Aaron Gordon VS Dante Exum

Ultimate 2-way player would be the best offensive player and best defensive player at the same time. So, Lebron James, but better.

I think that's Aaron Gordon's potential. Seems reasonable.
 
Kawhai Leonard vs Tony Parker



Who's more valuable to the Spurs????? Who's harder to replace?????

I think it was Locke and many other people I have heard say there are more good point guards in the league than any other position. Because there are more guys 5'11" to 6'4" that come into the league than any other size. Kawhi Leonard is the future of the Spurs franchise not Tony Parker.

That's not what I'm saying.



I'm saying, if you can choose 1 player at the start of their careers - who would you choose? Parker or Kawhi??? Parker did win all those Chips and Kawhii had a couple of good Finals game but he hasn't actually won anything YET.

So is Tony Parker a Hall of Fame candidate?

Tony Parker is by far the better player than Leonard. It's not even close. Tony Parker is a hall of famer. I don't think Leonard will ever sniff the HOF.

I don't even see how that's a debate really.

Tony Parker is so underrated. He has been his whole career. People should really debating if he is the best point guards in the game. Even one of the best players. All he does is win. Arguably the best player on the best team in the world.

Leonard just scored a career high last game of 29.

Tony Parker was winning championships and finals mvps before Leonard ever came around.

Yeah, also it seems like every Championship team needs that 1 locked down player at the wing position to succeed:

Kobe's Lakers: Ron Artest
Spurs: Bruce Bowen/Leonard
Mavs: Shawn Marion
Heats: LeBron
Bulls: Pippen

Jazz would probably need 1-2 more star player though unless Gordon develops into some sort of offensive threat..

This.


If Exum shows Parker's potential (smart, dicing and slicing, with an improving shot) you've gotta take him.
 
Gordon vs Exum.

That is tough. Like Cy said, it's so hard to know who Exum is or how good he is. I'm just trusting what the scouts are saying. If he wasn't just placed at the top of mocks, I really wouldn't know about him.

I lean Gordon just for the possibility that he might fill that 3 hole. I don't really care for some point guard controversy between Exum and Burke, with one or both not happy, and looking at waiting period to see what move we need to make. With Aaron Gordon, we can just hit the ground running possibly.
 
Gordon Will be able to guard Blake in a year or so. Clippers are in the west. Khawhi Leonard with Spurs for the forseeable future so Gordon can guard him. Best scoreer in the game at okc, Durantula. Gordon can guard him. Plus Gordon will make Utah a little more Flashier which lets face it Utah plays boring bball to the general public(not us actual fans who love the game). Constant ESPN Highlight Dunks and Blocks by Gordon.. Its an easy choice Utah.
 
I like Gordon, but I don't think he has the same offensive ceiling that Exum has.
