key. TBH, I'm more excited to watch the probable subs than the starting five. Exum can run and penetrate and either throw it up for Gobert near the rim, Booker for a midrange jumper or Hood for 3 (or Novak). Depending on what happens with Alec next summer, Hood could potentially be the starting SF in '15/'16. Just like Gobert, I think Hood is going to be the best player drafted in the 20's. He was a steal where the Jazz got him.
 
Good call OP. Best looking jumpshot in the nba. Cant wait to see him this year and cant believe we only have to wait 4 weeks!
 
He's probably one of the players I'm most excited to watch. He'll be streaky at some times, but I really liked what he showed at SL. He's not just a shooter, he can dish a little, has the tools to defend, etc. Such a steal.
 
Been getting props from people on my Utah Jazz shirt this year. People start talking to me about Hood and Bost.
 
I appreciate him a lot and I did not forget about him at all. I'm looking forward to watch him become whatever he will.
 
What will be awesome about following Hood this year, is that there'll be no expectations for him really. Exum will constantly feel the stress of being a top 5 pick, whereas we just kinda want Hood two give us solid two-way rotation minutes. Everything else is gravy.
