Official trade Exum and/or Bradley into cap space thread

[Deleted member 365]

The only reason I brought up KD is because someone brought up MJ first.....
maybe if he Quin hadn’t hooked him so quickly in some games, he might have looked decent in more than 2 games yeah...?
I know he’s a bit injury prone but I’m not giving up him yet and again, my main point is we’ve just jumped up to begin a front line contender for the championship.
I’m more than happy with what they’ve already done upstairs...

No, it was a stupid comparison. Exum started as a rookie and sucked. So don't give this Snyder is mean to Exum nonsense. You’re done.

Yeah, I saw a few games. He’s pretty good. He’s thick so he can’t be bullied as easily by lebron yet is athletic enough to be able to stay in front of an aging lebron. Plus, he plays with an edge, so that helps him get under his skin a bit.

I love his offensive game. It would perfectly compliment what we’re trying to do out there regarding spacing. Hed definitely force defenders like lebron or Green to play honest and not cheat/play the passing lanes.

GO GET THESE GUYS!

I think many of us would say yes to Exum if he weren't so injury prone. That's the problem with him. He can't stay healthy and so far he hasn't proven that it's even possible.

Even when healthy he still sucks and is a bust

The Jazz desperately need Exum to show something. If Conley plays the way we all want him to play, he is only here for one year.

Ideal situation is that Conley is amazing, gets some ridiculous deal from someone else and Exum flourishes as a backup PG and takes over next year as the starting PG with Mitchell, Gobert and Bojan.

Signing Conley to another 3-4 year deal seems like a really bad deal.

We desperately need Exum to freaking do something without getting hurt.

Fixed!

I don't expect Exum to be moved but he better be aware that the ground is shifting beneath his feet. He's on a "win now" veteran team with WCF expectations. And he's no longer mixed in with inconsistent jump shooters like Rubio, Burks, Crowder and Favors - the patience for him is going to be at zero if he can't come in and hit open shots.

When Exum started we had elite defense during that time, we also had a really good record for those games. He got the ball into the players he should, and initiated the offense like he should. He didnt force himself to do much more though. He played elite defense at the PG position during that time as well. Which is amazing for a rookie that young.

He underachieved as a rookie , you are making statements with your heart and not your brain. He is a bust

I don't mean the fans - I mean the organization. I mean Coach Quin.

Although now that you've mentioned it, they're still way too many Exum fan boys out there if you ask me.

Title says it all. Moving them into cap space allows us to pick up a Marcus Morris or JaMychal Green and/or Alex Caruso.

Yes or no?

Which team wants to use their valuable cap space to sign them?

The organization is hoping and praying he makes up for their error in drafting him and then extending him

Cool Story.

Exum was historically horrible as a rookie.

Among the 295 rookies who played in the three-point era (starting in 1979-80) and logged at least as many minutes as Exum's 1,817, he was dead last in player efficiency rating. And he didn't fare much better in a number of other metrics.

He was a complete embarrassment and liability on the offensive end. I really don't care about his defense. Perimeter defense in this league is super overrated. Especially when you factor in his offense. You can't win in today's league with a guard as abysmal on offense as Exum. Since his rookie year he's maintained his ghost status on offense and routinely gets hurt before Christmas. If we can unload him for a 2nd round pick let alone a decent player, you do it. If the NBA had 6 rounds, like the NFL, I'd unload him for a 6th round pick. The sooner we get him off this roster and replace him with a productive player, the better.
