Is Derrick Favors the best player on this team?

He's shooting .512 this year and shot .525 last year. In terms of FTs, last year he shot .669, compared to .667 this year. These numbers are nearly identical.

Someone recently posted his %s on midrange jumpers season by season, and it's noticeably higher (I wanna say it's a jump from about 42% to 47%, IIRC).

But yes, I want him to get more touches, too.

His % are way up. I think he was below 50% last year post Kanter trade.

Spy, I don't think you are trying very hard to understand it.

You really don't see the difference in calling Hayward a better basketball player than Gobert, but that Gobert is more important to the team success? You are a smart guy, I refuse to believe that you actually don't see the distinction.

And you say you could just swap out the terms and say Hayward is most important and Gobert best? Well yea, you could. But the statement is different now. Best and important are not synonyms.

Let's take it NBA-wide. Curry is the best basketball player in the league. LeBron is the most important player to his team. See the difference?
 
Favors is really really good and the scary part is that he will get better. In a few years he will shoot 3's. He is elite in several categories. He is very efficient and can guard several positions. Its awesome that we have him and rudy. They seem to really like to play together. Milsap lovers need to stop. Favors is better than Misap right now, and favors will get better. The thing with Paul is he can't defend. He is so small favors abused him anytime they were in the paint. Paul may have had more points but paul scored many points when the switched on the pick n roll. The Jazz let Milsap walk because they knew favors was better, or would soon be better. People Forget how milsap gets owned by size specially in the playoffs. I am glad Milsap is gone. I love the wasatch front and in a few years we will win a title because of them.

Haha. And I hope to win the lottery. But Exum won't magically transform from "worthless on the offensive end" to "number one option" within a season of returning from a major injury.

I agree here... I have hope for Exum, but watching how aggressive Mudiay is at a similar age has me worried about how Exum played last year. Everyone is different though. I think worst case he can be a Mega Version of Rubio.
