What's new

Hayward has agreed to an offer with Hornets

If the Jazz match, I'll just have to convince myself Gordon can bring it more often like he did that one game against OKC, when he scored 37 points, including the last 17 of the 4th quarter and shot 13-16. That was a fun game to watch!

I wonder how much uncertainty around contract and extension impacted his game last year. May be he would be more relaxed this coming season, may be having Exum breaking down the defense will give him more scoring opportunities & easier catch and shoot chances, may be Hood & Burke's shooting will open things up for him....

If we had Hayward instead of AK on those teams, how much better would Utah have been? Would the huge contract have been such an issue?
I think hayward would have been a little bit better fit..... but ak was a better player (at least early on when he was gettin 5×5)
So i dont think it would have made a big difference...... though if we had hayward instead of ak, after ak became an injured whiny lil bitch, then he woukd have maybe made us a fair amount better

AK must break Hayward.
 
I'm gonna predict we do a S&T and get a couple ends and expiring ex-Spur Gary Neal back.

For Hayward?
I predict we'll do a S&T of Marvin to a contender. Williams is a great guy and a solid player. I hope he finds a good home (now I'm making him sound like an abandoned puppy). Seriously, I think Utah needs to move forward with Hood as the backup SF and Novak and maybe Murphy get the stretch-4 mins. So let's get assets back for allowing someone to get Marvin.

I'm not well-versed on S&T's under the new CBA. I'm sure there are restrictions on what teams can do.
 
We can't sign and trade Hayward now that he signed the offer sheet.

It's shocking to me how many people don't understand this. I was listening 1280 The Zone on the radio yesterday, and one of the radio guys (can't remember who) was saying the same thing--that the Jazz should do a sign & trade. Sorry, not possible!!
 
We can't sign and trade him to Charlotte, but he could be dealt to another team with his consent.

I don't think so. He's signed a contract with Charlotte, so the only options now are either match or don't match.

That is one of my pet peeves and why I have general disdain for guys like Bolerjack. Some media guys have no clue how this stuff works and just show a general lack of basketball knowledge. It is their frickin job to talk about this crap intelligently.
 
Damn, I (obviously) had no idea. Can GVC or Kenwood confirm if this is true, that we can not do a S&T with Charlotte involving Hayward?
