Question about Favors

[green]

I posted this in another thread and it got buried under the more exciting new nickname for the young 'uns:

Which Favors would you rather have:

Favors at 12 pts, 10 shots per night, 10 rebs, 3 blks, 52% fg for 10 million a year.
Favors at 17 pts, 10 rebs, 3 blks, 48% fg for 15 million a year.
Favors at 15 pts, 10 rebs, 3 blks, 48% fg then traded for a future first to a team like Cleveland.

I want to know when a player is worth his salary based on his production, and when it is better to trade him because, while his production is good, it isn't good enough for what he will get paid.

When I see the blocks, I hit it.

Actually forget about the FG %. I think the Jazz will have their success more from the rebounds and turnovers dominance this season.

Of course they'll make mistakes, but if they steal the ball well enough and hold on to it *KANTERRR ARE YOU WITH US!!!*, they'll be alright with the % they'll have.

Why should that be the max?

If he can go 30/18/5 at 50% I'd be even happier.

I went with the first option. That is because I assume that Kanter gets the same stats and that the burk bros get 12 ppg and Hayward is 17 ppg with 10 asst. Yes the coolaid tastes good.

If this comes true, our bench would still have to score 35 points a night to get to 100 pts. First of all I don't think the bench should be in long enough to score 35 points, and I don't think we will have a good enough 2nd unit to do so every night.

I don't think that's cool aid you're drinking.

We will need more scoring from the starters.

This is super interesting as well.

I'd put this as our averages:

Kanter - 15 pts
Favors - 12 pts
Burke - 19
Burks - 12
Hayward - 17

That's 75 pts a game. We would need 25 to get to 100. I could easily see Jefferson getting 10 (actually, I see Jefferson starting before long with Burks moving to the bench and Hayward sliding to the 2) and Rush getting 10. That right there is 95.

We COULD be a playoff team, but this team will live and die with Trey Burke. If he can get 19 and 6, we could be really, really good. If he ends up at 10 and 4, we will be awful. He controls the ball, he runs the offense, and he is probably our best ball handler-get-into-the-lane guy.

I've thought that Favors would be our big jump in scoring, and doing something along the lines of 18 pts with 46% fg, but the more I look at what Burke did in college, and the type of game he has, and he will be able to run the P&R with Favors and Kanter, but then he will be surrounded by legit shooters (Hayward, Rush, Jefferson and even Burks) he will be allowed to get into the lane a lot. If he can finish in the paint and get fouled, then that completely changes this team. Completely.

Bench could be good or terrible. It depends on Rush and Jefferson. If they can average 20 together, then the bench is pretty good.

The PG position is key. It will be interesting to see what Utah does with that position. We don't really have a good backup right now. What does Corbin do? Does he run Burke 35 mins, Burks 5 mins and Lucas 2?

We have potential, but it all comes down to Burke. We will go as far as he carries us. If he struggles to start the year, yikes, that could be scary.

I just don't think that Burke will our leading scorer this year. Especially if he actually does what he says he learned from John Stockton over the summer -- that is get the other guys involved first and then your shot will come. I kind of agree with the 75 points for the starters, however, but with Burke more in the 12-13 range and the other points going to the other 4.

Good hell, if Try Burke averages 19 points/game this year, he will be runaway rookie of the year, and probably an all star. 19 and 6 is Tony Parker numbers, and he was considered an MVP candidate.

Um...yup. That's what I said.

I thought the thread was what stats would be worth what salary level. For me these are the floor stats for max money. Higher is always better. Hell, lets have him put up 40/20/5 65% .5 TO. Yay!
