The Gordon Hayward mistake has screwed the Jazz for years to come

They're different players. Hayward is more of a playmaker. They're closer in value than people think. David West is actually at least as reliable on offense for the Pacers as Paul George.

I'd much rather have George, but it's not because Hayward isn't quite a good player in his own right. The thought of the defense with a core of:
Favors, George, and Bledsoe makes me drool.

West is a much better offensive player. George is okay, but Indiana as a team kinda sucks on offense.
 
I tyrone Corbined my pants when we drafted Hayward. I really wanted George. But now I'm ok with the pick. They are both good. Plus I would rather have one of the few good white guys in the league. They are rare.
 
Look I'd rather have George too, but you can't say Hayward was a 'huge mistake'. He's pretty good in his own right. It's not like this was the #1 overall pick, #9 is no sure thing.
 
I used to hate O'Connor for every first round pick he made since he was drafting ( except Koufos as I really thought he was a steal at 23), but kind of gave up on it. Yeah it would be nice to have Parker or Arenas, CP3, Boozer, Big Al, Josh Smith, Rondo, George, Leonard, Valanciunas drafted instead of what O'Connor got us, but nothing can be done or changed so whatever.... just enjoy what we got and hope for the best.
