Hayward or Paul George

Hayward. I don't see much of George play but it seems Hayward is a more well rounded player. Like someone said earlier, PG seems to have fallen off on D, for whatever reason.
 
sign george in the offseason? lmao hill/hayward/george/favors/gobert. Opposing teams would average 80 points on us.
 
George 2 years ago
Hayward today

George progressed faster but hit his plateau
Hayward took a few years but keeps getting better
 
I never thought George was better. George always had more talent around him till now. I think it was his 3rd-4th year Hayward was asked to be a first option. There was a lot of young but not ready talent with the worst pg play in the NBA. Hayward was put in an impossible situation.

IMO, Hayward has always been better.

PG has is a great player and I think he's going to keep being a great player

2-3yrs ago I was all for PG, but today I saw him get frustrated and he totally shut down. Starting to see Hayward much mentally stronger and he has become a great player.

I will take hayward now everytime.
 
Wow - we are WAY past due on someone dredging up a 4 year old thread about how The Jazz FO blew it drafting GH over PG

I think i liked, in order, cole adrich (I think cause we needed a big at the time), ed davis, luke babbitt so im obviously an idiot.
If i remember that draft correctly.

Hated the hayward pick and have kind of been what could be called a hayward hater i guess up until this year. He has won me over finally. Better late than never i guess.


Edit: Not sure if hasaan whiteside was in that draft or not. If so he was my 1st choice. I remember wanting the jazz to draft him with their pick in whatever draft he was in.

Nobodies perfect. I thought Aldrich would be a major bust - like a "in Europe within 3 years bust".

I think it's the intangibles that no one saw coming - nobody figured GH would have a "Jordanesque" like work ethic. If they say they did six years ago they'd probably be lying.
 
I remember when people used to lament the fact that we took Hayward when George was still on the board. And I have to agree that George hit his stride faster and probably was an all around better player early on. I did always feel however that George was too ball dominant and that Hayward was a better fit for us early on even when he struggled more with his offense. At this juncture however, I believe that Hayward is clearly the better all around player. I talked to some huge NBA fans yesterday (Laker and Clipper fans) and they both felt that Hayward is now the better player. One voiced the opinion that George has not been the same since the broken leg.
 
Wow. This thread is hilarious. Yeah, easy to say Hayward now while completely forgetting and dismissing the fact that Paul George snapped his leg right in half not that long ago. Hayward has surely made some nice strides, but I think Paul George hit a snag in his development wouldnt you say?
