Wow 2 guys in the latest Bleacher Report 2017 draft picked in the top 4 ,Harry Giles #2 and Dennis Smith #4 with ACL tears.
Jabari Parker is back playing in the NBA within a year after his ACL tear,within 15 months is scoring 36 points in a game.
So why is Exum treated different ?
He needs a soft landing when he has superstar potential?????.He was the PG for Utah when they were out of this world defensively and WINNING !
Utah needs to play their best player at PG ,George Hill never was discussed as having Exum's potential or playing to it.He's(Hill) a piece to winning but not the final piece to Jazz being a BIG factor to Jazz being elite and top 4 in discussion with GS,SA,and Clev.,Exum is though.Watching from the bench(Exum) isn't getting him ready like playing.He just spent a year watching from the bench and some guys want him watching MORE !! The season starts 15 months after Exum's surgery.Tell me why if Exum is healthy he should be on the bench when he already has proved he makes the Jazz better and the Jazz were a winning team.

It's not just the ACL, its the lack of playing time at this stage of his career that hurts more.

So the winning and the super elite defense that the Jazz played with Exum playing is to be ignored ,for what reason ? Isn't winning what the Jazz want? And again if he has more potential than GHill ever dreamed of having ,followed by what he already did towards winning do you have him sitting more. Unless you believe he's a bust ,then do you believe the Jazz are stupid,ignorant,completely wrong in their belief in him.He's healthy ,time for some here to voice whether or not they think the Jazz are completely wrong on Exum.

The Jazz haven't given up on Exum by having Hill here. If anything this is going to help him grow by learning from a veteran player who is clearly better than him at this stage of their careers. ACL tears can have different effects on people, mainly jumping ability and lateral movement which is big in keeping people in front of you.
 
OP is right.

Ship the trophy and call off the season.

He's also right that ncoloradojazz is his junior, many times.
 
The ONLY reason icoukd see starting exum next season is it would be better for him to play with his knee warm instead of coming off the bench.

With that said i want to see the kazz win now and hill give us that ability. Exum and hill can play a lot together.
