GRIFFIN GRIFFIN GRIFFIN. Cant stress enough on how perfect he is for our system

No doubt, Griffin + Zizic added to this team.  ;D

Even with Zizic off the bench, that becomes a great front court.

add Fultz to that,and watch out!

Hayward over Griffin and over trades.

Younger, more durable. BG's injury history and his reliance on his athleticism to make him special is too risky to put a franchise's future on the line.

As far as trades go, Hayward is for free. I don't get how that can be overlooked.

Hayward in FA, and if you want to make a trade, you still have the assets to do so.

Bradley, Crowder and picks will fetch a serious asset.

Ainge views Crowder very highly to trade him.

And Bradley + Crowder + 2017 Nets Pick for Butler OR an expiring PG13?  :o

Hayward without a doubt. He has gotten better year over year since he came into the league. He has propelled Utah to playoff status this year and has scored over 30 points per game over 10 times so far this season. He is still getting better. With the right players and system, the sky is the limit.

Virtually split between Hayward and Griffin lol.

It's possible both guys meet in the first round too (LAC vs. Utah).

Yeah, that sucks, too, because ideally both of them would lose in the first round to increase the odds of both of them considering leaving. However, at least that way one of them for sure loses in the first round.

Yep. It's possible Clips could drop one seed and then they play HOU and UTAH play MEM. Close race between 4-7.

Hayward has 23 points and 7 rebounds against the 3 seeded Wiz team btw.

I'd be rooting for the Clips in that one.

No thanks to Griffin. High risk, high reward.

Hayward, low risk, almost as high a reward.

Yeah but the more Utah wins the more difficult it looks.

Boston better make the 2nd round at least and hopefully Utah are first round exits.

If Hayward was a PF, I'd be all for it, especially with his history with Brad.

But Griffin actually fits a position of need for us, which is why I want him so much more than Hayward. I just can't imagine us going through another season of such a terrible rotation of bigs. At least Zizic and Yabu will come over next year bringing some toughness with them.

Griffin with Hayward as a somewhat close second.
Isaiah, you were lightning in a bottle.

To be fair, Horford left a team that made the 2nd round last year to join the team that he beat in the first round...

Our team +Hayward is better than Utah right now and that seems pretty clear.

People who don't want Griffin:

He has 36 pts, 9 rebs, 5 asts, and 2 stls tonight going into OT. He's clearly lost a step. ;)

Hayward is no slouch, but Griffin is still clearly better and at a much more critical position of need for us.
