KCP isn't that better player.
Right, but he's a free agent at the end of the season, then the money can be used on other players.

How do you know someone has "too much pride"? How could you know that unless you're spouting out your own feelings.KCP won't play over Korver or O'Neale probably. For our development, should he play over Grayson? So we pretty much immediately say the Exum signing was a failure and trade him for an expiring. And we say the Grayson pick was a failure too if expiring KCP gets what should be his minutes.
This isn't going to happen. DL has too much pride to admit failures that quickly.

Of course I speculate. We all do here. But saying DL dumping Exum for an expiring is a "win" is simply ridiculous. DL would see it as a big failure on every level.How do you know someone has "too much pride"? How could you know that unless you're spouting out your own feelings.

I don't think Quin and DL have had enough of Exum after less than 2 months that they are trading for an expiring after just signing him. Tony Jones agrees:I would hope like hell he does not value sunk costs like you are suggesting. If you get out of a gamble you make that looks bad without much collateral damage that isn't failure. May not be a win, but it is as they say "cutting your losses". The win loss has already been somewhat determined.
The best thing that can happen is a huge fast success... the worst thing is a slow failure. The ********* part of drafting Exum is that he didn't fail fast.

If you weren’t willing to work through Dante’s mistakes then you should not have signed him to the extension. If Quin and DL weren’t on the same page on this that is an organization failure. I’m not saying DL gets to decide the rotation but I’d think 12 minutes a night isn’t much to commit to...
Quin is testing different line-ups and getting some data on different player combinations. There may be an offer on the table to trade Exum, and maybe the front office needs to see what the team looks like with Neto running the point. The Jazz aren't a finished product, and they're making evaluations. Part of the question is how to use Dante and whether he's really going to be a PG.
No, his blocks, rebounds, defensive rating, rim protection, and FT% are all down. Especially it is worse of you compare where he was at towards the end of last season its way down from that in almost every way.Isn't gobert posting career high numbers in most categories?
Also, when ever someone posts that graph showing points added in offense and points saved on defense gobert is always the best at both categories and is always way up in the upper right corner by himself.
I agree about DM though.

0% chance of either of those happening. The Jazz are very very high on Snyder as their coach and are fully committed to him. Snyder and DL are very high on Exum but Snyder does push him hard. Fortunately Exum is tougher than you and is working hard to get more playing time, not just expecting it because he was a high pick.Trade dante I want to see him succeed. Or get rid of the coach. ImI hoping Rudy gets rid of quin
The Jazz' love affair with Exum is making me question Dennis Lindsey's ability as a GM. If he weren't the 5th pick in the draft or on the Jazz, I'm not even sure Dante Exum would be in the NBA right now. He isn't good.The only way the jazz trade Exum is if it helps them land an all Star level player.
I still think the Jazz view him as the future starter at PG. Or at worst a 6th man combo guard type player.
