July 15 Summer league Jazz v Nuggs

Hayward doesn't have a good history of jump shooting nor of being anything more than a role player.

You don't pay role players the max. We learned nothing from the AK47 debacle. It's that simple.

Was he laying the ball up from the 3pt line all those other years? What am I missing?
 
Looked at the box score, seems like some of "The Others" got burn? Do I need to know anything else about tonight's game?

I have 46 rep power burning a hole in my pocket for a good recap or a pic of a mega hot babe. I mean MEGA!

My apologies for getting back on topic, but any theories why Exum has virtually disappeared the last two games? I realize that it's only summer league, and his conditioning is poor, but even early in the game tonight he was rather passive. He is a much better player when he attacks. I just wonder if he is holding back because he doesn't want to tire quickly or if there is something else going on.

He is just an unselfish player I guess.

The argument never changed. Hayward isn't a good shooter and he isn't the max. If you want to argue about the shooting then please actually address the whole role player and max thing. No point in paying him the max if his production could basically be replaced by Burks, Exum, or Hood.

You're passionate about the jazz. It's awesome. But you keep moving the goal posts in these discussions and it makes it exhausting to have an exchange which is why people end up throwing up the white flag.

I don't think anyone is over the moon about paying Hayward that money. I was unhappy. But now, it's done. I get WHY they did it instead of letting him walk and the reality is, it's a 4 year deal, and this notion it set back the rebuild is insanely premature.

We haven't missed out on a FA or dropped a player because of it. We retained a guy that team usa and apparently the Jazz believe is very valuable. I'd have paid him 12 max. But we lose him unless we match and at this point, with our new coach and players id like to see Hayward playmake and get them involved and see how it works out. I think he's a net positive for the team even if he cost a lot.

So just take a deep breath and you can be a skeptic, that's fine, but no need to throttle Hayward at every opp

No problem with someone being skeptical, but stop beating a dead horse and being annoying.

If you really want to the world to know how you feel about Hayward, write a short blurb about it in your sig. Just stop repeating your same **** over and over again. I realize 80% of the post on this board are just repeating stuff, but you take it to a whole new level.
 
We all knew Exum would struggle with conditioning right out of the gate. It was pretty obvious it would be a wake up call. I think he'll transform himself this year.
Should be fun to watch. The struggles will be hard at some points, but he'll shown enough flashes to keep us excited.

Hood is streaky. No shocker. He's still no CJ Miles.

I think the Thomas kid. He needs to be on our bench.

Trey with a good game. Really like the way Trey is leading the team. He looks so much better than last year's SL.
