Favors = passion?

Good lord! I see plenty of passion and fire from Favors. Just because he isn't as demonstrative as some other players doesn't mean he doesn't have fire, and unless you know the man personally. Locke who knows him personally has stated many times that Favors is very misunderstood in that regard.
 
Favors is a beast and a pro. I'd want him on my side in a fight any day.

I laughed when Harpring criticized Alec for not showing anything on his breakaway dunk. As if Matt was ever the most unguardable player on the floor before.

I like this teams demeanor. They are learning to close out games too. To me it is Corbin who looks like he could choke a game away.

Great quote. Tells a lot about many things that I could think of already that he had as his character. I appreciate Favors a lot. The more I know about him, the more I appreciate him as a person which is added to how much I appreciate him as a player.

That!

If Favors continues to grow and his confidence grows, then he will show passion I'm sure. So many past stars never showed "passion" when they were young. It wasn't until their confidence grew from their play and they new what they could do with a ball in their hands. I don't worry about his passion YET....
 
Favors has two emotions - silence and rage.

In other words he's a man - so leave the basketball to Favors and just go down to Starbucks and order your Decafe, Double, Grande, 2 pump Vanilla, Non-Fat, Extra Hot, Latte and negotiate some "emotional shares" with your plutonic lady friend (who has 6 cats)

This is my main problem with Favors, the lack of passion in his game! Yesterday I alluded to that in the forum, but "Vermin" misunderstood my words and even had the courage to make sarcasm.

I think my yesterday's post has been an inspiration for you to open this thread.

Lack of fire could be a problem in playoffs game.

I also have the courage to call Kanter "Dense" and much perfer Favors over him.
 
Lets stop picking on favors. As far as I'm concerned, he's the rock we build on. He's doing great this year

For god's sake, too many are making this into some type of criticism of Favors. Not at all. Just a question about what some of you thought and my own observations. Wanted intelligent observations on the question, not hysterics.

Never been to Starbucks in my life (i like real coffee). Have no lady friend other than my wife of 44 years and don't know what an "emotional share" is. Apparently you do!
 
Started this thread to see if anyone else appreciates Favors for the way he plays the game. He is a breath of fresh air after watching way to many sports center highlights. Like his attitude and approach to the game and also most of the rest of this team.
 
Duncan rarely ever gets excited. I am not worried about that.

They key is can he stay aggressive every single game. his aggressiveness on offense is the key. And Corbin making sure these wing players and pg's get him the ball.
