Favors and our offense

[Park Bites]

No, this star he speaks of can't be a head case.

I think there are enough strong people on this team to keep him in line. I think part of his head problems is 1 being in a crappy franchise and 2 losing all the time

I think his head problems is 1 being an infant unable to help himself and 2 being a negative whinny little bitch. I don't want that kind of player around a young roster. Hell I don't want that kind of player, at all. I wouldn't trade Favors for Cousins straight up.

Would the Spurs trade Favors for Cousins, and then be confident about "keeping him in line"? Or would they just keep Favors?

you forgot 3 he's an infantile loser

If you're the GM of the Kings and want Favors, why wouldn't you wait til he hits the open market summer of 2018? No reason to pay upfront, Favors isn't leading any playoff charge with those players.

Good post, but you lost me with the last part about Burks. Burks is a really good player, and once he's healthy, we are going to have to find minutes for him. Unfortunately, he's going to take minutes from Dante and Jingles, and I think we could cut a few minutes from Hood and Hayward, here and there. Regardless, we are going to have to find minutes for him somewhere.

i dunno about Burks, not sure if he's a good fit unless he plays with a little more control and shoots a bunch more threes, in which case on this better team he might be awesome, but Ingles has really stated his case and seems to fit with the other players well.

there's gonna be 2-3 guys not playing tho when everyone gets back.

It comes down to keeping Hill long term or Favors. It's going to be an excruciatingly hard decision for DL.

Cousins for Favors lol. Favors can barely run up and down the court right now.

 

[Goodluckchuck]

And to think of Lyles taking Favors spot is a ****ing nightmare. The guy can't defend if his life depend on it. He has games where he tries harder than other times, but for the most part he is terrible. And don't get me started on rebounding. These are fundamentals that all NBA players should know, but yet don't. Favors knows defense and rebounding. Maybe not right now. But our future without him scares me. Yea we have done well so far. But if Gobert goes down and we have to rely on withey and Lyles. Lord help us!

I don't know why this is a big issue. Just extend Hill and that gives us 1 more year with this core intact. Either we're contending or we're not. Hill, on the other hand, is a FA next year. I'd rather roll the dice with another year of Hill and Favors and if we're close to a championship see how that changes the dynamic of what Favors wants to do.

And if we were a top-tier team doesn't anyone think the Jazz FO might be willing to venture into luxury tax? Is that too far out of the question?

Hope so - but I doubt it.
