Lyles' Rise = Gobert and Favors' injuries a blessing in disguise?

If Derrick comes back and we go on a huge winning streak, sure.

Well, Lyles getting this many minutes would certainly never have happened with a healthy Favors. So it's more of a silver lining than a blessing of disguise, regardless of what happens for the rest of the season.
 
It's good for Lyles in the long run, but for the Jazz hopes for the playoffs this year it has really hurt. I know we are all looking toward the future, but getting some playoff time would really help when it comes to resign Hayward, Favors, etc....

I dont know how you can say that.

If we end up winning a playoff series and Lyles plays well, you would have to look back on this stretch as when he put things together to help the team. Then it would be a "blessing in disguise". If we end up just losing in the first round, or not making the playoffs, then it's just a silver lining.

Right, so we agree? It's a silver lining regardless of what happens.

Players develop 99% in practice and 1% on the court, so the injury/pt is pretty much irrelevant outside building trade value.

No, totally disagree with that. I agree that players develop in practice a lot, but nothing is like playing a real nba game, you cant simulate that in practice.
