Dante Exum will win the Rookie of the Year.

I called the Trey Burke odds that last year. Time shall tell. (I had Oladipo last year)

It's nothing more than a prop bet, I dont take it seriously. I always like to speculate on the Rookie of the Year, I've won it a few times in the past, Exum would be the best odds ive pulled off but, oh well.

I haven't ruled out betting on Parker also.. I just wanted this thread to be about Exum's RoY chances

Once i bet on the Devil Rays to win the world series preseason at 250:1 in '08 on the strength of their pitching and they got to the world series on like a 20million dollar budget, they didn't win but it was still one of my favorite bets ever. If Exum is close to the RoY and loses by a smaller margin ill take solace with that.

Explanation not necessary. It's a bad *** bet fo' sho'.

While we are getting at you with a bunch of old stuff -- my wife was asking this morning what that mhz sleep tone was that you recommended about 2 years ago. Can you remember it?

You need a ton of minutes to win ROY. Minutes and a green light. Parker is going to have both. Exum may have neither. Poor bet if you ask me. Besides, you are betting on your home team player, gonna be hard to be objective doing that.

But, if you enjoy throwing 50 bucks away supporting Exum, that's fine with me.

Injuries happen. I think it's a pretty good bet if you have disposable cash.

I don't know about ROY, but the kid seems mature and ready to get to work, and I think he'll surprise people. I do hope he sees good minutes so that he can learn quickly. My gut tells me that Snyder is NOT going to pull a Corbin on us in not letting the young guys play. I think they'll play, but time will tell.

I'm sure he will choose veterans at some point over young guys and we will be mad. I think he will be more creative with his lineups though to get the key guys playing time.

Odds shmodds, I never expected Henry Rowlengartner to be rookie of the year especially after breaking his arm.

Henry Rowengartner throws out the first pitch to a Cubs game, the same day as Dante's debut... Coincidence? I think not.
 
I hope when Dante struggles in his first season, people don't go crazy.

Also, if he doesn't struggle a lot of things standing in his way:

Strong competition. Jabari is going to be thrown out there by the Bucks with a green light, Dante will be sharing the pg spot with Burke and probably coming off the bench, at least at the start of the season.

And in order for Exum to beat out the higher-profile rookies in the Utah market, he'd have to not just be the best rookie, but have a huge season, so much so that the NBA couldn't deny it.

I hope it happens though.
