EDIT: he deleted the ones saying he had no problem leaving
For some reason, Boston fans cheering for Hayward doesn't surprise me
he deleted the tweet where he said he knows he'll be appreciated elsewhere
Boston fans saying they want to replace him with Hayward in the off season
WHY SHOULD HE?
Considering they play the same position, I can see why he feels a type of way. Durant is different, he knows Durant is better but he probably thinks he's better than Heyward. In reality, he's not off by much. Heyward can score and create but Crowder is a superior defender, superior intangibles, does the little things, has high BBIQ and has great hustle tendency. To me, it's a sign of disrespect towards Jae. You know Avery or Thomas isn't leaving the starting five.This will probably get a lot of daps but no, they're cheering for him because he's gonna be a free agent in the offseason and many think the Celtics have a chance to sign him. Same reason why Durant was getting a bunch of cheers when he came to Boston last year. Just kissing ass early
The funny thing is that even if Hayward doesn't come to Boston, Jaylen Brown is being groomed to be his replacement anyway.
I see why he could take it as disrespect but honestly I think he's overreacting
He's not mediocre, he's a solid player and a good role player. These guys can't be understated in the new NBA. They have a lot of value.for such a mediocre player he sure does complain a lot

Jaylen is three years away. With great development, maybe two. He's really raw.
