Gordon or Marvin

Mission Accomplished

All this Gordon talk makes me realize what an asset Marvin is. Especially when we allow him to play the three and not try to force him to be a stretch four. I want the Jazz to keep Marvin and let Hayward walk. Marvin seemed more clutch and doesn't command the same over inflated money that others are going to give him. I'd rather see Marvin shooting a three than Hayward clunking one at the end of games. How many game winners did Hayward take and miss he is going to be missed until we find another average player.
 
I wouldn't just let Gordon walk. He is a RFA and it seems other teams are interested. But Marvin is not a starter. Gordon even on his down year still averaged 16 ppg and 5 rbg 5 ast. While Marvin on the other had in 50 starts 9 ppg 5 rbg 1.3 ast. Gordon can still get better. Marvin won't be, he is going into his 10th year and not getting younger.. You have the $ to spend, lock Gordon up now (unless you can for sure sign a better SF) then sign Marvin to a 2 year 3.5mil/year contract and have him be your 3rd SF and have him be a mentor to Gordon/Hood going forward. But IF you can sign a better SF then fine do it but then you do a S&T with Gordon for assets but you don't just let him walk.
 
Marvin playing the 3 is a very sub-par player.

Marvin playing the 4 actually has value.
 
Don't be shocked if Marvin doesn't go anywhere. We've got lots of cap room and not a lot of players that are going to want it.

I still wouldn't be the least bit shocked to see Boozer come back in a salary dump.
 
Good ****ing hell you really can't be this thick, can you? This is the most idiotic post I've ever read?!?!?! It's posters like you that make it impossible to to have any kind of intelligent conversation. Congratulations on completely overlooking all the facts! Oh and to miss a game winner you actually have to shoot one genius, which Hayward has done! Please name one player that has made more game winners then they've shot, because you can't!

I don't get it! If I call someone an idiot I get reprimanded. But you can have one of the dumbest posts ever.... Congratulations!!

Take it easy slugger, we're all friends here.

Hayward, 37 minutes per game
Marv, 25 minutes iirc

When you get thoughts like this in your head, just... step... away... from... the keyboard...

Not a good post. You are not having any rational thoughts.

Would love this for two reasons:

We could lustily boo our own player all together without a single fan saying "but no, he's one of OUR OWN!"
There is a fresh crop of Bachelor cast offs and rejects for him to plow through.
 
Sadly enough several posters have no interest in being friendly or even friendly discussions.

It is truly sad. I wish there were fewer troll posts and people ripping each other apart for their opinions. I don't know why it couldn't be more like the NBA subreddit on https://reddit.com. The discussion there is a lot more respectful. Unfortunately the Jazz aren't discussed nearly enough for my liking.
 
I like you Stoked but I find this ironic as all get out considering your angry camel-jockey post.

That's fine. We all have our moments and bad days. But there are those that come here looking to start stuff.

I do my best to be friendly to everyone here and to those I can't (can name 2) I mostly try to leave them alone or be very neutral in my reponses.

You are out of your mind. Hayward > 3 x Marvin

sorry i fix it ,

Hayward > 10 x Marvin
 
If Hayward gets a 15mil offer from Cle, I would try to pick up Deng for cheaper, and pick up Marvin. Deng had a very comparable year to Hayward so if we could get him for cheaper than what Hayward is offered I would probably do that, and see if we can pick up another FA that has good defense for the bench.

The last option would be matching Hayward but at 15mil I might be leaning 55-45 towards letting Cle eat that contract.
I'm still not convinced Cle is even going to offer that much to Haydizzle, would be surprised.
