    Man Zach Lowe losing his shit over the Thunder acquiring Hayward as their “missing piece” just keeps aging worse and worse lmao

    I love that Mitch Kupchak’s final move ever as a professional GM was clowning Sam Presti

  3. I know it happened when he was on the celtics but I’ll never get the image of that man’s ankle breaking on tv out of my head.

    Glad you were on our team, Gordo. Loved how you played. Best of luck to you and your lovely family.

    His descent this past season from solid NBA player to completely washed within a matter of months was one if the quickest I’ve ever seen. I suppose that’s injuries for you

  6. Considering contracts in the NBA right now, kinda wild. I know dude has some serious cash already but he could still fetch 10-15mm in today’s pay to be a role player on a good team.

    Was never super excited about having him on the team. A guaranteed shortened season every season. But glad to see he had somewhat of a long career. Now I believe only Paul George remains from their draft class.

    Can we consider him as our ‘best glue guy who failed’? Or is it still Boris Diaw? Lol

    Kind of crazy considering he was still a decent starter for a decent portion of last season. I imagine getting glued to the bench on a contender was a gut punch though and the constant injuries/rehabbing has gotta be a killer. He had a great career and was paid handsomely for it though, I really enjoyed the glimpses of prime Hayward we got in his time here.

    Pretty sure he bought one of the huge houses on Carmel CC golf course. Wonder if he’s planning to put down roots in Charlotte.

    No team really could’ve offered him the minimum?

    We had a lot of winning (relative for this franchise) when he was healthy. Wish we could have gotten a couple of seasons where he played 65+ games.
