Isn't relevant, but since it provides good entertainment there finally occured a brawl in Euroleague tonight where the guys actually hit their punches

Anyone would have traded Favors for Lillard straight up?
I think that was on the table at the draft.
The problem I see with Embiid is that he works with neither of the current Jazz big men. Can you trade both and get significant pieces back that allow you to take Embiid? I think Favors and Kanter are very good complimentary players. Favors can follow his man out of the paint, Kanter's size inside is good. Offensively Kanter can be a killer elbow player who also has low post moves. That creates a pretty hard mismatch if the others put the mobile guy on Kanter he goes in the low post, and Favors needs to be a threat from 15 feet on the weak side so there's no help on Kanter. If they send the heavy guy, Kanter goes to the elbow and takes him off the bounce with Favors playing the low post on the opposite site and either one initiating the play. The big guy helps on Favors, he passes it to the elbow to Kanter, and Kanter has a driving lane with Favors spreading a little. Defensively they are pretty interchangable, even though Favors has the better body at this point to play out of the paint.
I'd try to ride that train and create the Memphis towers 2.0
