Exum Update

I hope Exum will sign a contract some where else, taking into account the way he has been treated by Snyder and some Utah fans. For the last few years He has been treated like an idiot by Snyder with a short leash. Many Utah fans here also kept saying he was a bust. Sign a contract some where else, Dante, you dont need to take this S*** .

Guess you don't know that pushing a player is.

Exum and Snyder have a great relationship.

Snyder talks about Exum more than any other player, even while he is hurt. He thinks he will be really good but it's really raw and pushes him harder than any other player on the team according to him. He is trying very hard to help develop him right and good habits in him.

It's not Snyder's fault Exum got hurt twice now. Last season Exum was still recovering from his ACL. It takes time to get back from that injury. Especially the first half of the season.

It's hard to take you Australians kids serious when you are such huge homers.

I think the max that Dante will get is 4 years, $40 million. There's not a ton of teams with cap space, and he's a huge risk.

The 76ers have plenty of cap space next year. It would also be tempting for Dante to play with his best friend Ben Simmons for a play off team.

Any source on them being best friends?
 
The Jazz aren't going to let Dante go IMO unless the price is ridiculous. Dante doesn't have much leverage to go out on the open market and demand a lot of money. I don't see Phily offering Dante more than the Jazz are willing to match. Lots of players are friends around the league, I don't see Phily or any team wanting to over pay for Dante. He hasn't proved much, is still a pretty raw player, and has been injured a lot. His value just isn't that high, and I think the Jazz should resign him. He has the body, length, speed, and athleticism to be good, but it all has to come together still. This free agency the Jazz have the power to match whatever they want. I do however feel like Dante is one of those guys who will leave if the Jazz develop him into a great player his next contract though.

I think Utah has been fair with him. He started midway through his rookie year, despite being clearly unready. Sure, he's been pushed by Quin. So was Rudy. And Snyder's been in the ear of Donovan.

I'm sure Dante will want to gauge his value on the market. Hayward did the summer after he turned down the same money Favors got in his extension. That's the process. And the Jazz can match and keep him. Jazz did that with Hayward and Millsap. Or his agent and DL reach an agreement after surveying the market.

Because agents often stretch the truth and create their own rumors, it wouldn't surprise me see Lindsey want to match an actual offer sheet before just handing out a ton of $.

Simmons piss poor shooting and bad work ethic might rub off on Exum. Plus there are not enough inflated stats to go around on that team.

Exum is much better off here.

Either way he is a rfa and any offer is getting matched. Jazz are very high on him.

Cuz Philly is going to break the bank for a third point guard? This is idiocy. . .

They might play Simmons at pf more and more going forward. They have said he will move there sometimes when fultz comes back. But it is dumb, they don't chase Exum.

If Simmons can't shoot he can't play pg due to not being able to properly run a pick and roll. No team is successful with a non shooting pg. Those problems will get much worse in the playoffs where defenses and scouting step up and there are more half grind out sets.

Utahjazz32 sounds like he’s about 15 years old but Rubashov is 45 year old masquerading in a grumpy 82 year old blokes body and should be taken very seriously indeed.

Happy Austrayah day you blokes... crack open a few tinnies for us
