Favors deserves to close games

Anyone else noticed the last 4 games or so how the other team goes on a big run in the 4th quarter as soon as we bring Rudy back in for Favors? I still think we need to continue closing games with Gobert but it's a little concerning, I hope it doesn't become a trend.

Rudy has played like **** the last week. Favors has been significantly better. I don't think that's a long term trend, but it's a little concerning.
 
I say play them both in the end....and watch for which one dominates us....and then pull a guy and put in the man that can slow him down a dat bit!
 
I’ve always felt Favors is severely underutilized. Not enough plays called for him, on the bench at the end of games. Maybe he never fully recovered from his injuries, but he’s looking great right now. I get it, Rudy and Favors don’t work well together - not enough spacing, Favors is not a modern day PF. No **** - he’s a C.

Regardless, give him the ball more. He should be our number 3 option.

He had 2 bad games and 2 good games to be accurate.
He had 19 points, 19 rebounds and 2 blocks at home against new Orleans and 22 points, 13 rebounds and 4 blocks on the road against new Orleans.

He stunk it up against the bucks (5 points, 9 rebounds, and 1 block) and Memphis (9 points, 7 rebounds, and 5 blocks)

It's just so incredibly rare for Rudy to have a game like those two against the bucks and grizzlies that it seems like a bigger slump than it really is.

And while favors has been mostly good during that same stretch he also only had 3 points on 1-5 shooting in the loss against memphis.

I don’t think he played well in that first NO game. The stats may have been there, but I thought he played pretty soft.
