Would you forgive Ainge

[Watcher]

I assume there was massive tampering by him and Brad... I hate everyone involved there, but I support the Hayward to Cleveland trade. Would be great to see him Hill and Hood reunited and for his "mentor" to turn his back on him. I would love for him to experience NBA loyalty at its highest level.

I doubt Cleveland will re-sign Hood, though.

He's doing his job. Nothing to forgive.

And yeah, Gordon probably partially went to Boston because of Brad, but he also went to Boston because of Boston. They had a really talented team, played in a weaker conference, and were set-up amazingly for the future. I dont think he foresaw having a season ending injury in the first 5 minutes of game time.

I'd still be pretty shocked if they traded him just because I dont think he has enough trade value because of the injury and he fits the team perfectly, but I guess the Lebron scenario is possible.

And if the situation was reversed we’d be stoked! That’s just life...connections matter. Again, you can be mad at Hayward, maybe even Stevens, but Ainge was just being a good GM. I can’t fault him for that.

I agree if you ain’t cheating you ain’t trying... Forgive is the wrong term... nothing to forgive... will I stop hating him... nah but I’ll hate him less.

I think he ends up losing some money in the transaction in part because of the injury... if he had a do-over that 5th year at 45M ish likely looks pretty good.

Check out the ad I’m getting in this thread:

Everyone click it so Ainge has to pay.

There's nothing to forgive. This would be a good outcome for Jazz fans. Anything that keeps Lebron out of the west and away from teams like the Lakers, Rockets and Spurs is good for the Jazz. Also, I would be thrilled if Hayward was traded to the crappy, Lebronless Cavs.

Doubt Hood would want to resign. Lol

Please god, no LBJ in the west for god sakes!! Though it would be fun to see The city of Cleveland squeal once again just stay in the east please

I would enjoy seeing Boston trade Gordie for either LeBron or Davis. And I really hope LeBron stays in the East unless he decides to become a member of the Utah Jazz. So he needs to stay in the East.

No. I would laugh my *** off at the situation Hayward put himself in though.

I don't think Hayward is tradeable this year. I don't think anyone will trade for him until he gets another season under him to prove the ankle is fully recovered.

And the answer is No, I want Boston to get stuck with that long Hayward contract for the rest of the years.
