      Dante's problem was terrible injuries early in his career, so Quin Snyder quickly gave up on him. Meanwhile, Donovan Mitchell appeared and it was all over for Dante in Utah. I watched him live in Belgrade, amazing motor and first step, but most importantly - good character. He didn't come to Europe just to fulfill a contract, nor did he experience Europe as a step back in his career. He had the opportunity to work with the best European coach ever, who put the ball in his hands and after a month it was clear that no one could guard him in Europe. In the end, he was full of confidence and led the team that should have won the Euroleague, but the Partizan players were suspended because of the brawl caused by the Real Madrid players.

    I’m Australian and yeah, the hype around Dante seemed a little overblown and suspicious. He also missed the draft workouts too which to me was orchestrated so he wouldn’t have been found out before the draft against seasoned college players.

    @flibbidyx2 2 роки тому +7

    I watched Exum a lot. The analysis of his game as a rookie is spot on. He was extremely tentative on offense and that would lead to slow decision-making. He would often find himself open and in a position to attack, but because he was too hesitant, the defense would recover and he would then make a decision when it was too late, leading to mistakes. His defense really did shine though, and he was so, so quick! He had speed both laterally and in a straight line. His on-ball defense coupled with the emergence of Rudy Gobert on the interior helped transform the Jazz into one of the league's best defenses when both were on the floor. However, both were offensive liabilities on a team that already lacked scoring punch. From there, the injuries sapped whatever remaining potential he had and he was eventually shipped to Cleveland for Jordan Clarkson. You'd love to see him get another chance because he's a really great guy, but he'll need to develop skills that don't just rely on his athleticism, some of which has been lost due to those injuries. Only time will tell.

Then Jabari Parker was seen also seen as surefire player.

    he still got potential, just needs to be in the right system. good defender and facilitator, can get to the rim any time he wants (finishing is below average but dunks are still pretty impressive) and has an improved jumpshot. coach synder never let him develop and work through his mistakes, was so frustrating to watch. could see him make an nna comeback especially after his strong olympics and solid play with barcelona, not as a star or anything but a derrick white type of guy who'll contribute on both ends.

    As a Jazz fan I fell for all the hype when he came in. I was always super hopeful that he would be our version of Penny Hardaway. I gave up on him the last year the Jazz had him as I finally thought it was time to trade him and they did for Clarkston who's been a lot better for Utah then he was. I don't think he'll find his way back into the NBA due to how much hype he had and how big of a let down it was. I wouldn't mind the Jazz bringing him back as a back up PG to Conley or 3rd string combo guard on a way better contact then the 10 mil he was making before they traded him.
