Uh oh, Bill is questioning Exum.

I miss Clairvoyant Bill.
I'm not really worried about Exum.... He has shown over the past few games that he has:
- Elite speed for his size and the NBA
- Elite court vision and higher than average basketball IQ
- Better than advertised defense for his age
- Good kid that will work hard to improve
- Not as bad as advertised 3pt shooting (which he can improve on, imagine Spurs not picking Kawhi Leonard because he can't shoot the 3 ball).
I think he'll be an above average NBA player when it is all said and done. Whether or not he's an All Stars is another story all together though.

I'm not sure that either one of these clowns understands a single thing that the Jazz are trying to do.
I'm also not sure either one has ever watched a jazz game.

I like it because it gives us perspective how the regular hardcore NBA fan views the Jazz. A change of pace from the rampant optimism we all have. Hopefully we can prove them all wrong.
Lol at them thinking Derrick Favors is a bench player though.

I'm also still not sold on Marcus Smart. I don't think he's quick enough to play the point in the NBA.
Yeah, it's kind of laughable that they question Exum while acting like Smart is this sure thing. Dude still can't shoot worth a **** last time I checked.

Should note that this was probably recorded about a month ago since they talked about the media deal almost being done, so they haven't seen any of the scrimmages, preseason, or practices. Can't blame them for having the Jazz at 29 since they were so bad last year and they hadn't seen any of the new system. Also, Bill is a huge Celtics homer and isn't shy about it.
Lol @ Bill thinking that the first game of Smart vs Exum, would show anything whatsoever about the way their careers would end up or about the correctness of Jazz' decision. Whether the Jazz were right to pick Exum will be known at least several seasons down the road, not several games into his first season.
On an unrelated note and not that it means anything, but before the draft I had one single wish about our #5 pick and it was "Please don't pick Smart"...
