Gotta get over my man crush on Al.
I know Favors is the future, he sure has the talent. I just wish there was a better feel for how mins would be distributed. I guess competition is good, and trade assets are good too, but i hate to lose any of our bigs, i like them all.
Really the only chance of keeping them all is if Millsap figures out how to play the 3. With Kirilinko (likely) gone, there will be time there, and some teams are using larger threes. But still, what about Memo?
Jazz Bigs from tallest down under contract:
Memo (vet and former all star)
Kanter (aren't you supposed to start the third pick right away?)
Al (he's Big Al, he started last year right? and got a lot of points)
Favors (consensus future of the team, just ask sports talk radio)
Milsap (he's earned it, we know because he said so)
Hayward (hey, he plays the 3 right? We all love him, but Milsap will be taking his mins, and Burks should be at the 2 if he is anywhere as good as he looks)
Point is, that's six players that ALL deserve to start at one of three positions for one reason or another.
