He's one of the best NBA journalists in the world. He posts some great content on Grantland (great website altogether), and I cannot think of a well-known national journalist who knows more about our team, and our players than him.





But Cheesus H Christ, the dude is an absolute prick. I have yet to read more douchey tweets on any other journalist's account. His consistent condescending, put-you-down attitude, and superiority complex is humorous-- but unfortunately annoying as well.
 
If I wasn't in class, I'd post some of his tweets. Read them if you wish.


He said that 50% of the things that Jazz fans tweet about, is George vs. Hayward.

Yeah pal, as ****ing if.

Maybe a bit high. I'd say 40% is George/Hayward, 40% is "Corbin Sucks" and 20% is completely unrelated to basketball.

If we're basing it off last year, its

40% Al sucks/Play Kanter and Favors
30% Corbin sucks
10% Millsap is inconsistent
20% how good is the Core4, some of which would fall under Hay vs. George
 
Actually, George Hayward thing wouldn't be over 10% in the way it appears to me. Maybe he is the one who is into this issue and keep using selective perception through Jazz fans' tweets.

It didn't draw my attention either and i dont see why he finds these two players incomparable. Jazz fanz got pretty good damn reasons to compare Hayward with George;

1. One of them drafted one spot earlier than the other one.
2. They're playing at same position, they're at same age and they have about the same size.
3. Last season George played 9 minutes more and attempted 4 fg more. Per 36 they got pretty similar numbers.
4. George had a bigger role in Pacers than Hayward had in Jazz. With vets gone his role will increase and this year he will take more responsibility. And as a bonus no more Alfense this year.
5. George's coach is Vogel and Hayward's coach is Corbin. Responsibility is not for only player to take its also for coaches to give and Hayward definetly got a disadventage here. We know Corbin's unreletless love for the vets. While Corbin giving much more minutes than they expected to all goners, Vogel was trying to create a dynamic/young, contentious college like team in Indiana since day one.


So yeah i agree with he is just being a prick for mocking questions about George/Hayward comprasion, they're closer than he thought and its definetly a worth to talk topic. So Jazz fans should keep tweeting about it insistently and increasingly.. %50 is not good enough.

Ur wrong George> Hayward just becuz. Wing players are who they are after 3 years in the league. All wing players grow at the exact same rate.

Futurama had the most accurate social commentary on twitter I have ever seen.




"There's a twit now."
 
If I was getting paid good money to basically be a sports fan on a message board, I'd be a cocky SOB as well. You should see the guy that gets paid to oil up Kate Upton. That guy is completely intolerable!
