I could counter with who is our defensive stopper, and protecting the paint late in the game?
I get your point though hartsock about not being able to rely on favors for a bucket at the end of games..... that is why you have 4 other guys on the court.
I think you CAN rely on favors to help get stops at the end of games however, maybe stops just are not important to some people though.
Stops are very important, but was favors going to help poor rotations by Carrol, Burks, Hayward and Foye? Was it going to get a hand up on Ellis, Jennings, and Reddick hitting 3's? The Bucks were scoring pretty well with Favors on the court also. I think Kanter and Sap played just fine at the defensive end and were both better offensive threats.

Umm.... im talking about the last 2 years, not the last game.
I think we all have good points on both sides of the discussion.... the major difference is that i choose to point out the Good things about favors, while other point out the bad.
I Also think that his good outwiegh his bad![]()
I agree his good outweighs his bad, maybe I'm just focusing on the Bucks game since this thread is about Firing Corbin and not about Favors over the last few years. I would rather have Favors play than Sap or Jefferson next year. Let them both go.
Now we are talkin.
Also i would not hate on jefferson very much (maybe not at all) or corbin if jarron collins and francisco elson were the back ups to paul and al..... and watson, and marvin williams were not staring over players that are better than them.
Why are people killing Watson though, everyone knows he sucks, but the other 2 pgs were hurt and even if Burks starts he cant play 48 minutes.

Here's the thing: If Corbin said after the game that he should've put Favors back in because he had been playing so well, and that he probably made a mistake, considering we lost the game, then I might say, well, the guy is owning up and taking responsbility. Then I'd have more respect for him, because that's what Jerry used to do. But no, he says he made the right decision -- what a diss on Favors that was. And that's what p'od me the most his failure to respect Favors.
I would prefer to have Favors in the paint. The bucks weren't killing us in the paint though. It was the guards.
Im personally not just talking about the Bucks game. It's true they killed us from outside late in the game on decently defended 3 pt shots.
They just hit some tough shots. I don't recall us giving up any late easy baskets or in overtime.
This isn't just about one game though...
You don't remember Carroll losing Reddick on a screen for a wide, wide open 3 pointer?
You don't remember Carroll losing Reddick on a screen for a wide, wide open 3 pointer? He actually did it twice in OT, luckily Reddick missed one of them.
