What's new

Open Scrimmage October 5 at 4 p.m. MT!

Locke asked him either what his go to move was or if he needed one. Favors said he doesn't need a go to move.

I heard something different at the game. It was kind of hard to hear because Locke didn't put the mic high enough a lot of the time.

I thought Locke asked Favors about how hard working with Malone was this summer, and Favors said, "It wasn't that hard." Locke lughed and then Locke said he better end the interview before Favors got into trouble.
 
Favors will never be as good as Howard. Dwight Howard before surgery was the best BIG and it was not even close....

If Favors can a bit like howard... Then you can kiss it and put it on your head...

"Like him" as in how? By roiding up to 280 lbs? What offensive post moves does Howard have except the shoulder lowering clearout?

Ok, just to realize it. We are not comparing Favors with a tall player from neighbourhood who plays basketball. We are comparing him with Dwight Howard, who is by far the best Big Man in the game. I think that lots of people understimate Howard because he got a lot of mental issues after surgery, but we are talking about...

- 7 times Allstar
- 3 times NBA Defensive Player of the Year (2009–2011) he did it consecutively
- 2 times NBA blocks leader (2009–2010)
- 5 times All-NBA First Team (2008–2012)

Im not in love with Dwith Howard, but we have to stop "homerisim" and start being realistic. IF Favors could get near that, just near that, I would be in love with him...

I'm telling you what I saw from the stands. My youngest is sick though so we left early (and he required lots of attention). I could have missed stuff.

I expected those two to dominate and they didn't. 5-8 against Goob-Evans isn't the best line IMO.

I watched the game online. Kanter absolutely dominated and Burke was horrible. Scott Machado was the best PG out there. But this is just a scrimmage, so not to be taken too seriously.

Howard is overrated. If he played in the 90s, he would never have gotten any all-NBA selections -- would've been borderline All-Star.
 
I think that Biedrins is a good player... He have to come up mentally, than he could be useful.

Maybe defensive just a tad, but I don't think he'll be worth anything to us. What, did he play like 2 minutes on saturday? Had like 1 rebound.

you forgot to say that howard will never lead a team to win a championship and he demands the money as if he would

Howard has carried more teams to the finals in his career than the Jazz have been there in the same time frame.
 
We have no pg.

Hayward and Favors haven't drastically improved.

Kanter looks the same, but his numbers were improved but he was guarded by scrubs.

The best plays of the night were by scrubs.

People think Evans looks good.

Man, we are screwed.
