What's new

Chad Ford has us taking Exum at #5.

There is not much info on Exum. So whoever is telling him not to work out for teams beyond the 4th pick is stupid. It could make him drop big time if the Magic don't take him.

Actually his assessment on why Exum did not go to college and entered draft this year is spot on. Mystery sells. Had he played in college he would be talked as late lottery pick at best and more realistically he would be in the same range as McDaniels or Anderson. So very, very smart move by his family and agent to sell him now. Now we just need to see which stupid sucker GM is going to bite on it.
 
Another scenario is that the Jazz draft Vonleh at #5 and trade Kanter to the Celtics or Lakers to then draft Smart or Gordon. That would be a fair trade, imo.

If Ante Tomic is really coming over, I could see this playing out.
 
Between Vonleh and Exum, Exum has the greater chance of busting. Vonleh size and rebounding would allow him to have a rotation spot immediately.

Exum also has the biggest chance of being a star. He has a huge risk/reward factor. It's going to take a lot of stones to pull the trigger on Exum.

KOC wouldn't even sniff Exum, DL just might take that chance.

Yeah it would, taking a consensus top-4 player at #5 would be a huge risk.
