Bill and Jalen's Jazz Preview

[Lakers_Slapper]

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 know!!! A couple of NBA veterans, what would they know about the sport they played for!!!??

On Exum, We were looking for superstar talent, so might as well swing for the fences. Plus our international scouts had seen a lot of him.

This team only got better from last year. Don't know how people would think they got worse.

Yeah and to be honest it's really a good situation Exum is in at the moment. Because he didn't play college ball, he can just comes in as the backup and learn on the go with Burke taking all the pressures off of him.


Don't forget that MCW sat out a whole year at Syracuse before he got handed the reign. He was also 22 years old last year while Exum is barely 19 right now.


Sky's the limit for Exum.

what in the hell was up with jalen and the bay? did he need it to beat bill away at times?

waaaaa waaaaa about Karl and Isaiah. get over it. that has nothing to do with this year. would love to see favors do that to Chris Paul.

I think you meant "bat." I was thinking the same thing. I thought he might swing it at any moment.

Just like Corbin was a fantastic coach because he was an NBA veteran. The junkyard is cluttered with NBA veterans who were then poor GM's, coaches, scouts or commentators. There are 50 posters on this board who could have done a better job discussing the coaching change, direction of the offense and defense and how the personnel fits/doesn't fit, etc. Instead these buffoons filled most of their time with cheap gags and clips of former Jazz players.

Based on the "work" that went into their preview, their credibility in my eyes has gone WAY down.

Lol Simmons definitely was never in the NBA.

Anyways, b_line is right. These previews they do are just for fun and not really serious analysis. Their preview for the 76ers is pretty funny.

We all know Bill Simmons is as unprofessional as they come. Before the lottery he was crushed when Utah won the roll off against Boston, and surely that reason was Exum. Not he's hating on him like the armchair homer he is.

This. Simmons wouldn't be questioning Exum at all if he landed on the Celtics.

Always enjoy the previews... Bill thinking Marcus Smart will be waaaay better than Exum this year is kind of funny. Smart hasn't exactly been tearing it up this preseason.

Also, was funny when he mentioned Hayward, Parsons, and Ryan Anderson... Ryan is a totally different player... how'd he get in that group.

Also, laughed at the Enes 3 thing, because that has been my big question. I can't figure out why most assume he can shoot the 3 well.

These are for fun... enjoy them as that.

How did we get better? Hire a rookie coach? I guess you can just hope our young players are going to get better, and I certainly hope they do, but outside of Burks, they haven't progressed at all the past several seasons. If we've really now discovered how good they can be... our team is going to suck hard this season, just like last year.

Have you seen Exum since we picked him? He sucked in Las Vegas. He did nothing at the world championships. He has sucked so far in the preseason. Simmons is a Clippers season ticket holder, so he might have been right there to see him get destroyed by Paul the other night.

Isn't it more likely that Simmons is just going off any/all of the above?

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous about Exum. Exum is a potential pick, that means risk. We very well could get burned.

I'm with ya

 

[r_u_s_t_b_u_c_k_e_t]

Can't wait for this team to make everyone eat their ****.

Love these previews, but yeah the Jazz are going to be a lot better then Bill and Jalen are giving credit... They hardly discussed anything too.

They predicted the Jazz would be 27 last year:

You know where the Jazz finished, right?
