For me either side of the discussion is legit. It would largely depend on what's out there. I think Boston is looking for that guy and may feel Hayward could be that guy and reconnecting him with his college coach.

At this point there's really no rhyme or reason not to start Trey and Alec from here on out. This season the best 5 players has been (in no order) Gobert, Favors, Hayward, Burks, and Burke. What's so difficult about making this your starting line up. Start Burks and Burke with Booker until...

Or you could start the guy on the bench for a change. What's the worse that can happen?

I'll just point this out because nobody else will, but the Jazz fell apart after Burke wasn't in the game. Both times. He should have more than 17mins tonight.

Well that happened quickly.

This needed to happen. What are they going to do with Neto? He shouldn't be playing with Burke.

Ingles and Trey are shooting the best 3pt percentage on the team if I'm not mistaken.

This is the part where watching the games matter instead if just pointing to numbers. Trey threw a half court heave and the last second shot to end the game. These are shots that need to be taken players should not be penalized for. With that in mind he was 6-13(46%) which is completely acceptable.

Which means if teams are focused on taking open Trey's away from Trey it opens up the lanes for Hayward and the post for Favors. And if they focus on taking away the mid range shot off the PNR that allows Hayward to spot up and create open lanes for Favors. It's simple basketball.

What you are saying is don't take open shots. Which in turns puts more pressure on the the guys who you feel should be taking those shots. The team is essentially 4 on 5 offensively when Neto plays because team don't really have to guard him. Trey is hitting a high percentage of 3's especially...

This is quite possibly one of the lowest IQ comments. If teams are giving Burke the shot why in the world would he pass it up? The reason he should be starting is because he has shown the ability to make those shots he's given. It's when he's trying to create his own shot with the back ups...

My point was why not stick with one of the best FT shooters in the league instead of trying to switch. The last person in that situation you want with the ball is Durant. He has to know that and regardless of what's the "plan" stay with KD to deny him the ball.

I just wonder how long Snyder stays with Hood and Neto in the starting 5. Either Burks or Burke needs to start(really both). Hood can't shoot(surprisingly) and neither can Neto. They are hurting Favors and Hayward especially Favors since he needs space to work in the post.

Westbrook 100 out of 100 times.

This is generally the learning curve for teams as they mature. Unless fans were expecting to be a top 3 or 4 team in the West there's games are usually a part of the process.

He wasn't screened on the play though. It does appear he was expecting one and maybe that's where the miscommunication came from. It appeared Gordon was complaining Durant pushed off.

That's not smart. You stick to KD like glue there and you force any of the other 4 players to make two FT's.

What was Hayward doing leaving Durant on the inbound play?

I said Trey miss FT would come back to bite the team. A lot of missed chances all around.

Man Durant is just filthy!
