**** on Pull ups this past week.

Do you think it's slanted because of the Spurs game? IIRC he took ****-ton of them, and bricked them all. I wonder what his week would look like w/o the Spurs game..

You're probably right; if we remove his worst game from each week, his stats would be better.

Only reason I point that out is because it was probably Hayward's coldest shooting night of his career. He was missing everything from set-threes to free-throws (things he normally makes @ a high-clip), so thats why (in the case that he possible had a good week for pull-ups, minus the Spurs game) I wouldn't be too concerned about his statistical regression in pull-ups over the past week.

I was just playing. Gordo's still not showing the improvement I'd like to see in his pull up game overall. I don't think his current production on-ball justifies an $11mm+ per year contract (unless someone can convince me he's an elite perimeter defender), even if he has been the Jazz's best all-around player this season.

I think the jury is still out on his pull-up game. Im willing to give him several more games. His mechanics, and body-balance seem good when he takes them. Who knows. It'd be hard to classify him as an elite perimeter defender, but I also feel that a great defensive coach (a la Vogel or Thibodeau) could get more out of him.

Wait what? If he takes them, he should make them....
