replacement-level PER is 9. the Jazz could just pick up a guy off the street and achieve a similar result.

Jeremy Evans PER 23, he must be one of the top 10 players in the NBA right? What? Let me guess, limited playing time can be used as an exception here but not for your agenda vs Hayward....
Here's something for you to gnaw on....at 20 years old Hayward is leading the team in 3 point %.

Exactly. He plays hard, gets after loose balls, but doesn't get out of control either. And, he doesn't back down from contact; in fact, he looks very good at forcing contact to draw fouls when he does get the ball. I think in a couple years he could become a very good NBA SG at 6'8".

I can only hope that this scenario pans out.
 
I get the feeling we're going to regret passing on Paul George. But hopefully Hayward is a much taller, more (but still not very) athletic Hornacek.

Well we can at least give him the same shot we gave CJ. He has shown some real promise, let's see where it goes.
 
Dear Dwill,

Could you make a Kyle Beckerman(RSL) or a Jamison Olave(RSL) for me?

Thanks in advance.

yours truly,

Shaggy

c'mon man. i have no agenda, other than being impatient with Gordon and his sucky play. He has played enough minutes to qualify for the season stats leader lists. Evans hasn't even played a third the minutes Gordon has.

i gnawed and came to the conclusion that it says more about the team 3point shooting % than it does Gordon's shooting.

Damn. Bro. Do you really think Gordo sucks?

he has sucked this season, but maybe there is a little hope. here is a list of active NBA players that with a rookie PER between 8 and 10 (Gordon is currently an 8.9):

there are a few decent players there (Dragic, Barea, Green...) and even a few really good ones (Kaman, Martin...). however, the large majority of them are awful.
 
1-6, with three turnovers in 20 minutes: another Hayward classic. he has already dicked away a quarter of his rookie contract. he sure looks like he's playing hard out there, running around in aimless circles, like we haven't lost 14 of the last 18. get pissed off, or something, dammit.

no doubt when KOC saw this guy out on the court, he thought to himself: "We're going to need more draft picks."
