Dante Exum vs. Zach Lavine

You are keen, good sir! You have mastered the Parthian Shot, I must admit. A true modern master of the more testosterone laden arena of sport forum vernacular and the maintaining of the position of power within this arena. Bravo, bravo!

Thanks, I do try to be keen.
 
Lavine played real comp last year and Exum has not. Face it Exum is a mystery to everyone. Noone knows how he hoing play when the regular season starts and on top of it he is a 19 year old kid. Funny some think he can come in and should start fro day 1 of Trey.

Zack Lavine will be the steal of the draft and will be better than Wiggins. Exum can't even play three minutes without grabbing his shorts. Exum is two years away from being two years away.

Either that or he is just stoopid..
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt...for now.
It was so obvious from Game #1 who the better PG prospect on the Jazz was. Granted, Exum's conditioning was horrible. But that's to be expected; he's been working out, but not playing competitively. I'm really not worried about his ability to get into game shape. Unless Trey can suddenly learn to play faster and become a reliable shooter, his days are numbered.

I know you're joking, but it was surprising to see how fast Exum got winded. I think we'll see a player in much better shape at the start of the season. The entire Exum vs. LaVine SL comparison might be moot just due to the shape Exum was in. Maybe he gets in great shape and blows everyone out of the water.

Fran Fischella called, wants royalties for you stealing his line.
 
Anyone else see Lavine drop 28 and 5 last night? I wish Exum would be a little more aggressive in trying to score. It's obvious he can get by people when he wants. Just want to see him finish.

I think Lavine is the better prospect, but to be fair he's had the benefit of playing AAU ball and one year of big time collegiate hoops. Exum hasn't had that luxury. Lavine IMO is the superior athlete, better dribbler and has the edge in shooting. Exum just has the court vision over Lavine.

I'm pretty sure Exum can have a similar night even though he is raw and young. We just need Trey Burke to get injured so that there is no other option but to play Exum a lot of minutes. That's what it took for Lavine to have this kind of game. He needed both Rubio and Mo Williams to get injured. If those two didn't get injured you would have never seen a game like this from Lavine, even though he is fully capable of it.
