Sophomore year projection for Favors

[donAZ62]

Kirilenko type numbers -- blocks, steals

I don't know how Favors was used or coached in New Jersey, but if you look at just his games with Utah, his blocks and steals were off the charts for a rookie. The last ten games his numbers per 48 minutes were very similar to Kirilenko in his best years. Rebounds per 48 were also great, as well as his field goal percentage. I'd say his ceiling is sky high if he can cut down on his fouls and improve his free throw shooting.

I see Hayward doing more then Favors next year with a less crowded position, and more playing time.

I would like to see Jefferson traded to improve draft position opening up playing time for Favors the following year. If KOC plays his cards right this could be a very dangerous team in a few years.

Holy crap, if Hayward averages that, then this team will content for titles, no matter who the pg is. That would be amazing.

"Starting Gordon Hayward: 19.3 points, 4.2 assists, 4.1 rebounds, 0.4 steals, 0.3 blocks, 3.5 turnovers."

20, 4, and 4? Those are unbelievable numbers. The turnovers are a little scary, and I think with his size, assuming he stays at the sg spot, he can average a block a game. Man, that would be incredible.

I hope they're not content with a title. I want a ten-peat.

My expectation on favors is 9 points and 6 rebounds. Hayward 12 points. Kanter 5 points 4 rebounds per game.

my projection is that he should get plenty of sleep

seriously, this research out of Stanford is pretty interesting!

...With the additional pillow time, players dropped their average time on a routine sprinting drill (from the baseline to half court and back, then to the opposite baseline and back) to 15.5 seconds, from 16.2 seconds. Performance on free throws improved to 88%, from 79%. Three-point shots made jumped to 77% from 68%.

Basic reactions, gauged by having players push a button after spotting a stimulus on a screen, improved by 12%, and players were happier.

Favors had 8.2 and 5.2 for us last year. He better ****ing have better than 9 and 6.

Unfortunately I think the lockout will really hurt someone like him. He seems like someone that just really needs court time. I suppose the same is true for any young player though.
