What's new

Hayward has agreed to an offer with Hornets

My big concern: Does Hayward actually want to come back? He had his best season working off of Big Al. He would get to play for a Playoff team. He wouldn't have to play for such a whiny fan-base.

He is going to get booed so bad when he comes back. Fisher 2.0.
 
Actually i was making a joke

Lol at the vagina comment though.

Like i said, no one is mad at hayward. You are just jumping to silly conclusions and making drama in your head

Vermin sounds mad and Hayward is now dead to cowhide lol
 
Playing devil's advocate here... If the Jazz let Hayward walk, who do they sign to replace him? They will not get any free agents to go to Utah that are anywhere near the player that Hayward is, so do the Jazz just hope that Hood or an undrafted summer league guy will be enough, and then hope for a good wing in next year's lottery? Again, I am on the fence about Hayward's value, but what do you do as an organization if you let him walk?

Cowhide made a joke (i think) and vermin is mad at the offer, not at hayward.

Plus vermin is always mad

Yeah, you are delusional if you think people on the board haven't been mad at Hayward.

Funny that people were starting to make fun of him for going on this "tour" because there wasn't any interest in him and he wouldn't actually get paid. Turns out he knew what he was doing and he did it well. I wish we could have gotten him for cheaper, but his agent did his job very, very well.

He probably remembers getting booed the first time. Draft night wasn't that long ago.
 
Explain yourself sir. Sorry to say I can read the future and whatever you blurb is about to make no sense.

Jazz said they will match. Making bad decisions on contracts affects the team. What if it interferes with resigning Kanter and Burks? Or some other free agent next year?

What the Jazz pay their players does matter. If you can't see that then that's your loss.
 
2014/15 salary

Steph Curry: 10 million
Nic Batum: 11.7 million
Demar Derozan: 9.5 million
Paul Millsap: 9.5 million
Goran Dragic: 7.5 million
Jamal Crawford 5.4 million
Gordon Hayward: 15 million?? :eek:

Alec Burks, you know, that guy on our team who is really similar to Dante Exum, but less talented and less intelligent. We can overpay him next year when we feature him in a larger role and a team like the Hornets signs him to a huge offer sheet.
 
Why? It's not like he took a smaller contract for the team. He just didn't feel like risking as much as Gordon did.

Cause he signed when asked, he makes an effort to show that he's cool with playing in Utah, he has more potential to be worth his contract.

IF the Jazz re-sign Hayward, I can guarantee we trade Kanter or Burks this year.
 
You know this how?

Players don't give discounts if they play on one of the worst teams in the league. Also, his agent surely would have made it known publicly that Favors was giving them a discount and thus a "team player."

Of course I don't "know" that Favors didn't give the Jazz a discount, but I didn't suggest that we should "Like" favors more now. For all we know Favors and his agent are kicking themselves for not holding out longer.
