This Will Change Your Perspective On Killian Hayes.. 

💀☠️ fits perfect don’t forget Jabari smith 😂

Crazy how they’ll still make the playoffs this season though 😬

@@elitetv1735 hell nah

@@bxmo7077 the deepest team in the league have always made the playoffs, we are definitely the deepest team in the league when our 11 and 12 men is Landale and green who both played meaningful playoff minutes for arguably the 2 best teams out west. Plus Jae’ Sean Tate who wouldn’t even fit in this 12 man lineup.. amen, KPJ, cam, Tari, and landale/green/Tate is our bench

Don't do Van Vleet like that he had injuries and the raptors were garbage despite having talent

you make really good and smart content, I needed someone who could cover the bases on niche topics like this!

you sound like you're from France which would explain your affection for Killian Hayes- hate to break the bad news, but per a confirmed news report today (Monday 7/24/23) popular NBA sportscaster *MARC STEIN* "the Detroit Pistons are determined to trade Killian Hayes a.s.a.p." ...this is some of the BEST news I've heard for Pistons nation all summer long!!!!!🤣😅😂

Hayes should never have started day 1.

Killian's INDIVIDUAL numbers msy not be impressive, but Killian's numbers are ON PAR with KC JONES of the Celtics Dynasty. If KC JONES was good enough to be Floor General of a DYNASTY, then we're SWEATING KILLIAN TOO HARD. What Killian Hayes LACKS isn't a RIGHT HAND or a JUMPER; what Killian Hayes LACKS... IS A BILL RUSSELL.

Lack of summer league and euro cup rlly hurt him in 2020

He didnt play in a lower division league. He played in the first division. Also there was more than enough background on him considering he has been considered one of the best european prospects of his class since he was 16. His game simply didnt translate to the nba. Thats all there is to it. Him being selected in the top 10 was definetly justified

stfu. Killian Hayes is my goat and that's facts. His efficiency from the field is amazing and he just had a 50-40-90 season what u talking about

Exactly

Giannis and Westbrook were picked as projects because they’re freak athletes that weren’t that skilled. The “project” is training them to be more skilled so that it can be combined with their athleticism. This doesn’t apply to Killian at all.

@@obi3924 lol yes it does

" nu uh"​@@lbt782

Except Giannis and Westbrook were able to at least score in the paint and driving. Killian can’t shoot OR drive

No scoring, you mean. At 21 years old, he couldn’t score.

He is trash.

Exactly he’s not a starter type of guy but a backup makes sense if he was under a genuinely great leading point guard his ceiling could raise but he doesn’t have anyone to really learn from

@@calebmoore1861 no he is just terrible. Nobody can help his shooting or the fact he is limited athletically. He just is not an nba player.

​@@calebmoore1861​​to understand why you are wrong, consider Ben Simmons who was the #1 pick in the NBA draft. Like Killian Hayes, Ben showed above average defensive skills for a guard, and flashed elite playmaking. Unlike Hayes, Simmons knew his NBA head coach, Brett Brown, from Day 1 because Brown coached Ben's father in Australia when Simmons was a kid. Ben also had superstar guards like Jimmy Butler and elite 3-point shooters like J.J. Redick on his team to learn from and be mentored by. But perhaps the most profound advantage Ben had that Killian never did is Simmons skipped his entire first year in the NBA rehabbing an injury. That extra year to "just listen and learn" helped propelled Ben the following season to the same "NBA Rookie of the Year" his Philadelphia 76ers predecessor, Michael Carter-Williams won. None of this mattered because of the one main trait Ben shares with Killian: he flat out sucks at shooting and has not improved at it over time. However, because the Philadelphia 76ers front office had issues and had an inexperienced GM who had to make a decision on Simmons, they resigned Ben to a designated rookie max extension. This turned out to be one of the biggest mistakes of "The Process" and many in Philly are predicting it will ultimately be the reason "The Process" failed. Ben averaged numbers so bad last season, he wasn't even worthy of a bench role. The Detroit Pistons do not want a repeat of "The Process, and will therefore not invest in him the way Philly did with Ben. But mostly, what this proves is it doesn't really matter what situation you are drafted into. If you suck at shooting and don't make a serious effort to improve, you will not be a "backup PG" but more likely, out of the league. 🏀

​​@@TuNnLthe biggest main trait they share is lack of confidence and passiveness. You can be a great player without a shot, you can be a great player without aggresiveness. But you cant be a great player without either. MAYBE if youre a rim running big elite defensive big but even the least confident of those guys are way more aggresive than ben or killian

I think the biggest problem with Hayes is that the Pistons don't have any great shooters from three in their young core. Adding Sasser, Morris and Harris to Bojan and Burks will make it easier to focus on his playmaking this year. Cade being back should take some pressure off as well.

I feel the same way his greatest weaknesses are fixable. His shot mechanics are getting better. Learning to use his off hand will unlock a whole game with his handles.

i’m a pistons fan too, just not a fan of killian, i don’t mind though cause we’re not trying to win a championship but this year is truly make or break as next year should be for a playoff push

Love it I too find myself rooting for Killian more than any other piston for some reason If he can just be more confident and efficient offensively then I think we have a winning player

on da downlow n just don't know it yet? smh

Sad

Lmao his mid range is his only shot and he dreads contact.

He’s left handed

😂😂😂

Facts

There are a lot of busts that came out of the NCAA, should NBA teams stop drafting NCAA players ?

Brain dead take. US prospects fail too, and probably at a higher clip lately.

I'm pretty sure Ausar Thompson is a better defender and a better passer already, headed forward.

The Hayes stats r crazy😂

Whats his efficiency. He legit has shouts for the worst player in the league that gets significant minutes

Everyone's perspective is that Killian should be out of the league, my perspective is that Killian's defense alone will keep him in the league for many years to come.

@@ImaBallJunkiethat would be the case if he was even average at any other facet of the game like other players that get signed for their defense but he’s terrible 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

​@@ImaBallJunkieYou have lost you mind Bro. 😂

@@bluesnem8396did you even watch the video?

@@ImaBallJunkie I can see Killian ending up playing a role like Dennis Schroeder had on the Lakers. Schroeder hurt the team's spacing, but his defense and his ball handling were enough to keep him in the rotation, and he even started some playoff games for them. Killian's not as good as Schroeder, but he is, as you said, 21, so there is absolutely room for improvement.

That works for forwards, but killian’s a point guard. As long as he can’t shoot, he’ll always hold back his team’s offense. Ben Simmons had the same issue. With as good as Ben Simmons’ defense and passing was, his inability to shoot 3’s always held back his team, especially in the playoffs where teams would exploit it the most. That’s just how it is in the modern nba.

@@obi3924 Its still works even for a PG, especially for taller PGs. If you see the clips for these video alone, there were 5-6 clips that he should do a 45 cut to counter the strong side double team but he didn't. And as you said, it's modern NBA, which is positionless, which makes cutting roles good for everyone even for smaller players. Yes he still needs to improve his shooting but shooting isn't the only answer to his lack of production because if you watch the clips, he is not a good off-ball player.

@@obi3924 Even simmons do great cutting, the problem for simmons is he cuts just to pass not to shoot. Even the most viral clip of simmons passing the ball, that was a great cut he just didn't shot the ball.

Let’s keep that in context. The player he hit in the back of the head pushed Killian into the Piston bench while they were both running for a loose ball.
