My oh my...this is getting ridiculous. Glad the season will be played and soon you all Kanter lovers will shut the hell up as I could not stand reading this BS for another year.
Who is our long term #1 Superstar Stud?
- Thread starter Qman
- Start date

Not changing anything. AK is not superstar stud - he is perfect third option on championship caliber team with two superstars. Think Lakers with Bryant and Gasol.

Derrick Favors is a potential role player with a limited ceiling?

Bulding this team like the Pistons of several years ago: no superstars but very good starters and a solid bench. Favors will be the best of the bunch and Hayward looks like he could be a very good all-around player. Ultimately, though, I think the Jazz' fate lies in the hands of Kanter. If Enes develops into a top-10 center, then the Jazz will create huge matchup problems. Gasol/Odom/Bynum is aging. Favors/Jefferson/Kanter could be the next big force.

Yep. Of all the inane posts by AKMVP, saying "none of the current roster players are potential superstars. Bunch of role players with limited ceiling" is his worst yet.
I get it, though. AKMVP has a three step plan for restoring the Jazz and his favorite player to the levels they reached in 2003-2006, when AK was "The Man" and nearly led the team to the playoffs ;-)
1. Dump Millsap and Favors. Both these guys play PF and take minutes away from AK's "natural" position.
2. Trade Hayward. He's shown too much propensity for being able to drive, pass and also shoot the 3. This is AK's role. Can't have another player doing the same thing, especially not one who can actually hit a 3 and do more in the lane than just throw up his arms and hope the ref calls a foul.
3. Trade Jefferson for an expiring contract. Al is the #1 option. He gets too many touches and therefore cannot co-exist with Andrei. Also, that frees up enough cap space (together with dumping Millsap) to give AK another max deal. Reinstate AK as the #1 player and he WILL respond with another 16/8 year. I guarantee it!

Make me. And I will laugh when after few years you will be looking back at your posts and seeing how unrealistic and subjective you were.

I am trying to evaluate current Jazz roster without any bias. I would say same about other team if they had same players... some posters here obviously not. Jazz players are always better for them even if nation wide experts say different. I get it - it is called love for home team... but it should not be blind.
I guess nobody here would have said that Favors is better or has better ceiling then Cousins while he played for Nets, right? Ask this question now...
Certainly not
2nd year is huge for Hayward. If he continues to show signs of improvement then watch out. I wouldn't be surprised to see him struggle, and have a sophomore slump either.
If Al could play well with anyone else ever. And if Brewer can ever become a shooter, also.
Because AK has such a great history playing 3rd fiddle.

From what I saw towards the end of last year, Favors and Jefferson played together pretty well.
