Derrick Favors named to All-Rookie second team

Hayward > George

the jury is still out on that one for anybody without homer goggles. George can defend three positions, has range beyond NBA three, and has shot-creating skills. The only edge that Hayward has in PG skills (and perhaps a more accurate shot).

George's defense and Hayward's late bloom this year merit George's selection over Hayward, IMO
 
George had a better overall season. The hype Hayward gets here one would think he is the 2nd coming of Larry Bird.

So would you ever consider playing Hayward at pg?
 
I agree with George being on the second team the one that I would have put Hayward in for would have been Johnson. Were Hayward got better as the season went on getting to the point were he showed he has the talent to be a good player in this league. Johnson did the opposite. Played ok a the start and then good in December. But fell off hard the second half the season. Johnson was given a lot of playing time right out of the gate also. Were Hay didn't start getting good time on the floor until after the trade. I would still rather have Gordon over Johnson at this point though.

The other guy that got shafted that turned it on late but well be a great player and could be a starter for years to come is Jordan Crawford. I think I might have put him in over Hay, Johnson, and maybe even George.

that's why I've been dreaming of scenarios to acquire George... because he could guard the opposing PG while Hay played a PG role on offense. We'd be f'ing huge in that scenario.
 
I still think we should have drafted George... Now I'll wait for somebody to post the Hayward dunk on him that will prove that I'm wrong to think that.. Somehow.

Right now I think ether or on the Hayward/George pick. Kinda like the Deron/CP3 thing all over again. I feel that both players are going to be good. Hard to say that I would want one over the other right now. That could change in the next couple of years depending how both develop.
