Chad Ford: the Jazz consider Dante Exum their franchise player

[8]

I followed Elfrid Payton's twitter for a bit, that dude is obsessed with Sour Patch Kids.

Obviously read my revelation in the marijuana thread

Rookie Dante Exum told Yahoo Sports that he is not only working on his strength, but also stopped eating junk food to improve his stamina. Yahoo! Sports -

Gets crushed on screens and gets crossed up fairly easily. His main defensive advantage so far has been PG's being used to Burke's lack of length then being surprised by Exum's length. He has made some nice defensive plays, but overall his defense has been below average (as expected for his age).

It is funny how fans love their guys and have to bash guys we didn't get. If Gordon was on the Jazz people would be praising him and bashing Exum. I think both guys can be great in a few years.

You took words out of my brain.

Dante's decision making might end up being his best attribute. Watching John Stockton all those years, I was always amazed at his decision making. I see some of that in Dante. He seems so cool under pressure, like the game is in slow motion...and the game hasn't even slowed down for him yet.

I can't say that I've seen Stockton in him yet. But I will never forget how one of the slowest guys on the court (Stockton) could draw a defense in with the game on the line and either pass to an open man, or make room to shoot it over a more athletic player. Still blows my mind to this day.

This seems suspicious. Words, maybe. After that, you lose me.

Agree.

I will never forget the slowest guy on the internet.

Still blows.

Yep.

It's something called a sense of humor. It's something that can't be taught, To achieve it you must one day leave the comfort of your mothers basement and witness personalities, conversation and sarcasm on your own. Don't worry your star wars action figures aren't going anywhere.
