“Just understanding going from losing to winning, man. Whatever you gotta do to get over that hump to win, I’m all for it. I don’t care if I gotta play in the dunker every night, if I gotta set screens, I’m all about winning.”
so... is Terry saying he wasn't willing to do those things for us? you know, share the ball, hustle, defend... no wonder cliff made a comment about finally having guys who try on defense. we all knew terry could defend better if it was a priority for him. so happy we cleared that salary and got a pick. never gonna win anything with terry and gordon as your team's vet role models.
Terry and Hayward were awful role models. Terry is super immature and Gordon just gives zero f***s.
Hayward quote at 0:42 onwards
"I learned from Earl Watson. The NBA is a grind, there a going to be LOTS of games where you do NOT want to play the game. For whatever reason, your body's not feeling it (lol), you've got stuff going on at the house (gaming, chess, family problems), whatever it is and you gotta be able to turn the professional switch on like it's a job and you gotta perform whether you feel like it or not. That's what I try to tell the young guys, turn on the switch lets get it done."
LMAO. "The NBA can be a bit of a pain in the ass sometimes guys, just try to be a pro if you hate playing like me". Can you imagine Kobe saying this to his team mates back in the day? Earl Watson what a great vet though lol.
The guy is/was mailing it in so hard the last few years and is obviously so jaded from doing this for too long. The money is too good to pass up though. Hayward is that guy that's been in the same job for 40 years, hates it but won't leave until his extra pension matures.
Thank God he is gone. I have no doubt he was dogging his rehab and/or misleading medical staff about his progress to avoid playing some games. Look at the history of how many times he was out WAY longer than a normal prognosis for that type of injury. Also just the insane regularity of him getting injured. Hayward was taking sickies for sure. Actions>Words
