Regardless how high he jumps, he still sucks. Take that.
**** you archie moses. I'm proud to be an american.
Hey, guy, we shouldn't us Americans be united?
Say whatever you want, Ravin In Flight, but freedom isnt free.
I never said other wise, random, proud American.
Who cares what his vertical is? He's white.
Thriller, for someone with so much "supposed" evidence at his fingertips, I saw a lot more opinion and a lot less fact in your post. You talk it up big to give yourself credibility, but you did the same thing you accused me of, namely hand picking the comparisons you wanted to make (in order to make your case). You talk about his weight, height, and bodyfat??? First, weight is an issue for almost every draft pick. Second, you think 6 ft 7 to 6 ft 8 won't work in the NBA??? News flash, he's the same height almost exactly as Paul Milsap. And lastly, his body fat is not bad. Not superior, but not a liability either. Like the weight issue, most draft prospects need to lower their body fat some.
no double-entendre intended, I'm sure......in the NBA, when he's surrounded by superior athletes, you really have to have a consistent tool. hayward doesn't have that. spotty shooter, no real penetration moves....

And certainly don't create threads trying to convince others of Hayward's athletic ability when quite honestly, it's a huge liability.
Ya don't need to go lookin at some stopwatch on a given day to know that a state-champ caliber tennis player couldn't possibly have no lateral quickness, know what I'm sayin?
i won't get to WATCH until tonight, but if the box score and blogs are any indication, hayward's 34.5" vertical isn't dominating the summer league.
is anybody watching live? is he just being way passive (1 FGA, 0 ast) or what?
yep, he was a bit passive in the game, didnt really try to find his shot even if there were a few instances he could have. made some good passes and hustle plays in the end. Got 5 rebounds i think and he definitely showed and made use of his vertical to get these

I only read until here, because I need to get to some 4th of July celebrations, but I think you need to reread my posts. Picking and choosing favorable stats, websites, or player comparisons isn't what I tried to do. Though I'm far from perfect, I think if you reread my stats you can see that I made a legit attempt in comparing Hayward with other comparable guards of his position, size, and draft position. Just because you're upset that Henry and Babbit had better measurements and combine results doesn't mean that I'm being biased against your boy.
Weight isn't something that is an issue for almost every draft pick. Where's your proof in that? Such a valid argument must have several articles discussing this issue. Goodluck finding them...
Secondly, you talked about Paul Millsap's height, Paul Millsap has an insane wingspan, several inches more than Hayward. So... I guess there goes your comparison and point there.
Thirdly, though body fat isn't necessarily a real important stat, I do think it contributes to many fans' opinions that both Babbit and Henry were superior athletes.
I need to go!
