Both were signed to a vet min. Would you have preferred Smooce to have remained in Houston or happy with the reunion of experienced defensive head of Chuck?
Basketball talent? jsmoove >>>> chuckwagon Locker room & leadership? chuckwagon >>>> Jsmoove Two completely different players signed for two completely different reasons.
JSmoove of course. But Hayes will play some vet leadership role. If Jsmoove had stayed, Terry might be back already to take that leadership.
Obviously Josh Smith is a better basketball player than Chuck Hayes. However with the addition of another play maker in Ty Lawson, I'd rather have someone like Chuck Wagon, who doesn't need the ball in his hands to make an impact on the team.
Is this a video game or something?? If J.Smith isn't here, It has to do more with D.Mo, Jones and Capella. Not because of Hayes. Smith wanted a bigger role, Hayes knows his role and will exceed your expectations. I'm very happy with the chuckwagon signing. But if I was playing a video game..... yeah I'd take Smith.
Josh Smith! I would have done everything possible to keep the guy. What he brought to the table could not be measured by graphs and charts. The chemistry he had with Dwight was just outstanding, except for the falling on Dwight's leg. Yes I would have taken Josh over Terrence Jones as well.
