[Miggs]

Oh ****, really? He was my pick in 2009, haven’t heard his name in a while. Interesting.

For the record, I think the Jazz aren’t reading any real interest in something like this happening and they are so desperate to save face and show Exum they believe in him that they are mostly-bluffing about how much they value him.

TLDR; he’s here because no one else wants him/his contract (and the Jazz don’t want to pay what it would cost to dump him). I would love to be wrong about everything about this topic.

I'm positive this is not the case, but it does show how deranged some fans have become about Exum.

Ron, I know you have been one of the biggest Exum supporter and I admire your belief in him. Yet we need to be honest, he has been the biggest bust so far in Jazz lottery pick history. I honestly do not remember player picked so high yet giving so little in return as Exum.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Lol. Don't need him?
You want your starters and Royce and Ed playing all the minutes.
You don't think you need good defensive guards in the second unit? smh

Relax fella was more speaking to our roster having much more playmaking and a very steady pg. We don’t need to rely on him... if he’s there great... if not we can find another backup pg on the cheap.

“Deranged”? He who smelt it dealt it, homie.

We’d have to trade Exum into someone’s space and then sign him. NY might have been a candidate before signing Payton. It’s gonna cost some draft assets. His contract is a negative value.

Agreed. Therein lies the rub.

You are deranged.

So far he has had a slow go. Injuries have slowed his growth. That doesn't mean the Jazz don't want him or other teams wouldn't want him. But I also know you are one who really dislikes him. Even when he was playing well you said you didn't like him because he moved "feminine"

The Morris’. Jamychael Green—moreso because he’s really solid and our other four starters are so damn good. Jeff Green. Vonleh. Parker. They’re flawed but they can be since the remainder of our starters are so damn good and they’d have Rudy behind them.

At the 1, I want someone who’s proven to be competent at running an offense behind Conley. Barely anyone left at all.

I'd prioritize a four who can rebound, play D, and shoot. I previously thought adding Parker, but with where we're at now I don't think what he would bring to the table is nearly as valuable with the upgrades that we've made. My first priority list would be Morris Sr., JaMychal Green, Morris Jr.. Not sure on Vonleh. Not sure on Jeff Green. Would be ok with Ryan Anderson, assuming he gets waived, to just simply start but play ~15 minutes to basically minimize the wear and tear on Ingles and Bojan at the 4, but he wouldn't be ideal.

Yes to Evil Caruso please.

What we need is our LeBron stopper.
