I'd start Exum over Mack. Easily.

Mack really needs to lose all of his minutes to Exum and JJ
I agree. Let him pester Kemba.

Yeah, same. And I'm not trying to hate on Mack by any means.

I don't have Mack Hate, either. But, damn, he's looked bad the past two games. Every turnover has been a "WTF!!"
Would you rather have Mack on the 2nd unit trying to do too much or just playing with the first unit? Exum is better at pressuring the 2nd unit ball-handlers too.
Plus Mack really limited his "cmon Mack" moments in the game when he was on the floor with Hayward as opposed to coming off and co-leading the 2nd unit.

This reminds me of a choice I had to make recently where I had to choose between the lesser of two evils.
Seriously though there is not an option here that will make me happy. I just want Hill back in my life.
The biggest threat in this game is Kemba. I would try and put our best PG defender on him that we have available as much as possible. That is Exum. Mack is better at scoring on his own off the bench than anything else. Plus if he cant come off the bench and help much we have other options if he is playing bad. We know Exum can play with our starters well and be a good defender. We have seen that already for a decent chunk of games.
Anyone have Shelvin Mack w/Hayward vs. w/o Hayward numbers?
