What's new

Rumor: Jazz prepared to match 'any offer' for Hayward.

I think the Jazz should pay Hayward the max to apologize for making him play under Corbin. It is the least they can do.
 
If you believe Hayward is just a role player, then you don't match the offer.
If you believe he hasn't tapped his full potential (as Cleveland does), then you let him work with a great player development coach in Quin Snyder and realize what a lousy *** coach Corbin really was.

I agree 100% - the other thing we have to look at is how the team has been built so far (and the guys we've been interested in). We have a wing lineup that is multi-positional (Gordon SG/SF, Exum, SG/PG, Burks SG/PG, Hood, SF/SG, etc.) and potential a 3 man starting lineup (Trey, Exum, Hayward) that can all distribute to a very high degree (5+ assists per). If this new "Motion Offense" is meant to function on ball movement, you also risk losing one of the best guys to fit the mold you would want at the SF spot.

Especially if the Jazz run an up-tempo offense. That's Gordon's strength, not the coma-inducing system Corbin favored.
 
David Locke was on the radio and about lost his mind. He was being asked about the contract and how Jazz fans should react.

He said "how about we do something new and like our players" and was about to blow a gasket but Scott Garrard stopped him.

Locke can be such a fool. Sometimes he has good points but when you disagree with his analysis he loses it.

I think that hayward is the player on the current team that recieved the most benefit (minute and opportunity wise) under corbin..... therefore i think we know more what he is than any of the other jazz players.

What is he? A pretty good role player that should not be paid a dollar more than 12 million per (still overpaying) that could easily be replaced
 
So... If Cavs sign Hayward to Max. Pacers signed CJ and Croatian forward Damjan Rudez... Is it better for the Jazz to try to pursue Lance Stephenson? Would he even realistically consider the Jazz?

I realize he has had some moments where he isn't the sharpest cheese in the fridge but he is a talent and maybe Quin can rope him in a little.
