So for those proposing we move Trey to the bench, at this point what is your starting lineup?

Exum
Burks
Hayward
Kanter
Favors

Cause I'm not gonna lie. That gives me a boner.

Yep..... or favors at pf and kanter at center..... either way, thise are the 5 i would like to see on the starting lineup the most.


I think that in the beginning of the year trey will (and maybe should) start, but by jan/feb i would like exum to be ready

I don't want to get into a pissing match because I'm as excited about Exum in a Jazz uni as anyone, but to not acknowledge that weakness is either deluded or ignorant.

HAHAHAHAHA Ill crush you in a pissing match on this subject, Whats the basis behind that statement?

Ive seen all the Exum footage to be found, read all the local articles on him throughout the years. I vehemently disagree and can produce a ton of footage of him going left with spectacular results. He also finishes well with his left hand around the basket.

I'll start with this.. Isnt his "signature crossover" going left?

Only thing I don't like is that I feel the 2nd unit would be too weak without Burks.

Can Burke carry a 2nd unit? Do we want him to try?

I know Burks can do those things pretty well and actually make the 2nd unit a strength.

Trey will never like being second fiddle to Exum.Trey was freezing Dante out last night and on 1 play pissed Exum off with Dante throwing his hands in the air standing wide open.We have Exum and Trey hasn't ruined his stock.I don't think these 2 can play together because they both want to be lead dog.When rubber hits the road Im choosing Exum every time.Get something for Trey now and bring over Neto or sign a PG to play behind Exum, Dante is a point guard and needs as many minutes playing only that.

Interesting observation about Trey freezing Exum out at times last night. I had the same thought a couple times and remember specifically the play you're referring to. I hope we're just imagining things, but there were a couple times where it looked like a real possibility.
 
His handle is loose sometimes because he is not in great nba shape. I think he is a point guard only and that's a position you only get better at by playing.

Well the signature move is just him making 1-3 straight-line dribbles going left. It doesn't take much of a left hand to do the move as much as it does just having really good acceleration.

Not commenting on his lack of/strength of left hand (haven't seen enough), but being able to do that move doesn't prove he has an advanced left hand.

Handle is loose because he is a taller player. All taller PG's have this problem. He will have to get better. It will be interesting to see how he reacts to more pressure from smaller/quicker guards.
 
I have no problem with this in SL but did anyone else feel like Exum sort of hogged the ball once it touched his hands last night? I could be imagining this tbh and SL is a whole 'nother brand of basketball. Just something that crossed my mind at a certain point. It, admittedly, could be entirely inaccurate.
