Can't blame them.
If they lose game 7 - bringing in these veterans was probably a waste of time. Stifling development of two young prospects.
I don't agree with this. The Jazz brought in 2 quality free agents. Both have exceeded expectations for me. Had Hood progressed, Burks stayed healthy, and Exum/Lyles contributed, this team would've been the deepest team in the league. If there's a waste of anything, it's the waste of two lottery picks on Exum and Lyles. Two players either completely overrated or uncoached or too lazy to contribute. These guys should at least be contributing to this team by now. Especially Exum, who is arguably the most physically gifted player on the roster. Even by bust standards, this guy should be contributing more than Mack or Neto in a backup PG role. Yet, he isn't even doing that.
