Too late.
Jazz control Hayward only in the sense they can match an offer.
Seems Hayward maybe getting paid in the 12-14 range.
I am not a fan of DL.
Remember the Favors press conference when he complimented Favors for wanting to keep the core together, stating they think they will.
What happens..they shop Favors this DRAFT. Nice.
As for Hayward ... he is NOT a #1 option on any team .. at all.
He is a #3 option on a playoff team and a 2 option on a 7-8 seed team. He will get paid.
If the Jazz really wanted Hayward they should have paid the 4/50.
It's all a business.
One moment you state it is a business and then just a second ago you typed that you are upset DL shopped Favors? Which is it? Beside the fact you don't even know what the trade was or what the Jazz actually offered the Cavs or what they offered Hayward. The reports I read (not saying they are accurate) the Jazz gave him a very good deal like you just mentioned. Hayward turned it down. So what do you think is hayward's worth because he wants to get paid as a number 1 option but you say he is at best a 2nd option on a bad team.
I don't think DL is losing any sleep.
