Hayward to Boston

[fishonjazz]

What is Rudy listening to? Can't understand.

You tube "Loyal" by Chris brown. The song is awesome (one of my all time favs) and the video is pretty awesome too.

I'm telling you - Hill was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Jazz picked up a glorified back-up PG and tried to dress it up as a forward move so they can save some money long term.

Players don't give a **** about advanced metrics like wins about replacement - they care about wins above losses. Hill is a proven winner and leader. Rubio is not.

I'm ticked Hayward is gone - and the way he handled today was a cluster **** at best. But in the end, can you blame him?

Lol. I don't think Hill had anything to do with it. He was going to Boston no matter what. Hill isn't the reason.

Why wouldn't they? They are both married with young kids.

That all it takes? smh at your responses today.

So the Jazz have no accountability here?

None of this is Utah's fault?

Boston is better. Better organization, better city, after endorsements come in, better money.

Utah's had plenty of chances to get better and they messed up. This is their consequence.

Maybe having the lowest payroll in the NBA the last two years wasn't the brightest idea in hindsight.

plenty of chances to get better ... so explain 23 wins, 38 wins, 42 wins, 51 wins .... .... ?????

I'm sure IT and Gordon's personalities are going to mesh real well...

umm you're assuming Wayward actually has a personality.

We'll find out. The year Rubio was out with ACL the Wolves went 16-66. The year before that when healthy, 40-42.

You are correct on Boston media.

I was there on a biz trip years ago after Pats got railed by KC on Sunday or Monday nite. Next day talk radio wanted Brady and Belicheck out of town (2 more super bowls since that day). They are nasty.

I will say this , I didn't think Hayward had the nuts to go to that tough market.

He looks like a kid but his RFA year he bet on himself and got a Max offer from Charlotte (NEVER did I think he would get a Max)

This year I thought he would play it safe and stay here, but he didn't.

I wish him luck but I am getting sick of the Rudy love. Let's see what Rudy does as an UFA. If he stays then he can speak.

Right now Rudy looks like an *** because he did not control his destiny.

Fans are like "Hayward should have told us he was leaving". Owners vs. players I always root for players. You think owners give a flip about many players ? They are pawns. Hayward is lucky to be in the top 5% that are treated not like pawns.....

He busted his *** and helped us get to 2nd round of playoffs.

He made a family decision to move on .... let's not make this more than it is

Rudy looks like an ***?
Um, **** you

We can make the 7th or 8th seed. The only difference being we'll play GS in the first round instead of second.

7th seed would actually mean avoiding GS til the third round if they made it that far.

I don't get all the Hayward hate.

If you worked for a company that didn't do everything they could to win (not trading for Paul George) would you stay with them or go to a company that has shown they will do what it takes to win titles?

Hayward has a better shot at a title in Boston than Utah, the Millers have made that perfectly clear.

No one cares if you get it.

No one probably gets why you seem to hate most things jazz related and always talk badly about the jazz yet post on this site.

Man, have you been paying attention? DL has done a fantastic job. Hired Quin, drafted Rudy and Hood, picked up Jingling on waivers, signed JJ, and now Mitchell. He has helped create a winning attitude after the disaster that was Corbin.

 

[fishonjazz]

Lol.

Frequently wrong? Ok. You're kissed because I'm usually right.

Had Utah ranked during the strike season instead of grabbing cash, we'd have Lillard, Hayward and Gobert.

Had Utah traded for Teague, we'd most likely been in the WCF last year and Hayward would most likely be back.

Had Utah traded for George, Hayward ain't in Boston.

DL is a bad GM. He can't draft, and he's screwed up the rebuild.

The Millers would rather make money than win.

It sucks. I love the Jazz. This decision will cost my family money. But reality is reality.

Really sounds like you should find another team to support.

He's just a total idiot as well as a troll. Maybe he's really Trey Lyles or related to him. What a jerk Lyles turned out to be; I pointed that out near the end of the season and people got on my case for that.
