share your current thoughts about whether Taylor Hendricks is an NBA player

We have 85 billion young guys on our roster and have four picks in the next two years, he's at least 4-5 years away and has the upside of a bench big man. There's no reason to stick with him.

If dude can stay healthy some of these posts are gonna be hilarious to look back at.
 
I hope it works out. He was getting blown past by every single player on the perimeter. That, and the combination of him shooting so poorly, made him DNP and now in the g league.

All and all, it his up to him. There is a realm where his leg is so jacked, he'll never be laterally able to defend.

What I hope he does (and cody) is take it really seriously going forward. They are on the outside looking in now. I would be hitting the gym every single day, making sure everyone knee about it, while shooting hundred of shots from all over.

We can't keep all the young guys. That's not an opinion, it's a fact.

So yeah, Hendricks may turn into an NBA player at some point, but most likely that won't happen on the Jazz.

Sure... I think Cody far and away is the first I'd let go. We may not have a pick this year so the conversation should probably wait for a year. As a rookie Taylor was playable in a "this is a fine player to have as a rotational wing/big" way. I think by end of season he could be close to or better than he was as a rookie and next year you'd see a jump. Like yall saw how bad Key was last year right? Should we have thrown in the towel last season when he was years away?
 
I guess I thought more people had reasonable expectations for what this year would be for Taylor. This is honestly exactly what I expected... especially first half of the year. Would love to see the shot fall more but inconsistent role and tiny sample size so meh...
 
It’s time for yall to believe. The bus is leaving get on or live at the bus station it doesn’t matter to me.

Jazz gotta hire mom and little brother so they can make every game. He looked good tonight. I have always liked him, but he needs legit game minutes.

He’s shooting 64% from 3 in the 6 games in November. He’s improved his handle and driving. Soon as his legs are back and he shakes the rust the blocks will be back. Wild how insanely impatient some are.
 
Hardy has only played him a total of 270 minutes all season so far. It’s hard to even know much about who he really is or can become.

I get that if he played more, or as the season goes on and is allowed to play more that number will come down. And I get that coming off a broken leg there's strength and conditioning that isn't game ready. But I really need something from the coaches or the team to tell me why he hasn't been getting more consistent run.

Hardy consistently preaches needing better defense and energy, size and shooting and in his very limited minutes Hendricks has done that this season.

I get limiting minutes and maybe missing games for injury recovery. But he has been getting way too many DNP CD. Atleast in the last 2 have he's not losing minutes to Kyle Anderson.

That's a whole nother topic I won't get into, but for a point forward who is supposed to be a ball move/connector, he sure does shoot a lot, and even in his prime shooting was biggest weakness.

I'm prolly overacting sure, but I'm getting tired of yelling at my TV begging to give Hendricks some minutes.... I could type another 3 paragraphs but I digress.
 
Love me some Tay Henney
