I was going to make a post about this. But this covers better than I could say everything I feel about the 2 players. I was a Favors homer but if he comes back it's as a backup C emergency PF only.I would absolutely love to have Favors back as long as he's ok with coming off the bench and strictly playing backup center minutes. He would easily be the best backup center in the league and would help our bench immensely. If we have to offer him a starting role to get him to come back then I'd rather sign a different backup center. He's not a power forward and having him and Rudy on the floor together just doesn't work offensively.
As for Crowder, I'm not sure I'd want him back. I loved the toughness and hustle he provided and it was great having an enforcer on the team. But he's just such an inefficient scorer and shoots such low percentages. I don't miss him chucking 3 after 3 and bricking most of them. I believe we're currently the second best 3 point shooting team in the league, we can expect that to drop significantly if we bring Crowder back and give him steady minutes. I also don't miss his straight line drives to the basket where he would usually fall down and miss the layup. I don't know, I think maybe his flaws outweigh his strengths.
I have little to no interest in Crowder back.
