What's new

Following 2016 potential draftees

I still don't think Hayward's worth a max contract.

It's funny that this sentiment is even out there to me... The guy isn't worth his contract but we can trade him for a ton of value? He's either valuable or not right?

The people that argued against his contract kept saying it would be untradeable but I bet Danny ainge would be over the moon if we offered hay for #3. He'd be their best player and I don't think it's really close.
 
Last time I checked Hayward averaged 19.7 ppg this past season with 5 rebound and 4 assist per game. There are playoff teams who had their leading scorers average less points at a less efficient clip. There is nothing about Hayward scoring ability that is holding us back. It's the rest of the roster (namely the young parts like PG and only having 1 other playoff rotation worthy healthy wing) on the team.
 
If he falls to 8 Hood and 12 get it done. Hood might be close to enough by himself.

I still have a lot of faith in the core of this team and how it has been built. with an emphasis on 2-way players and length. Even though Hood isn't known as a defender, he does have great size for a 2 guard. I think trading him for a small SG (who at best will be an average defender) would be a mistake.
