Can the Hill/Hayward combo get it done in the playoffs?

[akirac73]

The last 5 games where Hill/Hayward was in the lineup vs. a Western Conference Playoff team:

1/08/17 at Memphis
1/23/17 vs. OKC
1/24/17 at Denver
1/28/17 vs. Memphis
2/13/17 vs. LA Clippers

Jazz 0-5
Average Score: Jazz 86.8, Opp 95.6
Hill: 12.6 ppg 34.3% FG
Hayward: 13.8 ppg 30.7% FG

Seems like our two stars fail to show up when needed against our Western conference playoff competition. Against the east, Games where Hill/Hayward both play, the Jazz are 5-1.
The overall Jazz record is still pretty impressive, but all of these losses and bad performances vs. playoff teams is an ominous sign...

I guess we will see when we play in the playoffs a few months from now.

Unfortunately not..
We haven't a Star, sad but true...

We don't have a top 5 player, but we definitely have 2 all-star caliber players, and a number of good players. Obviously the Jazz aren't competing for a ring, but I think they may be able to "get it done" in the playoffs and make it to the second round.

Simple answer is NO

Hayward is an all star calibre player.

Hill Sucks!!!

I agree, We aren't a competing team..

of course not... They're pretenders not contenders... anyone who says yes has embarrassingly low standards...

Hayward and Hill going 4/23 from the field while the team scores 70 could actually be a blessing in disguise.

This team will be royally ****ed if they pay them both big $$$ on 4 year deals. they'd be better off letting em walk and staying true to their core principals..
