it would be nice for Gordon to get some respect. He’s certainly has improved and becoming more confident this season, especially since returning from his shoulder injury.

Hayward’s turning into our consistent guy and I hope to see him in the white shirt for a long time. The guy’s fearless.
I love Hayward’s game but… Is he a 6th man??? I dont think so, for me a sixth man dont finish closer games, same for Carroll, its a very interesting discussion.
I think he’s one of the top 5 sixth men out there but Crawford is the sixth man of the year JR Smith is a good sixth man but not consistent I’d rather have Hayward over any of them.
@ Guido Crawford and Smith both finish games. But the difference is Hayward is on his way up and there both on there way down and he shouldn’t be a sixth man him and Burks & Carroll could all help out our slow starts
Pg Burks
SG Hayward
SF Carroll
PF Millsap
C Al
Sixth Man Favors in for Al at the 7 minute mark
But that’s in my dreams it’ll never happen.
Hayward is gaining confidence, but lord he makes me nervous when he drives to the hoop. It gives me that same feeling that Kirlenko used to put the ball on the floor and drive to the hoop. Kirlenko would often lose his dribble and turn it over. Hayward has a tendency to get stuck when he drives. Luckily lately he’s been getting some unwarranted respect from the refs and getting bailed out with a foul call on his erratic drive to the paint. He needs to learn to finish at the hoop! He misses layups and contested shots at the rim way toooooo often. He is really continuing to kill it from long range and his free throw attempts and makes are gaining ground.
He definitely deserves consideration for 6th man, however Crawford and Ginobili are still far ahead in that regard.
Commissioner Gordon is the hero that the Jazz deserves and needs right now
