http://deadspin.com/bam-adebayo-highlights-are-the-best-part-of-summer-leag-1796622550 Some recognition for the young guy.
I expect Bam to become a fan favorite. First of all, his name is "Bam". Second, he's a dynamic dunker. Third, he's a high energy guy. And fourth, he'll probably put up offensive rebounding numbers. That will probably get fans asking for more minutes for him, but he may not be worthy of it until he learns his defensive assignments and to focus on defense.
He'll definitely get at least 4 playoff games to introduce himself to the rest of the league/fans as well.
Oh well Looking at it from non homer glasses it makes sense One of the issues for the Heat right now is that while our market, culture, etc., gets us in every room it's going to be hard to land a "whale" without having one first All these guys want to be on superteams so you either need a star already or the ability to get two at once. We don't have that right now and I don't really know how we get there. I guess we sign JJ/Waiters to short deals and they become pieces for a trade, at worst.
Mark Bartelstein tells Woj reports are wrong and no decision has been made!!! Are Celts getting Deandre'd here? I don't even care if we don't get him. Give me 4th of July Boston tears!!!!!
Holy Balls, indeed! This would be the best thing to happen to Celtics fans if he didn't end up choosing them.
Regardless of recent reports say of Hayward did not sign with Boston it is where he is heading. If I'm Pat Riley I'm seeing what value there is on Winslow.
Jared Dudley, a Bartelstein client tweets that no decision has been made and that Bartelstein never lets anything leak before all teams informed God give me Celtics tears
George Hill to Sacramento 3yr 57m Z Bo to Sacremento as well 2/24 Also Wolves want Swaggy P GSW wants Omari Casspi
Mark Bartelstein now toTim Reynolds "No decision has been made. We're working on it" Lol How long does it take to make two phone calls to Jazz and Heat? Something may be going on here
Hayward is not that good to be keeping teams in suspense.. youd think we were going after Dirk nowitzki...
Im actually kinds hoping he does... he makes Boston better... does he make the Heat significantly better? I dont think so... we would still need another piece to be a serious contender... and we would be paying this guy 25 million a year ..
More holy balls!!!! Mark Bartelstein now says there may not be a decision today and that Hayward has to "regroup" !!!!
Now Jazz President Steve Starks says that he trusts Bartelstein and Hayward who have said no decision has been made and that they have maintained a great relationship throughout the process Man, somebody hung Chris Haynes out to dry
What is he even doing right now to make you think that? He pitched the best FA on the market and is waiting like us.
This guy ISNT that good to be keeping anyone in suspense. He's not even a top 5 player in his position for god's sakes..
Hayward is definitely a top 5 SF. 1) LeBron 2)Kevin Durant 3)Kawahi Leonard 4)Paul George 5)Gordon Hayward. He is still an ascending player who is entering his prime. He is a capable scorer, defender, and has a well rounded game, and he has shown consistent improvement year to year thus far. It's not his fault that 4 of the best players in the whole NBA happen to play small forward. LeBron, Durant, and Leonard are all top 5 players. Paul George is arguably in that top 5 group as well.
