The official: Thank you Favors thread.

[Rubashov]

Gonna miss the big fella, loved his work, dude played hard, wish him the very best.

Looks like NOLA is going to sign him, David Griffin is running a train on the NBA this offseason. Lonzo/Jrue/Ingram/Zion/Favors with Redick off the bench is a really ****ing good 6 man rotation.

 

[Coach Ellis]

Favors is going to beast in New Orleans. Pels fans are going to love him. Hope the Jazz got something good for keeping him out of the hands of LA, LA or NY. Screw all of them.

Faves, you are the ****ing man. Love you forever man. An all-time favorite Jazzman who ended up being odd man out through no fault of his own.

C in NO is a perfect fit. Can’t wait to watch him beast next season.

 

[The Jazz Wonderbra]

Loved ya favs. Wish we could keep you but we need space for Spida. Keep balling and Utah fans will keep cheering for you.

PS. Thanks for bringing back draft picks to the jazz on your way out. Classy and efficient on the court and showing it on the way out unlike kankles and his Boston baked beans. Love you favors! Go injure Lebron, Giannis, and Embid and we will send you a ring.

Thanks DFavs! For everything you brought to the Jazz, everything you sacrificed. You'll always be a favorite of mine.

Much love always.

WISH him WELL, and thank you Derrick. Good luck in up tempo pels

 

[Stars Fan]

This is the only thing that tempers my gushing enthusiasm over today. We are going to miss DFavs beast mode. (I know I am at least) Let's start a drive to give him a standing o on his first return to the Viv.

I can’t wait to watch NOLA. They’re gonna be entertaining as heck and I think Fav will shine. So glad we managed to send him to a good situation

Congrats Utah Jazz for treating our own kid fairly. He'll play for a very interesting team that will attract the national spotlights all the season.

I honestly just wish that good situation had been in the Eastern Conference, like maybe Atlanta...

From past experience, Favors is not a player I want my team to face in the playoffs.

Consummate professional. Heck of a player, admire how he dealt with adversity during his time here, never a distraction despite going through a lot. In my opinion we would have lost the Clippers and OKC series without him. Hope he is an all-star for NO next year.
