Could Hayward, Favors, Burks, etc. being out have some positives to it?

Is it possible that when we look back on this injury-laden time(including last year) that we find that the adversity made us stronger? Taking into account our current situation and even last years injuries hasn't it forced everyone to step up their games and given important minutes to guys like Lyles, Withey, Hood, Gobert, Mack, Neto, Jingles, Exum, etc.? Isn't the end-game of winning a title a ways off anyways and could this chance for bench players to get extra time on the court with the extra pressure of carrying the team pay dividends down the line... or is it all negative?
 
Favors is not ruled out.

Overall it is a net negative. But I does provide other players the chance to step up. Like Lyles and JJ.
 
Hayward and Favors? Sure, I can see some value in them missing time because others have to step up.

Burks though? It wouldn't surprise me if people on the team forgot Burks existed sometimes. He really needs to get on the floor ASAP so we can actually figure out what his place on the team is.

Step up? I have more faith in my Jazz than you an [MENTION=1988]Stoked[/MENTION]. Jazz are a regimented organization an players are always ready if needed. We saw this with Jeremy Evans who sat benched for 30 game stretches.

lmfao, hopefully the changes being discussed in rep take place soon and you disappear.

Does your Lilly white *** ever add anything to this forum outside condescending mommy remarks, insults, goodie two shoes nonsense, an generic comments?

I also add infractions and warnings. Cheers!
 
No. I really see no positives in this. It sucks and it sucks bad. I just wish we'd be healthy for once. I want to see what this team can do in full strength. I'm sick of whatifs and maybes, dependent on our injured players.
 
We're at the point where I'd rather be healthy so this core can actually get used to playing with each other. This team fully healthy and functioning as a cohesive unit would be able to play with ANYBODY in the league. I really do believe that.
