Heyward doesn't have a max contract - he's making $3.4 million this year...
http://hoopshype.com/salaries/utah.htm
The Jazz are making progress on a contract extension for small forward Gordon Hayward that would be worth more than the four-year, $49 million deal power forward Derrick Favors received from the team Saturday, according to ESPN.com. Utah has until Oct. 31 to complete a deal for Hayward, who would become a restricted free agent next summer if no agreement is struck by then.
it's the same reason Ginobili has gotten paid so much recently....marketing. Hayward appeals as much to the whitebread Mormons as Ginobili appeals to people who may or may not have come here illegally imo.
Thanks, I hadn't seen that.
I think he would average around 20 ppg, 5 assts, 5 rbds. And his team would definitely be good. If there's something Manu was good at on his prime was at making people around him better.
The only issue with Manu as a main guy is that he in no way could hold up under the physical demands of being a number one option. Having to play 38-40MPG as the first option would have spelled disaster for Manu IMO. He would have been great as a main guy when healthy (not a number one, but a number 2), but that would have been rough on his body.
hey greatyacht, i borrowed your avatar
Duncan and Parker are the only ones that are really underpaid on the Spurs. Thank god for their sacrifice though. It's because of them taking a paycut that the team's able to keep selfish Tiago and Manu content with their overpaid contracts.
You two are so original it's only fitting that you both have the same avatar. Do you live with your Mom too?
no, i actually live with yours.
big sacrifice, tbh.... RC words... amen
If only others could draw as much people to games as Manu, Spurs wouldn't be needing to pay him so much, tbh.
hold up, u think people go to spurs game just to see ginobli?![]()
Not his fault that Duncan is boring and Parker isn't likeable, tbh.
It has to do with Hayward being white, and playing in Utah...those players come at a premium.
Not intended to be a racist comment whatsoever (I am white), but I know how things work in Utah.
Hayward is a good player, but max...not hardly.
Re ed ass take, I understand Manu is your fav player but get his sack out of your mouth. Starting to sound like Kobe s.
I'm deeply sorry, I hope God forgives me.
what spurs fan watches spurs games for excitement? i don't care if they hit mid range shots the whole game. i care about winning. fuk everything else. either that, or u can look at the likes of kevin durant and lebron james shoot freethrows all game.
Get the outta here, Duncan is the only reason they have les and lead them for years to be HONEST. You Argie fans go too far at times, you hate on TIM being boring etc. get the outta here as it shows you are not a fan of the team and just for MANU! Tim is a legend and top ten of all times, stop it. Real bball fans recognize what he is, period. You go root for your one player, to me this is a team.
Duncan is the franchise, DO NOT ever get it twisted sir! The others are good role players and maybe even Spurs legends, BUT TIM is the reason those les hang and rings are on their fingers, he started it all and he is the franchise, period.![]()

Or the Devil if I go to .
