Had Exum played in NCAA he would not be in lottery discussion at all. Now scouts are raving about his games vs inferior competition. 11 min - that's all it took team USA lead by Gordon and M. Smart in U19 game to expose him and send him to the bench for good. Dude is crazy overrated.

So besides him playing against inferior talent, what do you have against him?

High volume poor shooting chucker, poor performance in the medal games, limited explosiveness, turnover prone.

I'm actually not sure what he's good at that translates into in game production. Even against HS kids, his shooting, points, assist, rebound and steal numbers were less than stellar.

In short, the answer to orangello's question is that he wasnt great playing against that inferior talent. If you're playing inferior talent, at least be dominant.

Well people like his size and length and quick first step. Passing is above average as well.
 
AKMVP is ahead of the crowd on this one. Exum isn't considered top-tier by Lindsey. He's in the next group down. I wouldn't be surprised to see him slip a few spots. Wouldn't be surprised at all to see Vonleh go #4 and then Utah pass on Exum to take Gordon or Smart. Of course, if he IS available at #5 and Lindsey drafts him, I'll hope Exum brings the thunder from down under!

I haven't seen him play, only know what I read here.... But do you think the professional GM's did not see what happened in those games? If what AKMVP says is true, they all know it too, and his stock will drop like a rock on draft day.

If he gets drafted high as projected, then we can assume they saw something else the rest of you didn't.
 
Here is semifinal game Exum plays vs Serbia for those who never seen him play. Australia lost and could not advance to play for gold.

Stats 21pts ( 7-19FG, 3-7 3pts, 4-10 FT) 4reb,4ast, 2stl, 2TO.

And how did those things translate to actual in game production at a high level against HS players? Answer, they didn't.

Ummm. . . I'm pretty sure that AKMVP is advocating that the Jazz NOT take Dante Exum. I'm hoping that somebody else buys into the hype, because I'm just not that high on him. I'd be just fine with getting Vonleh or Gordon, but I'd really hope that they trade up for Parker.

I thought so too, so I'm not sure why he seemed to kind of defend him in the post I responsed to.
