    The first one really did not look like a dunk so much as a layup, but darn good effort by Gordon Hayward. For a second I thought they were full-court shot attempts.

    Yeah yeah yeah. I've heard it. Except 2 of our best 3 floppers are hurt. The post was about AK. He's still an all time cake-taker when flopping is considered.

    He can learn quick, but he will not make flop-allstar, his team mates are light year ahead of him.

    Why are there no videos of Chandler Parsons blocking shots?

    He isn't better than Parsons. Defensively Parsons is superior, offensively they are relatively similar.

    Better free throw shooter and anywhere inside the three point line, but not a better 3 point shooter.

    Hayward is a horrific 3 point shooter, whereas Parsons is a horrific free throw shooter.

    Parsons rookie season is looking much more promising than Hayward's, although that could be attributed to the fact that Parsons has a couple of years more college experience than Hayward.
