Favors Expected to Make Decision on Monday

[Ellipse]

I'm guessing a 1 year 10 million dollar deal.

Nah. If it's a 1-year deal, it will be for at least $12 million. The Jazz won't give him a pay cut when it doesn't really matter this year.

Whats everyone's gut feeling on this? the longer the decision takes is it better or worse for our chances of retaining Favs?

 

[Ellipse]

My guess is that one of the offers is a sign-and-trade (3-year, $45) to Milwaukie.

 

[latin jazz]

1 year deal at 13-14M

My gut feeling is that he has known he is going to Atlanta for a while. I think he takes less money for longer years to be close to family and friends.

We went out to Atlanta and met with him for 3 hours to try to change his mind.

They gonna rent their space (for picks)or pick up someone younger than Favs. They don’t want to be good yet.

I don't think Favors makes them a good team by himself. I think he is allowed to "showcase his talent more" while they build for the future. We all know he's an amazing lockerroom guy and would be a great influence on a young team. They could lock him up to some Ingles type declining contract and he could be close to home.

If I'm Atlanta, he's exactly the type vet I want to bring in to mentor this young team.

I think he's in. He's a Utah guy.

 

[The Midnight]

I think he's in. He's a Utah guy.

Unless there's a strong offer from the East.

- West just got MUCH stronger

- His family's in Atlanta

I would say 60-70% chance he comes back, but who knows....

 

[Ron Mexico]

I think he gets a 4 year deal to stay. It will be a good deal though. Maybe something like Ingles.

I dunno I dont think he goes to Atlanta to play for a losing team, he plays 3 or 4 more years at the jazz maybe another short contract or two after that and his number hangs from the rafters, maybe he wins a ring. Would one or two million when you already have made millions really make you walk away from a legacy?
