We won’t look competent again this season until Mark Williams plays.

He is Clifford’s pet…literally. Cliff pushed for him and gushes about him during interviews. Then Frank proceeds to do nothing, now hurt, but he’s useless so no big deal.

Tank on… :rockon:
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

I’d rather try someone like Jamaree Bouyea from g league than Nick. (That was a random name I picked from researching their guards with steals)

What is it about tall guards with zero skill and offensive ability does Clifford love so much? Is he addicted to losing?

You just get the feeling Hayward is going to milk his calf strain for 12 weeks. He's already at a month with no sign of ramping up towards doubtful status.

Would be great if Hayward came back and showed some teams he is healthy right now. We have plenty of shots and mins for him to showcase himself.

Hayward and Lowry making 61 million of 141 million dollar payroll to not play is just so rewarding lol

Then he can get released to pick his own team

Hayward being out this long for a calf strain is so on brand for him.

Randle is out for Knicks. He might miss the remainder of the year apparently.

Shams saying few weeks now. But in Gordon Hayward terms that would be 2 years lol

It is pretty ridiculous that Hayward is missed a month now with a calf strain that was originally timelined as two weeks.

But we know he is one of the slowest healers on the planet.

I'm one thought yeah it would be good to have him back and play some consistent minutes ahead of the trade deadline to show everyone the skills he has. On the other hand they may not want to risk him getting injured again ahead of the deadline

Not only that, but surely he has lost his starting spot to Brandon Miller even if he came back right?

I think Miller would start at 2 over Martin, Hayward at the 3.

Ah right. I still view him as a 3 but that works too.

Hayward has earned zero good will and I sincerely hope we don't buy him out if he isn't traded at the deadline.

Damn we did Batum a solid by stretching and waiving him for this bum. I really hope Hayward is not also the beneficiary of any undeserved favours. He should be on towel cleaning duty with Bouknight until June 30 if he can't or won't play.
