SVG is absolutely correct. Last year Hayward had a very nice season, given the fact he was given limited minutes. 44% from the floor, 42% from 3, and 14 ppg in 29 mins, while being forced to come off the bench for big part of the year is very very good. Based on this performance, you think of...

Funny, but rather unintelligent. Perhaps you did not not notice drop off in team performance with departure of AJ and Millsap? And if a 21 year old center is putting up 15 and 7, he should not have his minutes taken by pathetic scrubs who will be off the team next year.

Kanter is a 21 year old big, who was putting up 15 and 7 before Corbin replaced him in starting lineup with Marvin (the same guy he started over Hayward last year). Yes, Kanter has his struggles, but he was not doing that bad for a 21 year old big man. There is absolutely no reason for Marvin to...

That's the risk I am willing to take. Let's secure worst record in the League first though.

MCW couldn't even shoot 40% in College - any word on the success rate in NBA of the 21 year old (almost 22) College players with sub 40% shooting in NCAA? Yes, he is tearing it up now, but he was not exactly a slam dunk selection. Burke is a year younger and outplayed him in NCAA by quite a wide...

Even 4 and 40 sounds high for Hayward. I hope this deal is not on the table. 10 mil per year may not be a MAX, but it is impact player money. Is Hayward impact player? I don't think so. I think he is a solid starter and may become an all star one day. But he is not there yet, and Jazz have all...

We cannot be blowing money on near max contracts on non-star players. We are all looking forward to next year's draft because people expect the current roster to be inferior to pretty much every team in NBA. Yet if guys like Favors and Hayward, who both have 3 years of experience, and are truly...

Look for him to quadruple his scoring average to reach whopping 2 ppg

"Last season Biedrins averaged 0.4ppg and 0.3rpg in 55 NBA games." They sure are going to miss this monster

JL3 is going into his 6th season, and his salary will be $992,680 - for 5 year veteran, not 1.069 mil. Minor difference, but just want to make sure people are reading your table correctly.

Yeah, and I bet he does not even realize it. Both Burke and Shroeder have struggled in SL. It's OK, it happens, it's SL, it does not mean they are busts. But to say Schroeder struggled because he went against well coached Spurs SL machine, and Burke because he is not as good a prospect is simply...

I am not sure CJ will be in the League in 5 years. He still needs to prove he is more than just undersized SG and can play a PG position. He had nice stats final year in College, but that based on the relatively small game sample as he missed most of the the season, and his overall assists...

The PG in question was not just very good, he was far and away the best College player as a sophomore. Look at this list: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naismith_College_Player_of_the_Year. It is a little skewed because a few players that won as Juniors and Seniors are older then their...

Attempt to make a point. Did he also become consensus player of the year as a Sophomore? What is it that you are attempting to convey?

It's OK to be concerned, and it is understandable. But let's not ignore last 2 years of spectacular results he put in either. Odds are still in our favor.

Yes, Burke completely failed in the summer League, and player like crap in each game, there is little doubt about that, and I am disappointed about that as much as anyone else. However, as bad as he was in these 4 games, this cannot eclipse his College accomplishments. NCAA is a tough League...

Why? In the last few years they had trouble getting anyone to participate. Everyone preferred Florida or Vegas. What changed?

You must be completely out of your mind if you believe that. The guy had nothing and using his mafia connections got multi-billion dollar Soviet natural resource for peanuts. Yet you are comparing him to US presidents, who may have had some small backdoor deals here and there at some point. The...

No, but ensures Burke would start.

Let's keep it realistic though - every 5th shot should go in.
