Favs Deal Must Be Moved

Usually your starters are your best players, role players tend to start for match up reasons, don't worry your boy Niang started a few games under DL's watch but those days are over.

I think like half the starters in the finals are role or complimentary players.

why did we have to wait until Kanter became worthless to trade him?

I’d argue with this one. We traded Kanter for a first round pick and an assortment of used condoms. Keep in mind that this is before the inflation in value of first round picks. How bad this trade was is obscured by the fact that Rudy needed to come in and it was addition by subtraction so we forgot about it. But one thing is for certain: that summer there were at least two franchises that were willing to max Kanter.

No. A year after he left.

They were allowed to walk the same summer we traded those picks for Burke.

KOC's last transactions as the GM were trading Harris for Marvin Williams and signing Foye.

We should have fired DL after his first year then. They screwed up on Millsap so so badly

Usually, 1 or 2 of your starters are there to maximize the production you get from your star players. Low usage players means that your stars get the ball more.

Like Joe Harris spaces the floor so Kyrie, Harden, Durant have the space. Bridges, Crowder are play finishers, they don't create much and space the floor. Every team has its role players.

Also you are really dumb enough to not realize all the posts I disliked had insults in them regardless of the player. I never once disliked your comments because you said a player sucked.
 
To offload his salary, it would take multiple draft picks, which we don't have cuz DL threw them away.

No need to through insults my way, I just took a shot at your beloved player, he sucks and proved that in the playoffs. No need to use the name calling card.

Every team in the league has role players in their starting lineup lol. Just look at the two teams playing in the finals right now...Crowder and Bridges start for the Suns and the Bucks start PJ Tucker and Brooke Lopez. The Jazz finals teams had Russell and Ostertag in the starting lineup, hell even Hornacek would be considered a role player. Jordan's Bulls started players like Ron Harper and Luke Longlely, Bruce Bowen was huge in the starting lineup on Spurs championship teams, Derek Fish started on Lakers championship teams. Even super teams with 3 superstars fill out the rest of the starting 5 with role players. Look at some of the players Lebron won titles with... guys like Shane Batier, Mike Miller, Cladwell-Pope, J.R. Smith, Tristan Thompson, etc.

I could go on and on listing different players but the point is every single team throughout the history of the NBA has had role players and complimentary pieces in their starting lineup, even the championship teams.

Teams aren't dumb. Why taking on Favors when they could've just signed Robin Lopez or Alex Len. Cheaper and healthier.
