Do you expect me to quote all 8000 of your posts.
Of course I'm gonna cherry pick some.
You were saying how favors is gonna suck next season and we are all gonna start hating on him, but you the true fan will still support him.
So I cherry picked things that you have said about jazz players that were not supportive.

The sad part is how you know this website will turn on him and fill every friggin thread with Favors is lazy, he's unmotivated, has no heart, makes boneheaded mistakes, is a malcontent, thinks he's a starter... Happens by April, guaranteed. I can hardly wait for the stories Core4 makes up.

But us true fans will still be around to support him (and Millsap).

Here you are, guaranteeing that by april we will all think badly of favors.

So apparently if we ever think badly of a player then we are not true fanz.
So I brought up some things that you had said about jazz players that were a bit critical so that you might see your hypocrisy
 
Stop your bitching...
.
1a) Favors
1b) Kanter
1c) Burke
4) Burks
5) Hayward
.
Potential wise, IMO, Hayward has the least amount of potential out of the 5. Not saying that he sucks, he pretty much is what he is at this point. He'll never become a "go-to" guy, and doesn't have that killer instinct. Will always be a great "complimentary" player but he'll never be the man.
 
Trey is gonna make the all-star team, together with one of the bigs.

Hayward will make a stellar 3rd option, and Burks (if kept) will definitely hold his own as well

Not to mention everyone bagging on Kanter his rookie year. Now everyone gushes over him like he's the 2nd coming of Karl Malone. And although Kanter is my favorite player right now, he is no where close to Karl Malone and I don't think he ever will be.

I think in a very deep way, this site and Jazz fans alike are spoiled with the work and years Stockton and Malone put in. We have this idea that every player that comes thru here should work and play as well as they did. But the truth is, we may never see the likes of that again.

Uhh, how was I hating on Hayward when I said he will be a perennial 6th man of the year candidate?

Or when I was the first to start comparing Favors to Chandler, and everyone here and in the local media started jumping on my bandwagon?

You're obsessed.

Get a starting wing in next year's draft or via a trade at the deadline and maybe we'll have Millsap (if he re-signs) and Burks or Hayward as 6th men. That's not bad firepower.

Get a top 2 pick in 2014 and we could see that level of player again.

I can see this happening fo sho.

One thing that worries me is that the voting might get split between Favors and Kanter.

When have I ever said anything bad about Favors? I've actually defended him more than a few times in recent threads by saying I was impressed by the "fire" he showed during the last 1-2 months of the season. Both Derrick AND Enes will make plenty of boneheaded mistakes this season, as will Trey. Our bigs may "disappear" in some games like they did last season. It's to be expected; Ty didn't play them enough last year and they're still raw. But they'll also both have jaw-dropping games when they put up 20-20. The only negative thing I've said, other than the belief that Enes' lifestyle might not sit well with the conservative Millers, is that both operate largely from the inside. And that, according to reports, is the opinion of some within the organization. So no, I won't be surprised if at some point in the near future, one of the two is traded. And if that happens, then I hope the price will be extremely high. For example, an all-star wing like NOLA got in the Philly deal.

I also have Burke above Hayward. Even though Hayward is a very solid player and a good fit for this team Jazz basketball has always been about PG's and big men first and foremost. I think if Burke is our answer at PG he will very quickly emerge as a top player on the team and certainly one of the most important.

Favors
Kanter
Burke
Hayward
Burks

Most of the best players in basketball right now are not big men or PG's. In fact most of them play the position that Hayward plays. SG/SF. I would argue and fully believe that athletic wing players are far more valuable in the league right now than PG's are.
