You MUST know that there is more to than game than out of context stats. So are you dishonest or stupid?
I can understand those critical of his weaknesses, but I hate when those same people can't acknowledge when he is really carrying the team and getting our shooters open looks.
Do those stats show how he sucked the defense in, allowing key Hayward and Harris 3 pointers?

He is ginormous and semi coordinated. Just a big giant ***** though.

Agree… it's awesome to see Favors out there closing games.
Can't wait to see him in the playoffs!!

Als offence was clutch, but it did take to the last qtr for his defence to get up to the required standard. U get the feeling that al likes to have favors playin defence alongside him as favors covers al's mistakes better than milsapp can.
No, what's your point though?. I don't recall anyone saying "if only AJ can score some more!!". So the statements about his points (on 22 shots, lol) are irrelevant.
Hayward zones out when our plan is feed the bigs. He was still 5/7. 12 pts. Not bad off night

Favors was clearly the player of the game for us.
jefferson shot two free throws tonight, which he earned by juking his man and drawing contact. Hell has frozen over. His buckets coming down the stretch (over a tired and under-sized Davis) were his saving grace, because his defense was as bad as I've ever seen.
Burks and Kanter were effective in their limited minutes. Each should have had more.

I think us not rebounding in the 1st killed him too. He likes to get it started with easy fast break buckets, but those can't be had if no one is rebounding.

Jefferson's game is evolving into something that the haters thought would never happen. He is such a key for Utah. I am more convinced than ever that the future of the Utah Jazz involves starting Jefferson, Favors, and Millsap alongside each other. IMO Sap has proven he can man the 3 and that line-up seems to thrive whenever Ty goes with it.
