    I wanted to mention Colin but feel it's a lost cause with unbending Ham who wouldn't play him with a gun to his head even for 8 minutes against bench players, which at this point is stupid. There's certainly matchups he could handle against lesser skilled big bench players who are just giving us problems because of there size. And if they dumped Hayes to get under the penalty, they'd have to add Colin to an actual spot to be available for the playoffs .... correct?

    i think maybe. i'm not a cap expert to that degree. we have to make the playoffs first anyway, and if jaxson hayes's availability is the answer, i'm honestly not sure what the question is at this point.

    long as we don't promise him the starting role.

    Aside from Unicorn putting him through the basket a couple times, really good game. Focus, a little more focused and actually outplayed Porzingis.




    Career first?

    Hayes was great tonight! There's nothing better than beating the C Bags.

    he's making me rethink the idea that our plan was to just sell him into air at the deadline for the tax savings.

    Yeah, I'd keep him now. He's showing a lot right.

    Elite hustle in the 4th. To the degree that if we won, he gets game ball.

    Hayes matches up well with AD and Lebron vs Denver because it gives you another athletic body to play against Jokic, Porter and MPJ.

    Loved this kids energy and game last night. Really amazing what we see when guys get a little chance. Glad he is making the best of it with all these injuries to the squad.

    There's been matchups and lineups where he's been BBQ chicken, but overall I've liked his energy since Wood went out.



    He's had some really impressive dunks in this span as well.
