Favs Deal Must Be Moved

I preached DL was an idiot before and was persecuted now look. Hopefully Wade and Smith can fix his stupidity.
 
As a fan I can only really hope that we have the best team possible. If that means getting better contributors for Favors money, then I'll be happy. I will 100% completely understand moving Favors to save money, but I'm not going to be happy about it since it will make the team worse.
I can't pretend to care about Ryan Smith's money, and the basketball consequences are too ambiguous for me to want to move Favors for nothing.
 
I can understand why you wouldn't believe Ryan Smith wants to spent $90M for two years of Favors...but I have zero care about Ryan Smith's money if he wants to spend it. A large tax will might be worth having a good team for him. He's going to save so much more on real taxes with his purchase of the Jazz.

WIth that said, if some team is willing to take on Favors for our first round pick...I have a very hard time believing Ryan Smith will choose Favs over the first round pick.
 
This is the problem with the team. We fell in love with personalities over winning a title.
and the top record in the west only may the homers more blind.

Reality sunk in when we embarrassed ourselves in the playoffs.

Some people still think Royce is the answer, or some really good player. It's mind blowing. He's OKAY but hes a weakness and
very overrated by some. Ingles too. These guys should be end of the rotation guys not key pieces.

I got lit up by this board for suggestion that Royce was overrated. Funny how times have changed.

Nothing has changed on the Royce front at all. He was good in the playoffs… he’s worth every penny of his deal. I’m not sure we can get more from him in a trade but if we wanted a mid first round pick I think a few teams would line up to take him off our hands.

The problem is that we needed 2 more guys like Royce and Joe instead of Favors and nothing else.

We had 3 All Stars this year and the 6th Man. Our issues weren't Royce and Joe, it was not having enough guys like them.

The “I don’t care about Ryan’s money” narrative is kinda naive. If he was spending 90M to keep a key cog then it makes sense… for our 8th man? I just don’t see it. These guys don’t make mega billions by not worrying about spend and being wasteful… a tax deduction is cool but trust me… they’d rather have the money.

At least for me, I understand and expect Ryan to manage his money and offload Favors. It's also true that I won't be happy if/when we make deals that make the team worse, but only save him money and can't be spent elsewhere to make the team better.

If Ryan really wants to save money...
If Conley wants LA, we should trade:

Conley and Favors
for
Kuzma, Harrell, THT and a draft asset

Trading Harrell and his $9 million expiring would be easy. We would get an asset for it trading him to Charlotte, Miami, etc.

Trading Favors will cost us an asset. We need to include him in a Conley or Bojan deal. Outside of that, just keep the guy.
