Do you not remember what he did against us almost single handedly? Thats what green nor ab can do. Its what stars in the league can do
Utah main reason for trading him would be he is not going to resign and wants out
Given the fact that I watch every Celts game, and tape the games I'm not free to watch, ummm yeah, I do remember what Hayward did against us. He lead Utah in scoring, and dropped what, 26 or 28 pts? And sorry to burst your bubble-- but Both Green & Bradley are perfectly capable of doing that too. I guess you missed Bradley's 28pt game earlier in the season, or his recent string of 20+ pt games. And as for Green, did you even watch lastnight's game against Orlando? 22pts, 13/15 freethrows, and his 8pt fourth quarter was the only thing that kept us in that game. Or maybe Green dropping 43pts on Lebron & Miami last yr slipped your mind too. But like I said, Both Bradley & Green are capable of playing as well, and even better than Hayward did against the C's.
One big game against the Celtics does not mean Hayward plays like that all the time. He averages 17pts per 36 like Bradley & Green, so if he's a "star", then I guess Bradley & Green must be stars too.
And I never said Utah won't trade him or that he doesn't want out, which may or may not be true anyways. I was just emphasizing the fact that it's not worth overpaying for Hayward by giving up more than he is worth in a trade.
Im talking about clutch baskets. check out the game again. He carried utah on his back in the last 5 min. Scored something like 10 and 2 assist on his own. He has done this a numerous times this year. He has closing capabilities
Dont remember green doing that last. Dont remember ab doing that in a very long time
Too bad Green isn't a member on Celticsblog, cause after his game in Orlando and his game tonight, he would've had some serious thrashing rights on these "can't close / isn't clutch" comments
He's hit so many clutch shots in the past year and a half.
Agreed. Finally another voice of reason. He's been clutch two out of the past three games, and in soo many others before that. Yet there's still people arguing that Green is not clutch, can't close, and is inferior to Gordon Hayward...all this, based on nothing but the fact that Hayward closed out that one game against us.
