So now we have Hill and his 3.5 apg/34 mpg and he's going to be the starting PG.He complements well but he's not going to run the show for the Jazz.Give Exum 34 mpg and he's probably 8 apg plus !! Hill joins the rotation of Exum,Hood and Burks but the best chance the Jazz win big is with Exum running the show.
 
I think he starts to begin the season. Veteran presence while Dante shakes off the rust. Hill is more than capable of holding the job until Dante takes it away from him.
 
I don't think he will play major starter minutes over Exum man, he is aged, he will contribute a lot hopefully but I just don't see the organization waiting any longer to see Exum become the legit starter play maker they want him to be.
 
I fully expect Exum to be the starter by December. I trust Coach to figure out the rotation before and after that point.

If Hill starts the season, plays well and the team is good, he'll continue starting. Jazz want to win and if Hill starting leads to wins, no change will be made.
 
I think hill starts and, like sjf said, continues to start if the jazz are playing great with him starting (I think they will).
 
Hill is currently the better player &, in a vacuum, deserves to start but the team is obviously committed to Dante Exum as it's PG. Not only does starting Exum further create continuity with Hood, Hayward, Favors, & Gobert (which is clearly the future starting lineup as of right now), Hill is a much better fit with the 2nd unit as he is more effective playing off of the ball with Burks handling the majority of the playmaking duties. Regardless of who the starter ends up being, both will play important (& likely equal) roles on this team.
 
Exum has missed two of the last three years of playing basketball. Hill will start and they will bring along Exum slowly. This is why they got Hill. It wasn't to have him play 15 minutes a game.
 
Hill just got off a season playing 34mpg. The Jazz gave up a 12th round pick for him, I'm assuming that means they want to keep him around longer than 1 year.

If the Jazz want to re-sign Hill at the end of the year, I think he needs at least 25+ minutes and will most likely have to start at the beginning of the year.
 
Hill will start. Obviously. He'll also play a few minutes at the 2.
