What's new

Show your man love to Favors. It's overdue!!!

Favors seems to love playing alongside Gobert. He's been great this year and his jump shot has improved dramatically from previous years.
 
BTW Favors is #2 in PER this season behind the Brow. Technically number three but you can throw Brandan Wright out since he does not play enough minutes. I think he is now a top 10 or higher PF in the NBA. Favors power game and footwork combined with his shooting ability is really going to extend his career since he is not relying on his athletic ability as much. Hayward is a top 10 SF (#7 in per), Gobert is quickly becoming a top center (#7 PER now) and I think Exum will develop into an above average PG who is a good defender, good facilitator and hits his threes consistently.

We just need a solid SG/SF to start with this team next season. Next year playoffs, then a playoff run and then we got some chips to earn after that.

I wouldn't count out Alec. His 3Pt shooting was actually pretty good. Besides, Mehmet Gobert will be raining down three's by next season. Pick and pop is coming back! My biggest concern remains PG. We've seen nothing to indicate Exum will develop into an above average PG, other than the fact he was picked #5. Potential means NOTHING when he has the motor of a Yugo.
 
Favors has taken some major strides this year. Looks like a whole different player. He's putting all together.


That Deron trade is looking more and more terrible for Brooklyn by the minute. Billy King really screwed up that team. I'm still amazed he's not fired yet

Prokhorov found out you can't just murder your employees in the U.S. so he's decided to sell the team. At the time of the trade, a lot of people felt we didn't get enough in return.

I'm going to say we got Favors, Kanter, Gobert and Harris (which later became Marvin Williams). The reason I say Gobert is that I think the Jazz would have taken him at 21 (the GS pick) had they not used it to move up. Just Favors for Williams, straight up, would have been a win for Utah.

By that logic, you'd be giving KOC credit for Gobert, which wouldn't be accurate. DL gets credit for Rudy.
