Exum needs to play over Mack

No logical reason Exum can't be the first PG Quin gets off the bench. If he sucks then Quin can play Mack next time Hill needs a blow in the game. Otherwise, ride Exum. Mack is a cold fish.

No logical reason? The statistics say that we're better with Mack. What logic are you using? The future/development angle? That's not a bad reason, but please don't act like there's no reason Ex isn't out there. Thanks.
 
I just wish Mack would do less on the court. If you are open, shoot it, but stop all this dribbling around while going nowhere. It rarely ends well for anyone. Like tonight, he got an ISO on Towns and Towns was giving him the 3pt shot. Just take it, instead he dribbles out the clock and kicks it to a completely covered Ingles with 3 seconds left. That is the stuff that really bothers me about Mack.

I just want to see a lineup of Hill/Exum/Hood/Hayward/Gobert
 
Exum has a better PER, BPM, VORP, WS, scores more off less shots, rebounds better, turns the ball over less, Better TS%, and a bunch of other stuff.

Shelvin does have a better Net off/def rating, passing better and statistically seemingly playing better defense. But I think Exum is a better passer and defender (I dont like defensive stats unless its for the team) and time will show that.

Its easy to justify that Exum is currently a better player with a much bigger upside. But there are reasons to play Mack beyond increasing his trade value but it seems short sighted, especially since neither is going to be that big of a factor in us winning or losing right now.

It's incredibly short sighted. If Quin pulled off a mask scooby doo style and ty corbin was under there I would not be surprised at all.
 
I did hear Locke defending it using the we need toughness and Mack gives us that as the argument. I get that he's a veteran but I don't see toughness. He's no Earl Watson.

I get that this season is not about development anymore but... let's say both guys are roughly equal. Dante just sat out 2 of 3 years. The guy needs to play. He needs to make mistakes and when he is 100% physically by the end of the season he will be a much better more versatile player than Mack. If not we can always go back to Mack. We can't waste another year of this guy because Mack gives us "toughness".
 
As long as the Jazz keep winning and avoid a bad stretch, Exum is screwed. Really doesn't matter how Mack plays. Jazz win, Quin keeps Exum on the bench. Simple as that.
 
Mack sucks. He is really not any bit better then Exum. At least Dante plays solid defense.

I sarcastically laughed at that one ...you sit better length ,speed,and talent down for "toughness">>>>phoney a$$ BS,I'll take the talent

I just hope Dante isn't losing his TRUST in Snyder

I don't think Exum is screwed .With his speed and length at PG,add some more muscle and he's going to be a stud BB player for someone and be paid for it ,hopefully for the Jazz and not another team where he explodes out big time

screwed for the very near future - meaning perhaps the next couple months or so. I have to think ultimately Quin is still one of his biggest fans, he's invested a ton in Exum and will ultimately continue to give him opportunities.
