Gordon Hayward

Pretty much won the game for the Jazz tonight. Outplayed Kobe, made the winning free throw and played good defense on the last shot.



Signs of life!



Why haven't the rookies been playing more, again?

Hate it when I go to espn.com to see highlights and it's all Lakers, then at the end "oh, but they came up short and lost the game." How does the winning team not do anything worth showing on the highlight reel?

What has ESPN said about THE JIMMER winning the Naismith award?

Video of Elder Hayward throwing it down (notice Kobe whining like a baby because he got screened):

Eh, all the Laker starters played under 35 mins for the game... I want to see Gordon play as well as anyone, but this game doesn't mean anything. It doesn't show me anything.



And it's not like it's hard to posterize Kobe. He's an average defender, nothing more. And he's nearly 100 years old. Whatever energy he has left he saves for the offensive side of the ball. He is the Jimmer of the NBA.

kobe doesn't play D?

yeah, that was last year. Kobe is a different player this year.



He has been a great defender. He is now a "good" to "average" defender depending on the night.
