Rockets going hard after Jimmy

Still not an active push. That’s not what happened. The FO ram the idea by Haywood, he gave a thumbs-up as he was out the door.

We could have Dennis Lindsey show up and say, "We traded for Rubio because we thought Hayward would be more likely to stay" and you'd be like, "Nooooo... you're wrong!"

What you said here wouldn't mean the Hayward himself PUSHED for the trade. Even if the Jazz made the trade because they thought it would please Hayward, that doesn't mean Hayward pushed for it. Do you not see the difference?

What I said was the trade happened in hopes of Haywood signing here. You can read my prior posts in this thread to figure that one one.

OK, seemed like you were arguing the point that Hayward actively pushed for the trade...

Unicorns and rainbows to the victims of this tragedy. I mean what more can we do than to wish them unicorns and rainbows?

No. I said the trade for Rubio happened because they wanted to please Haywood and thought he'd sign here (especially after he said he wanted to play on the same team as Rubio). I believe it to be true as I believe the Tribune writer plus it doesn't seem too far-fetched with when they flew Rubio from Spain and had him, Ingles, Rudy and Hood visit Haywood in San Diego along with DL, Snyder, the Millers, Bryant and others. The Jazz were going to do just about anything but in the end it all worked out great.
 
That unicorn stuff was intended for a different thread...
 
Your naive of you think Boston is going trade Hayward ever. Only team I could ever see him go to is the Pacers. Brad Stevens is not going to let him leave

31.2 / 32.7 / 34.1 million for the next 3 years. If Danny Ainge gets an opportunity to trade for AD and is able to move Haywood instead of Tatum, Brad Stevens will be driving Gordo to the ****ing airport. You can take that to the bank.
