Who is your starting 5

I think Exum is our best shooting guard defender, and could see him getting a lot of playing time at the 2 because of it.

True. I could see Quin starting Exum opening night against Lillard and McCollum and then switching it up against the Lakers.

Hood will have to play 3 while Hayward is gone unless you want our 3-rotation to be solely Johnson and Ingles.

No doubt he will play there some just don't start him there. I think JJ and Ingles is fine for 15 games. If Burks is healthy I feel much better about it.

healthy Burks, it would be Hill, Burks, Hood, Favors, Gobert

I really don't like Hood and Burks as your starting wings. I don't think either of them play defense well enough to slow down the best wing player from the other team.
 
Some coaches don't like to mess with their rotations by moving guys to different spots, and would rather start the backup even if it's not the best 5 guys.
Does Snyder view it that way?

That being said, I agree with those that have said JJ starts at the 3 in place of Hayward.

No way Exum starts over Hill at this point. Hill is proven, and Exum still has lots to learn and prove.
We want to win now, not wait while someone we think will be really good improves.

The time is now.

Inserting Exum and moving Hood to the 3 in my opinion has a very low chance of happening, like 1% chance.
I could be wrong, but that's how I see it.

I think our best lineup with a gun to our heads is Hill, Hood, Hayward, Favors, Gobert.

However, I'd be interested in seeing Exum start at point, move Hill to the 2, and Hayward at the 3 with Hood off the bench. That'd be something else.

You're right. That would be something else besides Hill-Hood-Hayward-Favors-Gobert.

That would be the Absolute Worst shooting starting lineup in the game of BBALL. Showing again you know nada about this game.. Exum is still so raw and not ready to be a starter in the nba.
I know you are Family to Exum but the kid needs time. Throw a player like him, who didn't grow up playing ball in America and you are risking ruining his career before it has even started. Would ruin his confidence and break him down to nothing. If you are starting Exum then you would have to sit Favors or slide him to the 5 and put Lyles in a the 4. Good luck playing ball with 3 guys who cant shoot. Defending this lineup would be beyond simple.

Well, it worked pretty well when Exum was starting his rookie season.
