Thompson got the exact same shots per game this year and last year. He averaged the same amount of points. Same amount of 3's a game. Same amount of rebounds. Same amount of assist. Same amount of FT's. Same amount of minutes.

I like Horford as a player, but he's on the wrong side of 30, has suffered two major injuries in his career, missed a number of games last year due to a concussion and is entering year two of a 4 year max contract. I'd hate the idea of the Jazz building their core around a guy like that tbh.
IDK, people really underrate Horford's value. He isnt going to falter much due to age.

Nobody said Hayward couldn't play with Butler. However, playing with Butler and IT would be a completely different dynamic than his role in Utah. If you go back and look, you'll notice I said it's hard to say how it would work out, but that it is a legitimate concern.
You know there was some talk that Hayward didn't want to play with IT, right? Maybe you should argue with him and tell him how awesome he'd be in Boston.
So you've potentially got Hayward, Butler, Jaylen Brown at the wing.... Are we sure they aren't going after Blake Griffin?

"Amazing" unless you really need a rebound. . .

I must be, otherwise I wouldn't have smashed your moms.
However, Klay Thomson is nowhere close to having the same role with 2 MVPs taking shots in front of him as one. That's ****ing silly. I know you're arguing he's taking the same shots, while ignoring he's taking a lot less. You stick to your story that it's the same role. That's fine.

CY is a closet Cs fan. He even said if he was Hayward he'd go to Boston.

I think the odds of seeing Griffin in Boston are better than seeing Butler. He should be their fallback plan if Hayward doesn't go there. He would go a long way to helping them rebound.
I never said that....
I misread what he said. I thought he said I would go root for teh Celtics if Hayward went there.
But yeah, if I was Hayward (meaning I am not me and have not been a Jazz fan my whole life), I would want to get to the East.

ok
Not only that, but you continue to argue how awesome it would be for Hayward in Boston.
****ing Celtics fan son of a bitch.

Ok, I concede. Looking over the numbers, you're right. Klay was a bad example. We have seen other players before like Bosh/Love who are different players in that kind of situation.
I still think playing with IT should be a concern, and apparently so does Hayward.

Do people prefer Fultz or Jackson/2018 LAL 1st?

I bet Ainge is targeting that unprotected SAC 2019 1st. If he pulled that off, they could potentially have a top 5 pick in 4 consecutive drafts (Brown/#3/BKN 18/SAC 19)
I don't like him. I wouldn't draft him at 55 let alone in the first.
