Start Dante for Rubio

Jazzta said:
Finally a voice of reason and not this “my boy is better than yours, I was right hahaha you suck!” nonsense.
The best scenario we could ask for is Dante knocking on Rubio’s door for the starting position. I saw Rubio cheering on a couple of good plays of Exum’s last night, he probably wants him to succeed more than all these fanbois..

Yep, you and @RRJazz are correct. This whole debate is getting old.

When we get to the summer, there wont be a massive market for veteran non-shooting PGs. Due to one guy's fit and another guy's potential, we all need to get used to the idea of Rubio and Exum for a bit.

If we all want to contend for a title, we should be rooting for both guys because we will need them.

[edited] watch the games Jazz were smoked many games ,this is not contender quality play and strength of schedule is a poor excuse. Shame when a tough schedule is used forgetting your *** was kicked bigtime. Jazz didn't have an "A" game when they loss fair and square.Rubio has demonstrated a ceiling and Exum is showing he just might have a ceiling we haven't witnessed since DWill.

One day you'll learn how to watch a game of basketball and see the subtleties. Well, maybe you will. Here's a hint: don't just watch the ball; let your eyes go kinda loose and watch more action.

Rubio is terribly inconsistent at shooting. He's great at a most of the rest of the game. He may not be the right player to re-sign, but saying that he sucks is just stupid. Like, straight-up dog-**** stupid.
 
Dante has always had a low turnover rate. BIG reason to play him more since Ricky and Don have been TO machines.
 
I'm down to start Exum. Not because he played well in one game against a bad team but because... what do we have to lose? We have a losing record this season. Is it going to get much worse if we start Exum over Rubio? I doubt it. We need to change something. Trading for Korver provided a little spark. Maybe changing up our lineups and rotation would do the same.

Dante is so damn fast! He gets to the basket at will. If he gets the floater it's all over. Think about it. If the centre stays with our centre. Dante has a floater or a layup or the dunk. If the centre goes to Dante he throws the alley Oop or pass to gobert or favors. He could be great if he gets stronger improves his floater and layup

No he doesn't. Several times last night he tried and failed, picked up his dribble and pivoted around looking for a pass out. Remember that spin move he did with zero confidence to finish after?

Not really why we should play him. Dante rarely attempts anything, his TO numbers are down because he isn't mostly in a position Rubio and Mitchell are in.

Exactly. An Exum lead squad is going to face a whole lot of short clock situations and probably average a little over 90 ppg against most teams.

Nah, I think his lack of turnovers is legitimately impressive considering how many lobs he throws. That's not easy to do. Those are high risk plays.
