Personally I'd rather have a 2nd Favors than a 2nd Gobert.
I think Gobert is better than Favors, but you need the versatility alongside Gobert.
When Gobert is out, a lineup of Exum/Burks/Hayward/Portis/Favors could just switch everything and still have rim protection.
And more than just me wanting him, I think this is actually who we select. He just fits the Jazz mold of the Sloan era as well as DL's vision.
47% from deep on very limited attempts (.8 per game) suggest he can learn the corner 3.
Also he would give us 4 bigs who can all run the floor at a very high level.
