2016-2017 Gordon Hayward Thread (We Did It Guys! Fireworks!!!)

[Surferdad]

Word from on high says he is still deciding

Don't need any word on high to know that.  He is still deciding until...he decides.  After the last pitch from Utah, he will make his decision, make some courtesy calls, inform Ainge, and everyone will know right away.  No reason for anyone to hold back at that point.

saw where Hayward told the Jazz he wanted to play with Ricky Rubio..then jazz traded for him..

I think Gordon Hayward is smart and I think he will make the right decision. I don't think his wife wants to live in Utah any more but the other two teams are on the east coast with a lot to offer. Basketball wise it makes sense to leave the Western conference. I know it's hard to leave your friends but when he gets away from them today I think he will make the right move. The right move is Boston.

Hayward meeting with jazz still ongoing

And unfortunately it's "going well" 

Who is in the meeting texting people updates?  I don't buy into any of this, all just entertainment that even folks like Woj are feeding into. 

If he wants to win, he'll come to Boston.  If he wants to stick with his buddies, make a bit more money, or be a large fish in a murky pond, he won't... but then we wouldn't want him anyway. No sweat off our collective potato bag. 

Every report at each place was it is going well.

IT would be awesome if we ever got a report saying it was horrible. Like they ordered sushi for lunch and everyone got sick.

If that's their best effort, we got this.

Hayward seems like a smart guy. What can the Heat or the Jazz realistically sell him on as possibilities to improve their teams going forward? He knows he wont win with either of their rosters. Their options to improve look highly limited, especially Utah after trading for Rubio and signing Ingles

Yeah...If he wants to play with that guy, in the West, with that roster...oh well. his loss.

At least KD went to a good team

Unless you're signing DeAndre Jordan...

Won't we not have any cap space by next year because of the extensions of Thomas, Bradley and Smart?

It depends on if you extend them or renounce them as well as if we sign anyone for too long this year. It won't be max money but darn close to it.
