What does Hayward have to do his rookie season to be considered at least a decent pick?

I'll consider the pick a success if he leads D-League guards in overall FG% and hits at least 35% on his 3's. Also, being from Butler, he's must deliver all meals to the Jazz vets in a TUX and always speak with a British accent.

New Nickname for Spencer Hayward. Mr. Belvedere or Geoffery??

What exactly is a stiff about him?

It aint nuthin but a total redundancy, eh? And not only that, but also, too, it's just kinda sayin the same damn thang twice, all over again, for a second time, and stuff.

Once ya done said "white boy," ya done said stiff, too.

Aint that right, Vinny?
 
Well now that I've calmed somewhat I guess like YB, Henry was the SG I would've preferred but (speaking of stiff and Honz, Henry's hands are very large good trait for a bball player) so while I'd like for him to have better numbers then Henry its hard because not all teams and minutes are equal. So I will say as long as he comes in competes hard doesn't back down, proves SJF wrong in that he is a better ball handler and distributor then Mathews and a competent defender (he wont likely be as quick or as strong as Mathews) then I will be happy.
 
The only thing I want to see from him is resilience. When his **** don't work, I want to see that he doesn't care. When his shot isn't falling, I want to see him shoot it. When he gets beat, I want to see him shake it off but have an attitude about it. I want him to break a play when he thinks he has a play he has to make. By the end of his first season, I want to see the confidence in his game that he doesn't just belong, but that he thinks he's better than the guys checking him, whether that's really true or not.
 
I expect him to get minutes early in the season, then Sloan will emphasize what he needs to work on - most likely defense (Sloan does this with every young player) and he will ride the bench constantly beginning in mid-December. Hopefully after the all-star break (when most rookies can bounce back after hitting the rookie wall) Hayward will still be fighting through it and keep improving enough to get himself back into a 9-man rotation towards the end of the year.
