Hood is better than any of those guys. Rodney could EASILY be an 18/per scorer. He's a better outside shooter than Hayward and, IMO, is better at creating his own shot. Gordon is stronger, finishes better and has the drop-step jumper that is hard to defend (of course, Gordon has to start making them). We need players to stretch the floor and Hood is the BEST player on the team to do that...despite his early struggles shooting the 3.
I would ONLY include Hood in a package to get Russell. Perhaps Mudiay, but I haven't seen enough of him to know. And, of course, Towns or Okafor.

I think you guys are forgetting how hard it is for a guy to score when the defense has a gameplan against them. Hood hasn't gone through that yet. Now I'm not saying he isn't good, but remember how much Hayward struggled the first year that happened to him? I hope Hood continues to play this well, because it opens things up for other players. I also think it would be foolish to trade him, we desperately need his outside shooting!
With that said, Hayward is basically averaging 20/5/4...he's better than we think he is.

I like Hezonja more than Hood because his faster, has a better first step, is more athletic and has a quicker release. When you're trying to get from 45 wins to 55 wins, it's these incremental improvements that matter.
Kaminksy also has horrendous post defense. Gives up deep position all the time.
Turner is a better prospect than Kaminsky, imo.
Nah, Turner blows.
kaminsky cant be good in nba level.

Kaminski can put the ball on the floor, hit the three, and can defend at least as good as Memo. He's going to have a long NBA career, but he won't be spectacular. He's a pretty safe draft choice, but he doesn't have a huge ceiling. If we could get him where we will be drafting, we will be lucky.
