The biggest takeaway tonight is Jaxson Hayes is unplayable and should be sent to Birmingham

Every year it's the same with him. He has to get benched and out of the rotation before he gets it.

Is it really a takeaway if we already knew that?

You know when Coach Temple has a bigger impact than Jax, then is it’s clear Hayes was worthless tonight.

If Hayes can’t get productive minutes when the team is this short handed then his roster spot needs to go to another prospect.

LOL, he has been benched and taken out of the rotation multiple times in his career. He's never going to get it, he just does not have an understanding of the game.

It makes sense, considering he didn't start playing basketball until his junior year of high school, and then got by for the next three years on his athleticism before getting drafted.

Why are we pretending our guys wouldn't be just as excited in a similar situation?

would they be excited and shite? sure... but you got dudes on the Suns flexing and shite... it's weak... they should feel fricking dumb for being so extra considering they are beating a team without 3 starters, and it's taken them over 3 quarters (and the refs help) to pull away... they should also feel very thankful we didn't have a healthy crew b/c we are the better team, from what i've seen tonight

We could've drafted Cam Johnson instead of Hayes

I obvious wanted the win, but we can’t expect the Pels to get more than a rare win this short handed vs playoff teams.

So Jose wouldn't be doing his normal thing and Zion wouldn't flex after an and 1 in the same situation?

You can miss me with that. It's a fricking game, let them have fun. I hope we would act the same way if we were in their situation instead.

yea, when you can't see the court in a game where its all hands on deck and they trotting out Temple's old, decrepit arse before you, you definitely gotta see the writing on the wall...

and it sucks b/c he seemingly had a lot of promise, and it felt like he was gonna "get it", but he just never has...

It's actually amazing how literally the next 5 picks after Hayes in the 2019 draft are all productive players. We really whiffed with that 8th pick.

If this is the Naji we're getting for the rest of the year, this team is going to be really scary.

Sure, but I think even then we knew that Jax was going to be a project.

Turns out he was just another Chieck Diallo that could run a little faster.
