Dear mister Favors. Please ignore all these ridiculous rumors of you being traded. They are complete lies made up by bad reporters and bad Internet posting people.


I vote to have any and all Derrick Favors rumors to be banned from this site. Folks, this is serious business. Do not give credence to this nonsense if you want to have a good basketball team for years to come. We do not want to piss Favors off. There is a very good chance he reads this board at least every once in a while. It's the main Utah Jazz forum out there.

Mods please sticky this if you have a brain.

Everyone else with a brain, please cosign on to this.

Thank you.

This is one of those scenarios that at first read stings. I like Favors. If a trade happens it had better be for the best - to lose Favors to a player who doesn't pan out will lead to us wanting to crush DL. But so far DL has been wise and so if it happened and we drafted a player with more of an impact than Favors it would be a good trade. Having said that Favors wants to play here, is a good guy, is still young and so I'm HOPING it doesn't happen. Perhaps this is all merely talk as it was last season to confuse the other teams.
 
Favors is untouchable for anything other than an established young star on a favorable contract - because that's exactly what he is. There's not a single player in this draft worth Favors strait up. Not even Towns. Last year, I'd have considered Wiggins or Parker, but the Jazz are far better off with Favors and Exum. Don't blow that up now.
 
IF we traded Favors for the #4 pick, that would be the riskiest move the Jazz have ever done. I don't think even DL has the stones for that.
 
Does Favors read these forums?

Mr. Favors,

I have the deepest of love for your game, and what you bring to the Utah Jazz. However, please consider a change from iPhone to any one of 144 Android phones.

Thanks,

Porzingis will **** all over this team
Favors wil **** all over this team if he's traded to a different one.

Unless AD, LBJ or Curry are coming our way, you just don't trade a guy who is as young as Derrick, is improving every single year, loves the team and took a discount to stay. If DL or Snyder are behind a trade off Derrick, I'll turn in my Jazz card. And I'm dead serious about that. I will get rid of my Jazz gear and start wearing Warrior gear as soon as I move up to northern CA.
 
I'd trade Favors for any of the following players:

Anthony Davis
LeBron James
Russell Westbrook
Kevin Durrant

That is all. Thank you.

Nobody needs to get worked up. It's funny, though, that as soon as a few reporters say they're convinced everyone then goes along with the group think. Unless DL is incompetent, which perhaps may be, seeing the sense in these situations is like people thinking they see things in Magic Eyes, or people thinking abstract art is actually artistic, simply because everyone, for whatever reason, is raving about it and saying it's "genius." We have a core of players who are starting to mature. We're coming out of rebuilding, not heading into it. We're not moving an established piece for a developmental gamble. We sure as hell aren't trading two birds in hand for a pretty one on a telephone pole.
 
I'm singing this. Absolute BS if you trade him away. Don't you dare **** with that core. We are building a destiny here. And Favors is the focal point of that imo.
