Dante Exum- I think the Clippers announcer said it best last night: "Wow, This kid is the real deal." His speed and 1st step are elite. I keep hearing people say they don't see the elite 1st step. I think you have to be blind not to see it. When he gets an NBA body and some experience with how to finish in the paint, he's gonna be unreal, especially if he keeps shooting that 3 well. The thing that has impressed me most about Exum is how he sort of got punked but Paul the 1st time around, but he was able to come out and go toe to toe with Paul for like 6 minutes last night and he seemed un-phased. He also did not turn the ball over.
Quin Snyder- He's so much better than Corbin at coaching that I feel bad for Corbin. What was KOC thinking?? Would Corbin still be the coach if KOC was still GM and there was no Lindsey influence? The play that was run out of the timeout where Favors caught the pass down low and then zipped it to Gobert for an easy dunk was awesome. Schematically, Quin is sharp. He's sharp out of time outs and he seems like an elite communicator and teacher. I really like Quin. Also, just a side note, Quin is the same age as Pop when pop took over the reins for the Spurs. Sure hope he has a tenure in the same stratosphere as GP (haha obviously not Gary Payton).
Trevor Booker- I was a bit unsure as to how I felt about Booker when we signed him. At this point, I am unequivocally planted on the Booker Bandwagon. He's Tough. He plays tough, and that is what this team needs! I think At this point Rudy and Booker are the toughest players on the team. Maybe throw Dante Jones in there if he makes the team. Anyone disagree? And I don't think Booker's foul on Griffin was a cheap shot like he suggested. I just think it was a hard foul. I loved the play. I think that plays like that will help form the team's identity. It was good stuff.
Derrick Favors- I love you, D-Favs. You have worked on that offensive game, you are playing tough, your block on Deandre Jordan was epic , and I think you are going to have a big year.
Clippers Announcers- haha. They are way better than the Lakers Announcers and they had some good lines last night. My favorite came when toward the end of the game the color commentator said in a tone of confusion, "Are the Jazz for real??" haha. They are also Exum believers now too.
Gordon Hayward- Dudes, please stop saying negative things about Hayward. Hottie Nickkk, Hayward is a good dude. I'd encourage you not to accuse him of being a selfish son of a ***** anymore. I don't think that's fair. And people that think he's overpaid, he won't be as the salary cap rises and he's pretty damn good. Loved his stat line last night and Quin's offense is gonna facilitate higher efficiency. Good Showing Gordon.
Rudy!- He's tough. He plays with a little nastiness and you can tell he is not scared of anyone on the court. I like that. We need that. But he's also pretty damn good. Loved the assist he had to Gordon the other night.
Alec Burks- Miss you man.
Trey Burke- He's on track to surpassing my expectations. Love the finishes in the paint he's added to his game. That floater is gonna help him quite a bit. Keep getting to the Charity Stirke!
Hood- 6 fouls in 10 minutes was perplexing but I am a hood believer. I think he can play.
Kanter- Honestly, I like Kanter, but I think this is the beginning of the end as it pertains to his tenure as a Jazzman.
