The Hayward saga gets weirder everyday... by mid season he will demand a trade back to Utah.
Did anyone catch the salt DL threw low key at Hayward last night. When asked to talk about it on the SL he just said we love Gordon Robyn and the girls wish them the best... abruptly stops and just lets it hang there as if to say and that's all I have to say about that. He is a super pro and is clearly feeling completely burned by it... wants to throw Gordon under the bus but his class won't let him.
This is a big deal. Picking up crowder allows us to pivot really well.

Is he from Boston? They are easily provoked. It's been fun watching them try to go at our reporters.
its not happening

No hes not a Boston reporter, his name is Brian Geltzeiler with Hoops Critic. He believes Gordon asked to be traded to Boston last summer. I think he's now making it known that he reported that a year ago now that Gordon did go to Boston. I know that DL denied that report last year and was upset by it.

From my understanding they HAVE to trade 1 of those 3 guys. All the other players they could release leaves them 300k short of signing Hayward.

Opinion or report?
Perhaps what is happening is that Boston and Utah have a trade lined up but Boston is seeing if they can get a deal they like more from someone else before they pull the trigger?
A feeling or are you seeing something?
Logic and common sense.
either this is really happening or jazz trying to make us hate haywood even more.
i am cool with both

I would assume this is the point of contention:
The Jazz want Jae Crowder, but are only willing to give up a lottery protected 1st.
The Celtics think they can get that from a different team, and possibly something on top of that (like a young player on a rookie deal), so they are probably trying to get Utah to give up the pick with less protections.
The Celtics are now weighing their options and will almost assuredly find someone to deal with them.
Why wouldnt a team like Denver give up Juan Hernongomez and Mike Miller, along with a protected draft pick, to get Jae Crowder? Mike Miller is a non-guaranteed contract, so I think they can do that deal to free up space.
Or they could give up Trey Lyles or Tyler Lydon along with Mike Miller. They have so many young guys on rookie contracts they can easily deal one, attach it to Mike Miller, along with a protected pick and instantly do a better deal than anything the Jazz would willingly do.

No, I think the Jazz are trying to get Crowder and they talked about it, just both sides couldn't agree. Maybe the Jazz end up with Terry Rozier or something like that, idk.
