Derrick Favors Extravaganza!

No, I think part of the reason he began to sour on the organization is they let Wes Matthews go and went after Hayward in the draft. Like it or not he wasn't disgruntled at the beginning of the season. But, when he saw how KOC builds he wanted out.
 
Actually he began to sour when they trade Brewer for no help that year. It was a salary drop and we all know that. And all of us have gone over the Wes thing a hundred times. There is no way they match that with there salary were it was. Blame that on the AK thing or what ever. The point is there had to be a rebuild. We were not winning a chip with the roster we had. KOC is doing what has to be done to build a team. I think Deron had the chance to buy into the fact that it would take time to build again once Boozer, Korver, and Wes were gone. He didn't, he got moody and made the team worse than it could be. So he made a trade that made sense to try to really rebuild. It is what it is.

Were we are now is better than were we would be if we would have waited for Deron to walk after the lock out.

Rep is stupid

YOu all are just looking at his WOW plays. Quit acting like this is the best move the Jazz ever made. We will see on Favors. But, quit drooling over him like you are at a 5 year olds birthday party. It is just unreasonable that you can see STARS with Hayward and Favors playing good in garbage time with teams (except the Wizards game.) This is crazy these are the same people that we drooling over boozer til he left. Dwill till he left. Don't overrate our rookies. Can they be good? Yes...But, as you complain about Ronnie Price a once a game highlight reel the scales tip in both directions.


And morons negative Rep because something hurt their internet egos

You drool at five year old's birthday parties? Are you a pederast?

Favors is over a year off from being 21. He's 6'10, 250, and is quite athletic for his size. He has skills, and will improve quite a bit. In a few years, he'll be a 20-10 guy.

Ronnie Price still shops at Big Lots.

Just wait 'til Derrick gets laid too.

please please watch 28 seconds into this, and compare him to ronnie again after you witness price's beautiful alley oop pass.....
price shames himself at least once a game every game. favors makes the highlight reel at least once a game every game.

I won't because with the exception of Adrian Dantley this kid will prove to be the best player ever traded to Utah. By 22 he'll be a dominant starter. By 24 he'll be an All-Star.

I actually like Price but my point is remember how you all hate Price well he has put on his on highlight reels. Come back when Favors has done something consistently in the league or he is another Price. You will be high on him til you realize that he hasn't done jack.

The problem is that in all your stupidity you actually think that the only reason we like favors so much is because of highlight reels. WRONG! We like him because of his size, athleticism, talent, demeanor etc. And watching favors play we see his special ability. From watching the GAMES not highlights. When watching price play we see his lack of talent and all his mistakes. Continuing to compare favors to price is just plain dumb. Maybe you are just dumb and cant help it.
 
While KBG made an incredibly stupid comment comparing Favors to Price, I think I understand the gism of his argument. What we have here is an array of dunk videos. We need Favors to be much more than just a dunker.
 
All I want from Favors next year is Top 5 in rebounding per minute. That's too high. But if his development goes in increments, I want to be able to say he's a dominant rebounder next year. Anything else is gravy.

I could live with top 10 given the fact that we have Jefferson (who can only be better in that department), Millsap, and perhaps Okur back.
 
Favors showed some life of a jump shot and made some really nice post moves and footwork. It wasn't just dunking on offense. But, isn't that really all Dwight Howard did until this year? Favors also made some really nice passes when he played and a lot of them went to Big Al.
 
Anyone who watched him play the last half of the season can use the eye ball test and know he's going to be special.

His pick and roll defense was also very impressive.
 
While Favors dunks were fun to watch, I found myslef following him on the defensive end and he showed good defense for a 19 year old rookie. While not great at pick-n-roll defense, I thought he did a good job getting after the ball handler and disrupting the play.
