Different styles. Bojan is a superior sniper. Gordon had that nice step-back mid-range game that was damn near unstoppable.
I know one thing for sure...I'd much rather have Bojan at his salary than Hayward at his, even if Gordo wasn't hurt. He is in no way 2x the player that Bojan is. And he's a big weanie. Bojan appears to have big *****. World of difference mentally.

Bojan has a very good midrange game
When I watch BB I see very similar styles. Lots of step back mid-range, unless I’m delusional (possible).

I probably haven't watched him enough. I just remember Gordo not being that great a 3PT shooter. I guess he did have a good final season in Utah but he was mid-30's before that, IINM. I hope Quin cures Bojan of any desire to shoot mid-range shots. He needs to be parked in the corner.

I think what you meant to say is,
Pre injury Hayward for that one season, no. Otherwise, yes

They are both white so this is a valid comparison... Hayward beats Bojan in overall awkwardness and unlikability... but Bojan is superior at basketball things so it’s a really close call.
While Bojan is thinning in the hair department, I prefer thin hair to the douche-cut Gordon is currently sporting.
I think it all comes down to ****** size and Bojan got the onions so he wins.

i think Bogie will surprise a lot of ppl who haven't watched him before Dude's got a variety of skills
I don't know, Hayward was pretty damn good both seasons prior to his all star season too. I think Bojan's a better shooter than Hayward ever was but Hayward was probably a better scorer, passer, playmaker and defender. Either way, I'm just glad to have Bogey at $17 million a year over this version of Hayward at $33 million a year.
Wouldn’t he have been like $35-36M had he resigned?
Yeah, you're right. I was going by his Boston contract but he would've made even more if he would've re-signed with us.

I think Bojan has a better handle than Hayward, and seems a lot more fluid. For as frail as Hayward was for most of his Jazz career, he seemed to be stronger in the last two seasons here in backing his man down and fighting through contact than Bojan is. Pretty sure the Jazz don't need that in their current iteration, however.
Hayward with the ball in his hands as the clock ran down was always an adventure. I like Mitchell for that a whole lot better. Especially a Mitchell who will not be triple teamed this year.

No, but we don’t need him to be. Just need him to be a lights out shooter so Conley and Mitchell can be light years ahead of Gordo.
