Well he kinda looks alive. What do you guys think? What are the pros/cons for Exum getting back in the mix over Mudiay?
 
At some point you have to play exum and let him make a few mistakes to see if he figures it out. Sink or swim so to speak. While I like the fact Mudiay can get you a bucket now and then I'd like to see if Dante could get others involved. I'd really like to see him play a little with Rudy and Bojan, drive hard and see if he can find the lob or kick out. No one else is doing it very efficiently. If he just can't find any rhythm then you have to look for a trade in earnest but the guy needs a longer leash or he'll never be anything for this team.
 
Why does it have to be either or? I think he should be getting a buttload of Niang's minutes. Exum is better than either of them on defense, but doesn't create as well as Mudiay can on a good night (Wednesday was not one of them).
 
I don't care either way. Play either of them or both or neither one.

Exum should get some minutes but he shouldn't play over Mudiay. Yet, anyways. He should probably be in with Green at 5, that lineup requires switchability and perimeter defense and Niang and Mudiay aren't it.

Green at 5 may not be a thing anymore with Davis close to return, though.
 
If at some point the version of Dante that was guarding Harden shows up i'd probably prefer him over Mudiay. Post injury i'm not sure if or when the Jazz would get that version. Mudiay can get to the basket at will but it would be nice if he would actually kick it out to the perimeter now and again. Either way, its probably just best to play the hot hand.
 
No. The team needs Mudiay's scoring ability. Offense has been a struggle most of the season even with Mudiay playing well (mainly due to the lack of continuity between the starting 5). Where is it if we swap Mudiay's offense out for Dante's defense? Who on the second unit scores?

Simple let Dante have the ball. Let him play like the way he was last year before he got injured. He was getting everyone involved and the players were scoring. The problem with mudiay he plays for himself. Or give the ball to Joe!
 
Saying that mudiay has got talent. He just doesn't know how to get all players involved. If basketball was a 1 on 1 game. Mudiay would be a really good player.
