Are we more excited that he's still playing in the NBA, or that he has a new baby?

Would you have been bugged by a nickname like this for him as a Jazz player (or any team, I suppose)?

New baby for sure. But I did have an Exum shirt. Partly, ok mostly, because he had #11 (Alex Smith’s jersey number).

Yes, initially.
If he became a top clutch player that season, then it might be ok. But that takes time, and opportunity.
Kind of like Okur being the Money Man. Over time, when he kept making clutch shots for months, then it became a good nickname.
Exum can't have that kind of a nickname for one game, unless he scores 37+.
37 wouldn't even be the hundred best scoring game of the season, but I think it's still a good bench mark for anyone.
