um.... what if he just has a habit of putting his hands on his knees during stoppages of play? I've played ball with guys like that. Lots. Are you drinking already?

Was at the scrimmage. Sat really close to the court. Dude was having trouble breathing.

Probably faking it doe
 
BTW, when an athlete has an opportunity to expand his lungs and take deep breaths, he should do it. Hands on the knees is a good method. I mean, I know jazzfanzers will start panicking threads about their misperception of his conditioning, but a brough got to do what he got to do.
 
Exum is in the best shape of anyone on the team tbh.

It's quite obvious really.

it's cute how you copy UGLI's affectations when your over-simplified way of thinking just isn't cutting it.

Tell me, do you know how tired Exum really is? You are aware, I'm sure, that before Summer League started, he hadn't seen game action for several months. And I'm sure you know that there is no substitute for real game action. And, I'm sure you know that being inundated with new schemes and scenarios can overwhelm an athlete and actually increase exhaustion, right?

So, tell me, how have you disentangled all these issues? You're a ****ing genius. No wonder you take ambien... that mind is always churning **** out.

You overreact really well. It's really quite entertaining, tbh.

Ya, he is faking tiredness in a scrimmage game against his own teammates in order to lull them to sleep so he can then school em

Some people have suggested it -that it's just mannerisms he has, it's not something that he thinks about or does on purpose(to fool opponents or something of that sort), and it's not tiredness.

I don't think that's the case, I am not buying it, mainly based on the level his play which most of the time declines with the progression of the games whenever he's played serious minutes. A possible way to see if that's the case is if he does it the beginning of games - if he does, I'd be willing to count it as sub-conscious mannerism he doesn't think about and something that's not dependent on his tiredness. And something else that has to be pointed out, even if that's the case(that it is mannerism), this still doesn't mean he's in great shape, that should be judged on his physical performance in stamina-requiring minutes on the floor.
