Shall we extend Favors now?

[bigmike]

$15M a year, you sign him in a heartbeat. It'll never happen. I'm thinking closer to $25M per.

A part of me wonders if D Fav is going to be the odd man out. Pretty clear we can't pay Rudy, Gordon, George Hill, Favors, and Rodney, and I think GH and Hoodie are musts. G Hill has been a revelation, but he's old. Favors is also awesome, but seems to be a walking minor injury. Who do we side with if it comes down between the two?

If it's me making the call, I re-up Favors, and if that means Hill is too expensive to re-sign then so be it.

You don't invest in someone who is breaking down like this.

Curry

Also, GS invested in Andrew Bogut, which was important to them in winning a title. Depends on the situation, but Favors is worth investing in. If you can extend him at a discount, you take that gamble. However, I'd put extending Hill as a priority.

See, I'm really on the fence about both Favors and Hill. The former because of his injuries and the latter because of his age, Exum and the fact that this draft's pg crop is unbelievably strong.

Right now, the only sure things who should undoubtedly be on this team for the next five+ years are Hayward, Hood and Gobert IMO.

Not worth it considering how much he's gonna be injured....

 

[Miggs]

Are we even currently allowed to extend him or has that deadline come and passed?

 

[NAOS]

I personally guarantee that, barring injury, Hill has three more good years beyond this one. After that, there's the stretch provision.

 

[Shad]

15 mil a year for Favors is a steal..... for him.

 

[Miggs]

Injuries or not, 15 is a steal. I'd throw out an offer of 4 years, 65M and see what his agent says. Which almost certainly would be no. But I'd start there.

Hill is a huge difference maker for this team. If you're not on board after the way he started the season, you will be within a month, once he gets healthy.

I think we have until March, I read that somewhere a few days ago....could be wrong

 

[DForceAUS]

Its a pleasant spot to be in deluged in young talent, and Hill has been a pleasant surprise

The next few weeks are huge. If Lyles looks ready Favors might be gone.
