Per @tribjazz: Tentative plan is for George Hill to play on Thursday

Don't EVEN compare Dante to Deron. Deron could shoot(42%/42% when he was 21). He had a killer crossover. Yes, by all means let's extrapolate Exum having a great career based on nothing. And excuse Dantes ****ty play because he's been out of basketball. Let's just say 3 years because you really can't count a PG's rookie season, right? So he's a rookie THIS year. And he's not better because Quin is holding him back, just like the Jazz did with Burke.

I'm hoping Dante develops. Jazz already screwed the pooch with Kanter and Burke. Complete wastes of high picks. Hill was a good trade...IF he re-signs. If not, another wasted lottery pick. And if Dante is anything less than a very good starter, that's simply a waste of a #5 pick. DL is just lucky he's drafted well in the back end of the draft.

Between Dante at #5 and Hood at #23, Lavine is the only guy I like in-between those 2... I'm sure arguments could be made for others, but looking back this highly touted draft has turned out to be pretty weak.
 
Seems like getting back to near full strength and slaughtering the Embiidless Sixers seems like a great recipe to go on a nice run.


But this year man, I just feel like Rudy will go down or something now.

This is why the idiot list doesn't lie. I never compared him to D-Will. I stated a couple weaknesses holding Exum back namely dribbling and finishing at the rim and then referenced Williams lack of finishing at the rim and how bad he was as a young player first couple years to show that it was something he could realistically improve upon. I also referenced Exum's rookie year, how he didn't do much other then stand beyond the 3pt line, where as now he's doing more causing him to make the mistakes he should've made in his rookie season, so in a way it's like having another rookie year as different players develop at different speeds.

Idiot!!
