I think his best case is Tony Allen. He has to find his dog and just commit to defense 100% while working on his shot. Stop trying to be a PG.
Dante will have made nearly $50M by the end of his extension. I'm curious to know who the highest paid NBA "bust" is, and how close is Exum to approaching that? It may end up to be the biggest accomplishment of his career.
I said busts... he was picked 38th... and He averaged 15/5/3 over a four season span on good shooting....Chandler Parsons - $94 million. On one contract.

Exum was picked 5th and has never ever even come close to parsons.

No, they're on my 'do not see' list. Their alts as well.you guys are enjoying reading Jazz / utahjazz and whoever else he is ??
Parson wasn't a bust, but he is one of the worst values of all time.
Exum is like spending $10 on a Big Mac. Parsons is like spending $100 on an Applebee's hamburger. I'll spend $10 on a Big Mac all day long.
But at least you do not get diarrhea from Applebee's burger.... Big mac though is a poison...Parson wasn't a bust, but he is one of the worst values of all time.

It kind of is. You paid to receive a meal and yet you stuck with bad feeling in the stomach and it even tasted like ****. Plus it gives you nasty farts next day.Exactly the same type poison some people on here think Exum is.
er for a player who has never amounted to anything, ever in his career. Brown/Darko levels of salary cost and disappointment.
Exactly the same type poison some people on here think Exum is.
Here is how I break it down: When was the money spent? Where else could the money be spent?
For Parsons, his contract has crippled the Grizzlies' ability to build very well around Conley and Gasol.
As for Exum, we spent money on Exum AFTER we signed Favors. We had no cap room after we signed Favors so keeping Exum was almost a no brainer because it was keep Exum or hope to use our mid-level. Since we absolutely suck at getting good free agents to come here, we had to pull the trigger to bring him back. Bringing back Exum, though overpaid and maybe a bust, didn't really impact us financially this season. If you're like me and have close to no faith that our FO can sign a big fish this summer, it's not really going to hurt us next season either.
And I mean, if we’re being real and if you do the math, it’s really like if Exum were a $10 Big Mac, Parsons would be a $22 Applebee’s burger. Not as big of a price margin as you infer.
There were a few MLE type guys this summer I’d rather us of have tried for than Exum, for sure. Even if we didn’t sign anyone, for flexibility’s sake, I’d rather pay $0 for no production than pay $11M for no production. Even if we can’t sign people we can absorb contracts for assets and the like.
