IS THE MAN!!!
OMG what a game he do.
He steps up, his game in becoming a true impact player. No doubt about it.
What a game he do is right. KOC said two years and evaluate then, but I’m going to call it right now: Great draft pick.
Whatever happened to Jazzman?
Isnt it funny how well he plays at the SG position. I say keep him there and fill in around him. What say you Jazz nation? Not saying he cant slide to the SF in certain matchups, he just seems to excel and make the whole team better from the SG position. Team play may have something to do with the Guard assist ratio going up when he is Playing SG.
I personally like Hayward at the 2. It opens up more options for our bigs. Carrol is a great 3 and in certain matchups Millsap can play ther too allowing Favors and Big Al play 4 and 5. We seem to pass a lot better that way. I was thrilled to see Big Al dish to Millsap and Millsap dish to Favors for the finish vs Houston. True team ball comes when all the best players are in it together rather than trying to score individually to justify their playing time.
Is “Captain Jedi”!
Can’t wait to see Hayward next year. Last year we saw a few breakout games which showed lots of his potential, this year we’ve seen many games that show who he will be all the time, and hopefully next year he’ll just be super consistent! If he keeps improving like he has and coming into his own, I can really see him averaging a good 16-18 points per game and 3-5 assists per game and 5-7 rebounds per game. He’s shown he has this talent, especially being a starter. Now he just needs consistency! Good things are in store for our man Hayward, glad we picked him up #9 in the draft!!!
