For stoked GAME THREAD!!

I think more than anything Exum just looks tentative and it leads to a lot of his TOs right now. Cy is right in that he needs to attack the rim and play with more purpose. On the plus side, his jumper at least when he's set is not terrible. Decent defender and will be elite when he gains a little muscle and gets better feel for pump fakes and stuff.

Exum never goes hard to the rim, that is partly why he doesn't get calls. He just takes contact and kind of looks whiney about it instead of just using his speed to get to the rim and force some legit contact.

Does this comment mean that you are now seeing his speed? I agree with what you are saying, BTW. I am not even slightly surprised that he has a ton of learning to do.

Exum looks so rattled.

I had him pegged of having high bust potential. I really hope it isn't true. What a waste it will be if he busts.

I'm not saying he is a bust, he just needs a lot of work.

A lot of work indeed.

I am surprised at how good he can shoot 3's though.
 
So...Favors with another good game. Trey, Rodney, Gobert and Booker also came to play.

3 of those are Bigs not named Kanter. Would it surprise anyone if Booker and Gobert end up having more of a positive impact in their minutes than Kanter this season?

I would not be. Kanter still seems so raw. One would figure that he'd know what he's doing by now. Still have high hopes for him tho. At this point he seems on par with Koufos, sadly.

I never said he wasn't fast....

I just don't see elite speed. Elite speed is Derrick Rose, Ty Lawson, John Wall and Russel Westbrook. If we want to consider Exum a PG and have him defend PG's, I'm not even sure he is in the top 15 of speed at the PG position.

He should watch some Fesenko tapes and learn how to suck the correct way. At least Fes knew/acted like he knew he sucked.
