Favors is being wasted by this franchise

something needs to be done. someone needs to be moved. whether its trading millsap or jefferson the log jam is stunting favors' growth. i love paul and all but if he has to be traded or move to the bench thats what needs to happen. hes a great player but not an elite talent that will make the jazz a championship contender. the preference would be for al to go but i dont know how the jazz could move him, sap would be much more attractive to trade.

we are talking about a guy who was the 3rd pick and has a ton of talent. he is not going to develop ever if he doesnt have a solid role and getting 30+ minutes a game.

He should first learn how to use his brain and be more consistent. Obviously it is not enough to be a great athlete for being a great basketball player
 
When Hayward plays just 26 minutes, Favors 23 minutes and Burks a DNP-CD, you can't afford to lose games against what might be the worst team in the league - sans EJ and Brow. If you aren't going to properly develop the future, you damn well better win games, especially against the dregs of the league.
 
What they needed to do down the stretch was play offense-defense. They had the time-out so sub in Favors and Carroll for defense. Where's Ty's head? I thought of that immediately. He does that and I guarantee that Anderson doesn't get that three. Nor would they get that drive at the end.

unless corbin thinks that jefferson is better defensively because of this mythical power called veteran power
 
I'm just going to come out and say it: At this rate, I would be pleased if Al got injured.

I am a terrible and honest person. Short of that or a trade, Favors (and Kanter) will not get minutes.

Noooo. That's so uncool... I'm totally outraged. You shouldn't have! It's a man's career we're talking about here. Yeah.

Heck why not.

We only made the playoffs last year because CJ Miles and Josh Howard got hurt. Injuries are the only reason we ever discovered the Millsap-Favors-Jefferson lineup (which Corbin abandoned immediately when Josh Howard returned).

God I hate our coach.

Well, it was really embarrassing. And Favors should've stayed on the floor. That was abundantly clear.

Hinging it all on 56 seconds?

What's abundantly clear is the Jazz typical athleticism deficit. Putting this on a coach between a rock & a hard place is not fair at all.
