Exum Update

The Exum homers are living in a vacuum with hindsight as ammo for their argument. The Jazz were a playoff team, gunning for position, trying to keep their All Star player. While it would have been nice to develop Exum further last season, it could have cost us wins. Pure and simple. Yes, we sacrificed development in what ultimately was a successful season with a catastrophic result, but that is no justification for looking back and criticizing Quin's decision. Winning is what ultimately matters, and he did just that.

I'm excited for Exum's return and I want him to succeed. Last year is behind us and he has a long leash now. It's all on him.

Personally IMO people here put too much stock in playing time as the ultimate way to progress young players. They develop more in my opinion in practice and personal work. Experience is more gained in actual games.

Is there anybody out there who hopes Exum returns too early or before he's ready?

I dont know but there are definitely people who want him to sit out longer than when he is ready to play. Which is what my post was alluding to.

isn't that just their way of saying that they want him fully healthy before a return?
