Don't throw Hayward any more ally oops.

I'm serious. They tried all through preseason, and it didn't work, and then he gets injured trying it five minutes into the season.

They also kept trying to post Hayward up during the preseason and that didn't work either.

Hayward is a dead eye three point shooter, not Greg Monroe.

Regarding the deadeye shooting, are you sure you've seen Hayward play?

I know the alley oop gets a lot of oooh's and ahhh's, but for these guys who are world class athletes, it is actually a very fundamentally sound play.

It’s also a play that Snyder used with Hayward a lot in Utah, with GH cutting backdoor to the ring and receiving oops

Unless Lebron and Crowder decide to injure you.

I can read on the web that he hit for 39.8% his last year in Utah. That’s pretty good.

You could always elect not to throw it unless he shakes off his defender and there's no/late help coming. Also Hayward can always shoot a layup off the catch instead of dunking the oop. I'd say keep on running those plays but don't force it.
