Is hayward freezing out kanter?

IF Kanter could pass, he could be featured in the offense way more. He can't though, so yeah, probably not going to happen.

Kanter isn't even averaging 1 assist per 48 minutes. That is how bad he is at passing, he has trouble lucking into an assist for 48 whole minutes.
 
I don't know if he has been freezing out Kanter. But, in the last couple of games Burks and Kanter have been out playing Hayward and Favors. Yet, it still seems like Hayward is getting every possession during crunch time. I would like to see what Kanter or Burks could do. Hayward has made some clutch shots. But, he doesn't seem that efficient when he is trying to take over. I would have to say that he is a million times better this year then he has looked in the past. So, I will eat my words on him being a complete swing and a miss. He has played up to his new contract this year IMO.

Is passing teachable? Can a players iq increase as he becomes more familiar with the game heading into his early 20's?

Haven't noticed it, but Kanter does usually stop the offense, so you probably don't want to pass to him if you want to run a smooth offensive set. Still a terrible passer and slow decision maker. He is only really good when he is taking his jumper or down low getting buckets.

I think you just describes Favors' play last night.

Kanter has shown occasional flashes of being a below average passer from his current completely horrific passing ability.

Ok..... didn't answer my question but whatever
 
To change the subject a bit, I have seen Hayward stop guys and direct them on the floor as to where they should be defensively. I saw him stop Favors and point to where he should be one time. I don't know how often he's doing this with these guys, but I would be interested to hear if anyone else has seen stuff like this.

I mention it here because if Hayward is trying to lead, and is having a hard time leading Kanter maybe that plays into this elusive "freezing out" theory?

Yes I have noticed this type of thing too.

I really have no complaints about Hayward so far this year
 
Rumor has it that Hayward suffered a devastaing loss to Kanter in League of Legends...their relationship has never been the same since.

Who is an efficient crunch time player? Lebron, Harden and KD are who comes to mind. Or in other words the 3 best offensive players in the league.
