Touches =/= FGA. If you're not creating separation for a shot or getting to the rim, then you're probably not taking a contested fade away unless its the last resort

The problem with Hayward was that he was NOT getting separation because his first step was sluggish & that was also evidenced by getting beat on the other end

He was standing in the corner doing a lot of nothing, I agree. However this is not the first time Stevens drew up a plan to pass him the ball. In other cases he simply did not take advantage of it and therefore role players ended up taking more shots

In the beginning, that was certainly true, he was also rusty. But after around January, right before the All-Star break, he certainly had more aggressiveness, but Rozier, and Morris, (two players seeking viable future contracts,) were playing recklessly and with plenty of tunnel vision.

talk about cherry picking. I've watched plenty of Celtics games this year and they DEFINITELY have tried to incorporate Hayward as the #2 star second to only Kyrie touching the ball

90% of the time Hayward has just not been justifying that level of touches / minutes

obviously if he plays like this consistently it would be justified

Lol

3 maybe, but who is actually claiming he is playing to that value?

Stop trying to create arguments that aren't there. We are all aware of Haywards current output, or lack of. But we are all hopeful and confident he can return to what he was in due time. The signs are there.

Condescending posts like this just make you look like a fuck head

I never claimed to have airline tickets and video evidence that Kyrie was traveling alone, it was a rumor from the beginning, evidenced by a link that was clearly based around hearsay.

When Kyrie left the Cavaliers there was rumors (again not concrete video evidence) that Kyrie practiced in isolation, traveled alone, acted aloof/lack of accountability in interviews.

His behaviors (ie not taking accountability, I don't owe anyone shit) have been mirroring his end with Cleveland.

..... I mean the dude is coming off a broken foot...

The actual recovery time is 12-18 months, and PG-13 even said it took him 2 years to be completely healthy... And we see how dominant he has been this year..

Why are you even here by the way? I don't even get it. Like literally, go away...

So let's say there are rumors for Giannis wanting out.... Do you believe them?

I mean rumors are rumors, and this year the media have twisted player's words so much that it has been annoying as fuck.

which link is this? we already knew Kyrie wanted out of Cleveland the second he knew LeBron wouldn't be resigning. Kyrie is in Boston now, not Cleveland, in case you haven't noticed.
