If Favors played with heart like Steven Adams

For the record I absolutely love Favors, I think he brings a lot to the team, and its noticeable when he is hurt or not on the court. But part of me agrees with this post, I do wish he would show a bit more fight. Sometimes it appears that he disappears in games, and I don't know if that is because Snyder is trying to find someone else to score or if Favors isn't putting himself into the game as much as he could.

It'd be great if he was more vocal and if we saw him make a huge leap...but even if he doesn't he is a really good player and a fantastic contract...plus he is a good guy on the team, and one I think we can resign easily.
 
Nah. If favors was on okc and adams was on the jazz then people would have been like "look at how good favors is, he is so calm and composed and smooth. I wish Adams was more like favors."

I think favors (and most other bigs) would look great next too durant and westbrook.

Favors on the Thunder would be beast. I'm certain he would more than replace Adams. For one thing, he could take some pressure off Durant and Westbrook offensively. On the other hand, Adams' fire and passion had an incredible Joakim Noah-esque impact on that series. I would like to see the inner Favors pull that out from time to time. He's no junk yard dog but I bet he has it in him in a very important series.

Great post. This is exactly how I see it. Imagine if Favors showed up next year with Karl Malone's passion. He's got the tools to be a Karl Malone type player, but so far he doesn't have the mindset. Karl felt disrespected and motivated every single time he stepped on the court. Favors seems content.

I would buy those summertime VHS tapes.
