Forgive me if this has been posted earlier in the thread (I’m too lazy to look through it), but I already have serious questions about Hayward’s future in Boston.
His absence has allowed Tatum and Brown to thrive and quite frankly, at this point I’d probably rather give minutes to those 2 at the wing positions. Plus, we know Ainge has ZERO conscience when it comes to the cutthroat world of making deals in the NBA.
Hayward might be turning into a really nice trade chip for Boston. It certainly seems like Tatum and Brown have a higher ceiling than G-Time while being considerably younger, not to mention much cheaper for the next few seasons.
2 things give me a serious revenge boner right now: 1- He shafted us for a team that probably doesn’t even need him, and 2- His absence this season has probably accelerated the growth of not only Tatum and Brown, but our beloved Donovan Mitchell as well. I find it hilarious that if Gordon was to never play another minute in the NBA, his legacy would be making teams/players better by simply not being around.
