Summer League Roster rumors/confirmations?

I think our SL team will suck. I want:

Exum - 25 mins
Hood - 20 mins
Lyle - 25 mins
Hanlan - 20 mins.

I don't want there to be time for other players. I don't want us to guarantee other players time. I want out guys to get better. I want a playoff push. Give Exum minutes. Give Hood mins. I want Exum taking 10-15 shots every game.

Make the Jazz SL about the Jazz for once.

Agree 100%. Very little more annoying than watching a bunch of scrubs who will never see the floor in training camp take minutes and shots from young players who are actually part of the future for the Jazz. Hood, Exum and Lyles should take the bulk of the shots and Hanlan and Cotton should take whatever is left over. Anybody else shoots the ball unless it's a dunk or a layup or at the end of the clock, they are cut immediately.

Uh huh.


I think things will change now that snyder is the coach
 
I agree that the focus should be getting Exum, Hood and Lyles every touch possible. However, I would include Hanlan on that list. Obviously, the Jazz see something with this kid or they wouldn't have drafted him. I for one would like to see him play with actual talent other than the scrubs he played with in college.

Arturas Guiditas whom DX had at the top of the 2nd rd, will play for the Seventy-Centers in SL.

They were really piling on him during the draft on ESPN. Saying he is one-dimensional and he is not going to be able to get his put back dunks and stuff in the NBA. Didn't really make sense. He looks plenty agile on his film and he seems way more aggressive than your average NBA player. He's going to push dudes around.

Summer league is also about finding guys who might be able to contribute later if there are roster spots because of injuries or trades. Cooley has been in a few summer camps, I believe. Yes, Utah definitely needs to give their main guys time, but the major development will be in training camp, not a handful of SL games with mostly scrubs.

Screw those guys.

Exum, hood, cotton, lyles, and trey should never come out the game in sl

Maybe play the scrubs in Vegas but the fans in slc don't wanna see the scrubs

This. It's one thing when we had Deron, etc. It's another when we knew we were tanking and we needed bodies to get us through the year.

If our goal is to make the playoffs (and it should be. If it wasn't, we should have tanked more to end the year), then we need to put Exum in as many situations to succeed as possible. Build that kid up. Surround him with his teammates (Hood, Lyle, Burke, etc) and push him. I want him taking 10-15 shots and playing a lot.

He needs to be pushed. Last year was his RS year. He was allowed to stand around and acclimate. Not anymore.

We need SL for Exum to take a step forward. Screw the scrubs.

He signed as a backup plan. His contract has an out before July 31st if he can get a NBA team to bite based on his summer league performance. Most likely he'll be in Europe though.

Utah has drafted guards that they will be putting through the ropes. Haws would be better off playing SL for another team. Same could probably said for Bachynski. They should be shooting for a team like the Pellies for SL. The Jazz should be a last resort for both of them.
