Favors does not make us worse. He just doesn't improve us as much as a similarly skilled player at a more complementary position.
Crabbe was a below average player at his best. Better than Williams, but he wouldn't have playing time on our squad.
You're the GM this offseason. What do you do?

When you start saying something worth taking seriously, I'll take you seriously. You've managed in the past.
You mean, was a better player this past year, or has more potential not yet realized? This past year, Favors played better. Mitchell will be great, but last year he was still learning.
I know you are but what am I. Did I do it right?
The difference is that I know I am joking, and you don't know what you are saying might as well be jokes, AFAICT.
But, if your interpretation works for you, fine by me.
Mitchell was the beast of burden who was tasked with digging out points for a team with no spacing and no other players with real scoring talent.
Favors played 23 mpg because the team plays worse when he and Gobert share the floor.
I am well aware that your assertion that Favors is better than Mitchell is a joke.
But keep swinging. Off of me, on me, or otherwise.
Sure. Did you think I disagreed?
Should Mitchell reach his potential, he will be able to carry that sort of load with a greater efficiency. Also, there was redundancy and ineffeciency between Favors and Gobert. Doesn't make my point about Favors playing better last year incorrect.
Again, are you referring to last year, or to the likely trajectory of their career?
Any year. It’s great that you believe that efficiency in a vacuum trumps all other considerations.
You’re free to have your opinion, but I would put money on the table that 90% of professional evaluators would think your point is half-baked with some substantial portion of them actually chuckling.
But that’s all beside the point that Favors doesn’t make this team better, and if the Jazz were going to trade him for something of value, they would’ve done it at some point in the last two years.
