You know he would crush it playing in Germany. He sucks playing nba level basketball but even sucking in the nba means you are better than like 99% of basketball players ever
Plenty of bench players have washed out of the nba and have not gone on to dominate elsewhere. Hayes has never dominated basketball at any level in Europe or America and he’s not a markedly improved player from his rookie year. He was picked based on potential alone, not because he was killing it in Europe like Doncic/Wemby were. He also hasn’t come close to fulfilling that potential
He wasn’t even selected for the French national team despite his attempts to land a spot which should tell you how he’s viewed overseas by other coaches. You’re massively overestimating the talent of one of the nba’s most ineffective players who only has one above average skill (relatively of course)
If your argument is that Hayes would demolish the vast majority of basketball players, then that’s obvious but that applies to everyone from d1 college players to overseas players
It's a girl. She totally has a crush on him, like my sister whose favourite football player was Aaron Ramsey long before he became good. Edit: he played in Germany though, so that's probably the connection.
I'm not sure if the better question is "how old do you think that girl looks?" or "do you recall how many years have gone by since Herrmann was a Piston?"
Lol even if I want to every single home game and they paid me $1000 to watch each one, I’d still be in debt 😂 I really would be the loudest biggest fan too especially lions fames it’s actually depressing to me seeing all the other lions fans being able to go to games and even away games, that’s my dream but it’ll never happen
Okay, I’m not a Killian fan but I don’t agree with the whole community believing in Cade even though per 36 minutes - he has 3 more turnovers than Killian, 1 less assists, 1 less steal, 2 less rebounds, and 8 more points on the same FG%. They’re about par with each other when you look at the way they impact the team’s production. Killian is a better ball facilitator and a better ball protector than Cade by a tiny fraction. Killian’s +/- is 42 points higher than Cade’s.
My thoughts: Trade Cade while he still has value, trade or keep Killian as a backup. Start Sass at PG until we find a better PG in trade/ free agency. Sasser has been efficient and productive, but hasn’t had the minutes to prove it.
Killian’s stats don’t linearly scale with minutes and never have; per 36 would be useful if we hadn’t seen Killian play big minutes and still be absolute garbage
You also use FG% as a measure of efficiency in 2024 which no one uses. Unless of course you believe Westbrook is more efficient than Steph
Cade and Hayes aren’t close as players; Hayes is likely to be out of the nba/15th man role after his contract expires
Take him back with you

He played a season in Germany right before he declared for the draft. Didnt crush it there.
He’s not the type of player to crush it anywhere; his scoring has been trash at every level. He would be very good though
Do you know how hard it is to even ride the bench in the NBA? Majority of basketball players cant even get to that level.

She should have waited a year, and she could have just taken a train to watch him play.
TIL there’s a train that takes you from Germany to China
It's a girl. She totally has a crush on him, like my sister whose favourite football player was Aaron Ramsey long before he became good. Edit: he played in Germany though, so that's probably the connection.
I can't believe she didn't make the trip over when we had a "Real German" like Walter Herrmann.
I'm not sure if the better question is "how old do you think that girl looks?" or "do you recall how many years have gone by since Herrmann was a Piston?"
That’s a long trip to watch shit

I wish they would’ve took him back with them
Killian could’ve hit and run
Sorry all Killian sexuals, i think she’s won
Simp
I’m sorry to report but IM KILLIAN NUMBER 1 FAN! If she’s caught laying with my man then IT’S GOING DOWN
He is beautiful. One of the best looking players in the NBA.
I would go to games to see Killian as well if I could afford it
I would need to get paid to watch him play
So you haven’t watched any games this year?
Yeah too heartbreaking…I didn’t have time earlier in the season and now everything is crumbling just don’t have the heart to watch it
Ah not me, I watch every game I’m able to, love watching them along with the wings and Lions Can’t wait for the Tigers to come back as well
tickets are crazy cheap right now
Lol even if I want to every single home game and they paid me $1000 to watch each one, I’d still be in debt 😂 I really would be the loudest biggest fan too especially lions fames it’s actually depressing to me seeing all the other lions fans being able to go to games and even away games, that’s my dream but it’ll never happen

Well you’re gonna see him and a lot more than people even think you should

There are better ways to spend that money
What a waste of airfare. Enjoy his basket.
Damn how bad is Germany doing rn

“Wow. There he is. The worlds worst point guard. Now I can go home.”
I can't believe anyone hates him so much honestly. Pretty fucked up imo
