also think he should be playing the four, but more importantly I think he needs to be on the floor.
Can you explain why he should play the 4? Tell me how I'm wrong here. To play the 4, Hayes would be paired with Val or Hernangomez. What would be the advantage of playing those pairs together?

Sounds as if there are internal team issues, but you'd have to envision Hayes in a Bosh, Garnett, Rasheed Wallace, McHale, Aldridge role. All could play spot minutes at the 5 but were predominately 4s and played alongside traditional centers just fine. You do this because we have a glaring hole at the 4 and a lack of on-court difference makers. You let Billy or Val take the dunker spot and anchor the D and have Hayes cover perimeter on pick and roll where we've seen him excel.
