The Gordon Hayward Experiment...you know the drill

Well, depends on where I am being deported to.

I like the Russian Roulette option. We spin a globe on both axises really fast. You hit a stop button and were ever it stops is where you go. Anything controlled by the U.S and we just shoot you on the spot.
 
I am building quite an anti-fan club, though aren't I?

It seems like that is your goal, so I wouldn't be surprised. I have no idea who they are or where they meet or what their secret handshake is though. Probably masonic somehow.
 
It is weird that something works and they don't go back to it, at least just to try it. Hayward is tall enough to bother Kobe's jumper more. Maybe this is one of the many secret weapons the team is keeping under wraps until we get deep into the playoffs.
 
I guess other people did cover Kobe , and Bell was having the best success. I didn't see most of the game, so I don't know who else covered Kobe.
 
Begone:
AK was an off the charts defender, with so so shooting ability, 6 11 with the ability to defend paint and perimeter, and good rebounder.
Hayward, based on last season, looked like a good outside shooter, with so so defensive and rebounding ability.

They both are good passers, but Hayward has better ball handling skills.
They both played some SF, but Hayward is a SF that many think should play more SG, AK is a SF that many think should have played more PF.
If they were on the same team, i think Hayward would be the one hitting AK slashing to the basket, and AK would be the one hitting Hayward spotting up for the long jumper, more often than not.

First off, AK was not a great man-to-man defender especially on the ball according to Phil Johnson. AK's strength is blocking shots from the weak side. Secondly, AK is 6'9" and couldn't defend the paint and should have been a better rebounder. Hayward can't shoot to save his life, but he is a harder worker than AK and doesn't throw his arms up in the air as his go to move.

You guys should stop comparing apples and oranges. Hayward is just not at the same level talent wise as AK. He will never be as good as AK is.

Ya I don't understand it either. Hayward played great D on Kobe last year

Stop comparing apples and oranges then.
