What's new

Kevin Love..

He said and I listened to it tonight, that he questioned whether Love-Gobert would be better than Favors/Gobert because people underestimate the defensive contribution of Favors/Gobert.

I think it's by far our best option, but I think Love/Gobert is far superior. I hope to see Favors develop a passable 3 point shot, hitting 35% on open threes on at least an attempt per game.
 
Better chance of seeing Leo Messi play for Preston North End than Love coming to Utah. Think the Le Bron trade looks like a winner tho.

If Favs hit 32% of his 3s on 2 attempts per game and got/stayed healthy would he be better than KLove? I think Derrick's defense is under-rated around here.

Yes definitely. I think just a healthy Favor's could be better. If he adds a reliable three then he will be better.

Just my opinion but if someone is shooting 32% from three then I want them to stop shooting the 3.

Exactly. Opponents will give him that shot all game long and sag off to help on Rudy or sit in the passing lane as Favs tries to get the ball back to a guard.

It's not a good fit offensively. Both Rudy and Favs are P&R players. When Favs was the backup center, that let him play almost half his minutes as the sole interior option. Now Udoh will backup Gobert. And Expe ain't Memo.

Also, Rubio isn't a 3pt shooter. That just compounds the Favors/Gobert spacing issue.
 
I would like to have Love in a Jazz uni at the start of the season. I trust DL. I guess the price is too great that the Cavs are asking.
 
Imagine a bigs rotation of Favs, Love, and Gobert.
