What's new

LIVE DRAFT - COMMENTS --- Agony, Ecstasy, etc.

Locke just tweeted that Hayward is going to be interacting with the ESA crowd somehow via Skype. Doesn't sound like the type of thing you'd do if you're planning on trading him.

Yeah they just said the same thing on 1320. I need to puke.

O gawd, isn't that sweet.
 
I am encouraged that everybody hates it. With that in mind, what is the purpose here and what is the upside? He doesn't address ANYTHING the Jazz need next year or in the immediate future. So we are going to have a nice wing player with a high basketball IQ and can't guard anybody? Why not just retain Pillow Fort and move him to the 3?

Because he can't shoot.
 
Well.... I won't bitch...
Look at how the Jazz have done with previous picks... now Kosta is not great, but he wasn't a lottery guy. Maynor showed promise, but he was expendable.
But with solid picks like Brewer, Milsap, CJ Miles, Mo Williams, Wes Matthews (wasn't a pick, but still)... and with such a surprise... I have to think the Jazz see something.

They see Hornacek-like intangibles. ....which is fine, but the Jazz need something tangible.

Based on the crowd's reaction at ESA regarding the pick this has disaster written all over it.

Kosta and Maynor were picks in the 20s....big difference

Given the reaction he got at the ESA, this is not something I would advise.
 
Jazz stupid to pass on Paul George? The guy shot 42% for a team that is not even ranked. Even if you don't like Hayward, George is a much inferior prospect.

If you take success in college into a big consideration, what would you say about Adam Morrison, who happens to be a similar player to Hayward. Think that the Bobcats aren't still kicking themselves about passing on Roy who was not as good as Morrison in college?
 
@CJMiles34: "I think tha pick could be good or it couldnt ... tha guy can def play I watched him in tha tourney but if we sign wes and kyle back we are...now overloaded wit tha wings again ..maybe it eans someone doesnt come back or gets traded idk but I def like his game tho or atleast what i...saw from him in tha tourney...but its understandable too to pic tho because myself and AK are the only wings under contract at tha moment"
