Exum will sign qualifying offer and subsequently leave

Plain and simple - we have to keep Exum and Hood because we dont have the money or prospects to replace them. Hopefully, we can get them to something like $25-28 combined per year. Hood at $15ish and Exum at $11ish.

I'm not sure why people think run deserves 2 years $20 and more. It's crazy. What has he done?

Jabari played well in the minutes he got and then the injuries. Exum has played poorly in most of his minutes and has been out more games than jabari.

Potential is the only thing you pay exum for. That's it. He's like an older, now experienced draft pick. I think you may pay him around $7.5 million x 1 year OR you make the contract extremely dependent on minutes played and actual performance. If that's the case, then perhaps he gets a "10 million" contract with $7 guaranteed best case imho.

That's my expectation too. At least the QO part.

For most of his tenure on the Jazz I don't think Exum had the skill to do much offensively. This seemed to have changed a bit this year and that's why his injury sucks so much. For the first time in a while I had mu hopes up for Exum to actually perform well on offense. Oh well... hopefully he comes back at the end of the year and we see that progress in regular season games before we have to decide on what kind of contract to offer him...

^^^^This. I really hope he gets back for the latter portion of the season and is allowed to play without the short leash he's been given in the past. If he doesn't then who could blame him for leaving. The premise of this post would be spot on. I would love to see he and Mitchell running wild to see if it would indeed work before we have to make a decision on him.

Doesn't exist. The shoulder is a fluke. Come on...

So is his other injuries. They do exist, they did happen. Fluke or not, they keep happening to him. That's my point. The guy cannot stay healthy long enough to be on the court and an effective piece of the puzzle.

Is it unfortunate? Yes. Is it the current reality? Also yes.

In part because of the leash that Quin has given a #13 draft pick versus their #5 pick.

Watching DM throw up a thousand shots a game and get stuffed repeatedly at the rim and jack up 3s is great for the kid. It is teaching him to be aggressive, but not much else. It certainly is teaching him to be inefficient.....

The second reason is the FO inability to run with Exum as their guy. The signing of Hill and now friggin Rubio.

Exum has been a PINO (PG in name only). He was not allowed to run the offense nor have plays drawn up for him to initiate.

This season has sent a message to Exum. We didn't and don't believe in you like we do Mitchell (or even Rubio).

Exum will sign the QO.

Why would the Jazz overpay Exum with a QO? To try one more season to trade him? (thanks for not responding as I don't need one)
