What's new

Disregard Mirotic, Aquire Favors!

more like suddenly he is healthy.
We complain about guys not being tough enough to play when hurt. Then knock on Favs when he could not perform up to par while playing hurt.

C'mon man

What we are seeing now is a healthy D Favs.

It is more health than anything but there are times he looks much more motivated than others.

Something changed in the relationship for the good. I would bring him back if it’s a bargain but I’m not convinced he stays. He may realize his market is bad and we may have a wink and a nod to bring him back on a one year overpay deal that gives us both flexibility if his market dries up.

Whatever happens I will always be a Favors fan. Straight class.
 
I don't remember whether it was CJ or Lillard, but in the second half last night, Gobert switched out to the 3 point line to guard him. He drove past Gobert only to run head into Favors. Wanted nothing of it. Drove right toward the free throw line and passed it off.

Favors and Gobert together rock. Keep Faves.
 
I can't trust myself to be objective. Lol
This streak has me in love with the entire team. No-one has any flaws. They are all hof all stars.
SMH
I hope I never come down off of this cloud, it could be a rough landing.

I have always been a fan of Gobert and Favors playing together.

There have been and will be some offensive struggles but I think both of them can pass enough and do enough to make it work. People give the ability to shoot a three far too much credit for "stretching" the court and providing spacing. It is one factor among many for your ability to create spacing.

That said I had given up on Favors because I thought the team or him wanted to move on. I like Mirotic and think he would be a good fit for the Jazz but I would prefer Favors over Mirotic if that is an option. Favors is a better player. Better players win games.

I also think teams can off set Gobert or other shot blockers somewhat by pulling them out of the paint. Having 2 shot blockers and good defensive bigs on the court is huge. You cant pull them both out. It allows our guys to be very very aggressive on the wing when they have 2 guys protecting the rim and at least one always. Favors is a great help defender and for his size switches very well.

I like what Rubio does right now and hopefully that keeps going but I want to see plenty of this lineup: Mitchell-Ingles-Crowder-Favors-Gobert. That is some crazy good defense and plenty of offense.
 
Favors is more mobil this year. He isnt a huge focus for the offense, but he finds ways to contribute. What he does is allow gobert to be more aggressive on blocks because Fav is there to come in backside for rebounds or pick up goberts man on the dish. I also dont hate that favors roams the baseline for putbacks or tipouts. Favors is also better at keeping the heavier bigs out of the paint. Im glad we kept him for now and hope that he continues to develop the corner 3.
 
Utah has options right now to play Jerebco or Crowder as a stretch 4 if they feel like the offense is struggling with Favors. Getting rid of Favors, who is this
I can't get out of my head how many times over the last seven years he's loafed. He's playing for a contract this season and suddenly he's giving effort. He's fools gold I tell ya. But if he's cheap we probably need to gamble on him.

What the **** are you even talking about?

He's been injured for 2 years. Before that, there was a legitimate debate as to whether or not he was Utah's best player over Haywood.

Incentive based contract?

With all the ****** deals out there I’m hoping we can get him for a good price. He’d be VERY hard to replace imo and we can afford it.
