Where the Hell is my Dante Exum hype?!!!

Just in case people start worrying, after this summer with both summer league and the world champs, exum will be a thousand times more ready for game play.
 
How did Exum & Burke do in the practice????
Both did pretty poorly but burke looks like he belongs and did quite a few things well.

Exum looked about a bad as he could look honestly
 
Thanks a million for the play by play, fish. Great job.

Somebody made the point that this could be the biggest crowd he's ever played in front of. If so, it could be part of the reason he struggled so much, but it's also part of the reason he simply isn't ready to be a NBA starter. Probably 20-25 minutes - which would still be a lot more than the older Burks got his entire first two seasons - lol. Again, nothing against him, it simply never has been a realistic scenario for him to start or play 30+.

Thanks fish - any interesting tidbits from the Q and A?
 
After listening to the interviews, I'm impressed with Exum's attitude. They asked him about his shooting struggles, he admitted he got a bit tired, but followed that by saying, but that's no excuse, we have an 82 game season coming up - I'll need to work on that. Excellent answer. Disappointed there was no Rudy interview.

I can't wait to see these guys in summer league.
 
I'm super-duper excited about Exum. He's going to be a STUD and it won't take 82 games to prove that.
