Is Derrick Favors Dead?

I think perhaps Mr Favs needs to work more on his core. Nothing more damaging to ur lower back then lifting heavy weights with a weak core. I feel bad for the guy cause he was playing well.

I think that's why his hips are soar. Core work is taxing on the hips. I miss favors I want him back yesterday.
 
I want favors to be healthy, I like him. But in the meantime this lyles kid looks promising. This playing time is helping him develop. My man crush on favors makes me feel ashamed to say it, but in many ways Lyles is a better fit with Rudy.
 
If he is dead, or more politely stated, if his career is done. What can the Jazz do? Sell off Hayward Ingles, and Trey for picks or Jabarri and start rebuilding again?
 
The worst thing about all of this is not the injury itself. Those things happen. It's the organization's complete lack of communication. It's like they're saying "**** 'em, he'll come back when he comes back. We don't need to tell them nothing".
 
"Back Spasms" often means disc issue. Sometimes rest and physical therapy can solve it, sometimes surgery is the only way. Hopefully it settles down and he can play back to form to finish the season. Could be that they're being careful so it doesn't develop into a more serious problem. Lyles has been playing well, so hopefully getting him back is a big boost for the team.

Having Jeff Withey on the roster means that Favors shouldn't be getting any more minutes at C. Seems every time he plays there a lot his back starts acting up.

I've had my lower back act up every once in a while. Sometimes it takes a couple months to get right again. It's probably what he going through. It will go away at some point. I guess we have to hope it doesn't happen too often. I found rest and physical therapy to work pretty good. Screw surgery. That's not what we want for him I don't think. Seems like that's what sent Dwight Howard' career down the drain. It didn't really work out for him. He hasn't been the same since.

I think it's something where they might need to go the San Antonio route and give him ample rest. Ya, he's young, but it's a new era. People think differently. Try preserving him before it becomes a real issue. I'd be doing it with all my players. The NBA schedule is just too hard on the body. It needs to be changed.
