Thank you [MENTION=14]colton[/MENTION] for taking the time and effort for doing that. I for one know I wouldn't have listened to the interview but I did read every word you wrote.

Thanks for the transcription, Colton.

Locke said one of Boston's owners told him they were getting Hayward a year ago. Kind of hard to believe there wasn't some kind of tampering.
 
That interview makes Hayward sound like he doesn't give 2 ****. He understands the impact he'll have on the team and the fans, and he appreciates all the Jazz did for him. On the other hand, he thinks Boston is pretty cool, and his gut feeling was to bolt.

It just makes me hate him even more.
 
Good lord people take this all too personally. The young man had major career decision to make and he chose to go elsewhere. I don't see why people cannot respect his decision and his freedom to choose by any criteria he wants. I think he did it in a fair manner and it's his choice. I hope we can all be accorded some respect and freedom when we make a career shift.

I don't see why you cannot respect fans decision to be pissed.

Fans may be pissed because it seems he dragged his feet to some extent perhaps possibly costing the Jazz a potential move to soften the blow to losing GH, but other than that, they can't be pissed about his decision to leave. Fans are only pissed because our team, at this point in time, most likely will be worse than they were last year. The rest of this nonsense about loyalty and other various romantic notions about pro sports are naive and juvenile.

Because he was disingenuous, dishonest about it. If he and Bartelstein cared about the Jazz, they would've made the S & T contingent on his signing with Boston. And what a whimp that he didn't let the Jazz know so they could put their energy elsewhere. Totally uncaring for the people who cared for him.

Yes, but he knew he wanted out. Why this big act. If he were a man of character, he would've let the Jazz know much earlier.
