Dante scores 28 pts on 11-13(4-4 3pt) in 24 min

Exum out tonight illness. Last game must of been an out of body experience so much he came down sick lol
I think you meant to say that he had an in-body experience and has now returned to his status quo of out-of-body living.

The spirit liveth but the body is ded.
 
I was arguing when he was healthy he played and was given every opportunity to get better, then you said look at all the games where he played 2-10 minutes. I showed you that only once did he play less than ten minutes. I’m not sure wtf your talking about.

You have me confused with another poster.
I am not denying he wasn't given many opportunties to play in his rookie year. But he was not given a green light to develop his point guard play. Hayward and Quin wouldn't allow that.

Anyway, he gone now....
 
Donovan's first 28 point game was his 8th game into his rookie season. A WIN over the Blazers. This is Dante's 6th season, and his first 28 point game - good for him, I hope he can stay healthy and have an NBA career. Just bear in mind, it's one game, and putting up good numbers on a bad team is pretty meaningless. Trey Burke had 42 points in a game for the Knicks in 2018. I was genuinely happy for Trey, and I'm happy for Dante about having a good game too.

Almost definitely wouldn't have been on 13 shots :)

hayward: Hey coach, this Exum could be pretty good in a couple years, we need to silence him now!! It’s what’s best for the team.

Quin: hmmmm..... ya, your on to something there G... it is best for the team, all we need is you.

Ya, that does sound ridiculous. I’m done with fan boys and this thread. Don’t bother quoting this post, I won’t respond. In Quin I trust.

Yes, the guy with a career 40.8% FG% scores 26 on 13 shots lets snicker that the guy scoring much higher volumes on much better efficiency wouldn't do it.

But, sure, let's play along: 40 points on 19 shots.

The opposite.
They both thought he was ****. Especially Hayward. Never ever thought he could be good.

How many times in his career did Quin allow Dante to shoot 13 times?
Who cares anyway mate. You got what you wanted.
Jazz got what they wanted.
 
The Jazz went above and beyond in giving Dante chances to succeed. They were very patient. Too bad it didn't work out.

Especially this year.
Dante got at least 50 minutes of non-garbage time. Quin was pretty generous.
Especially given how well the Jazz were travelling a month back.
