I agree that I want the Jazz to resign Hayward and some people have lost perspective and are hating on Hayward too much (so much that I am pretty sure some of those are joking and/or trolling).
The part in bold is why I replied because maybe your confused with the Dukie who wore #1 who they had to hide on defense, in fact Hood was used to guard the other teams best player most nights. Now that may speak to why Duke wasn't a good defensive team but at least he has a defensive mindset and want to and just hopefully needs to improve on fundamentals and other coachable things
The only reason Hood guarded the better wing player is because Parker was horrible at defense, and Hood was only bad.
Check out his defensive lowlights from the Draftexpress video…they're pretty bad. Personally, I have a hard time believing he will ever be good at defense simply because he's kinda soft. Really good offensive player, but he plays smaller than his size on defense, and he plays soft. Just my opinion from watching quite a few Duke games.
