  1. I believe most Jazz fans were disappointed when he left and how it happened. Regardless how it all happened Gordon was a great player and brought effort each night. My guess is that if he could have a do over, he would have chosen differently. I remember Kobe last game when he stepped into the foul lane just encase Kobe missed the FT. I have much respect he had that awareness of that situation.

  2. Things I remember from Hayward
    Missing the national championship buzzer beater banking off the rim.
    D-Will hurling the ball at rookie Hayward.
    Kobe vs Hayward
    Footwork was awesome
    cool surprising dunks
    All-Star
    League of Legends

    Still sad his luck 🍀 was so poor after leaving Utah.

    Bad karma is for bad people. This guy just chose a change of scenery. Hope his next ventures go well.

  3. Many Jazz players have left to go elsewhere thinking they could do better. Many of them ended up like Hayward.
    He can't really expect the fans to like him after all that happened.

  4. Man he’s like a ex girlfriend you ain’t wanna see. I was big Gordon fan even had that haircut but Gordon did the jazz dirty and was shocked to see him on my feed😂😂

  5. The reason Gordon hurt so much was because we had just gotten over the hump and were a playoff team. We had defended him for a lot of years. Also, it hit hard because if we couldn’t keep a white, married, Republican who liked to play video games with a max deal then who could we keep?!

  6. Gotta be one of the darkest days in Jazz history.. the build boards, the stayward hashtags, the chants, the unwavering support throughout the years… all ending because of a piece put in The Players Tribune 😔

  7. I came to this video not to watch, but to comment:
    Betrayward has no place in Jazz History or NBA for that matter.
    He will always be known as one of the “could’ve been’(s)”
    and he gave it up, for what?

  8. Why is the interviewer more obsessed with his haircuts, his glow up, and his appearance?? 🌈 🌈 than the fact that he betrayed jazz fans? “Why did you betray the jazz the way you did?” “Do you regret your decision?” “Do you believe in karma?” Interviewer clearly too young to this organization and attracted to Gordon to understand how burned UJ fans are by him

  9. When Gordon had that nasty ankle injury my buddy said, “Should’ve called Gail!” He left on a sour note but I still wish he stayed on the Jazz. It would have been great to see what could have been.

  10. Thanks for opening up the door for the Don and Rudy era. Although I’ll always wonder what a lineup of Rubio, Mitchell, Hayward, favors and Gobert could have done.

  11. Loved Hayward when he played in Utah! Hated to see him go to Boston, but I grew up a Celtics fan before there was a Utah Jazz. Always thought there was a little too much hate thrown his way. And I was sad to see his injury derail his B-ball career somewhat. Wish he would have stayed, but would we have gotten Donovan? I think Donovan would have broken our hearts just like Hayward had he not been traded. Wishing Gordon all the best in his storytelling. Here’s hoping he does make family friendly movies.
