Am I the only one who wants all our young players to get a ton of minutes so they develop and play well but barely lose at the end so our young guys improve but we get a better draft pick?

We all do. But we're not StanOriginally Posted by HornetGuru
Assuming you are right, to date, he was an overreach at eight in 2019. What you are telling me is that unproven lottery draft picks are worth more than a veteran eighth pick from two years ago.
I wonder what De'Andre Hunter would be worth?
Wouldn’t say over reach. That draft was kind of meh outside of Zion and Jah. I also still believe Hayes has an enormous amount of potential. Very few people with his size speed agility and leaping ability with that length. If it clicks and he gets stronger he could be deandre Jordan but better. Can’t say he was a reach after he’s played 1 season which was abbreviated and then lands a new coach. I love hayes, not to mention he hustled his heart out.
Last year he had a .176 win share and this year a .148
And if you look at his pet 36 last year he was at 16 and 9 and this year 13 and 11. He will also only improve. Started playing basketball in college when he hit a growth spurt, he was a wide receiver in high school and has Jerry rice type hands

I agree with you. Hayes has definitely shown improvement and he will be fine.
Currently? I doubt it.
Steven Adams (left calf tightness) is available to play tonight

Basketball.
Guarantee it.
Zion getting some shots in early, good to see.
I hope we can find him consistently while he's on the floor tonight. Would make a nice change.
Zion's ability to finish through contact is incredible
By himself, you wouldn't get a first round pick for him right now.
His core strength is extremely elite.
No
No
Pretty doubtful
Likely
Yum
Not to mention the focus needed
Yeah it's a rare amount of decisiveness. Just saying to yourself ''I am making this move, and that's that'' regardless of what your defender does, and just making it work around them. That's intense.
SVG freakin dummy Zion high % and just stays outside at the 3pt line. Team as whole is just dumb.
3'Twaun!
Wait
Zion with 15 points and 5 rebounds on 6/8 shooting in the first quarter. Not bad.
Neat.
Hernangomez getting run btw
SVG saw his chance to get another young player out of the rotation for a vet and took it. Nobody will make him play young guys if he can help it.
The offense is running better without BI trying to forcibly exert his presence. If BI would just playoff Zion and put his ego aside he could actually light the other team up easily.
I can tell by the energy and the flow of the game we got this one
Reminder that Zion's career high is 35
He has 17 in 11 minutes.
Laughing at this lineup, frankly. Just laughing.
Why do they keep playing Melli...dude is worthless.
Don't have a problem with Hernangomez taking Hayes minutes. Melli getting minutes over Hayes is, however, mindboggling. I'm just about over the honeymoon phase with SVG, and tbc, this isn't the reason nor the last straw.
