Exum

[Coach Ellis]

I love you bruh, but you should really just leave it to the Jazz.

If they think it's good to go, then they'll play him. Truly, it will depend on the severity of the injury and how well his body responds to his rehab. In my experience as a football coach, the time frame just doesn't work.

Having said that, I've seen a high school girl soccer player who was back playing a little more than 6 months after her injury, and Adrian Peterson was back to running and cutting full speed after 6/7 months. Not impossible, but it is rare.

He should pull a "Boozer" and sit out the rest of the season. Then, on locker-clean-out day declare he is all healed up and ready to play!

You don't get in game shape without playing in games.

Won't he be playing ball this summer for his national team?

I hope not

He will probably be back for our series against the cavs in the finals

He comes running out wearing a cape. Everyone cheers. The refs even let him wear the cape during the game and he scores 101 with LeBron guarding him all game. LeBron cries. Everything is good.

Can't wait to see Exum next season. I feel like there's going to be a lot of pressure on him as he's been out for a year and everyone wants to see him back. Hopefully the injury will make him appreciate health and he'll pull a Julio Franco and take care of his body and eat well.

Exum needs to study what Curry went through with his injury. Needs to be on Currys path for strength workouts.

Did they have the same injury?

 

[Jazz Spazz]

I agree. Let's sit all our best players. It is just too risky out there! They might get hurt! DL can fill the roster with 10-day contracts... Oh wait, he's already doing that. Carry on.

I agree, too risky and dangerous out there.

A little risky, maybe. But it's not like he has to play against BYU.

No. Curry had an ankle injury. Exum has a knee injury.

 

[Ron Mexico]

Did they have the same injury?

No but I think the root of the problem that caused both injuries is similar and once healed the prehab and strength work should be similar. Exum will never have Curry's shooting but a lot of the rest of his game he can aspire to and with much better length. To move like Curry does and how Exum was starting to he needs great hip, leg and core strength.

The end of the regular season would mark 7 months and 10 days since Exum's surgery.He might be running good and jumping ok but only the summer workouts will he hear how good he looks and start believing it.He needs to exert is excellence to his team mates during summer workouts who have his back.He excels playing with his team mates he'll be ready for everybody else.

Do you honestly believe the Cavs are making the finals?

Unlike Curry let's hope it doesn't take Exum years to overcome his.

See senior, I do

I can see how playing BYU can be scary. About equal with playing against hockey thugs probably.

Not safe out there. Keep all valuable players safe on the bench. If you could not schedule certain teams in the NBA, I say do it.

I was actually trying to be funny by suggesting that the Cavs half of your Cavs v.s. Jazz finals suggestion was the risky pick. I guess my joke was a bit too subtle.

Why can't all players be gentleman out there, like this guy?
