Ridiculous. Bog can't play 3? Favors only plays 20 minutes a game anyway, WHEN he is healthy, which is not 100% of the time, and even then he spends part of the time at center. Hell, all of the time if ever Rudy is injured or needs rest. PLenty of minutes for both of those guys. Get real. Come to think of it, Bogd IS PLAYING THE 3. What are you talking about?
Like maybe the system just takes a while for players to learn? The Jazz miss no one from last year. The starting lineup is infinitely better and our bench is about the same other than not having Korver.
Our bench is absolute garbage this year.
So you are saying that if we were to replace Ed Davis, Jeff green, and nwg with favors, Crowder, and Neto or Rubio then we wouldn't be better than we currently are?
It was last year too before the Korver trade
Crowder is a fine player, as is Favors whose primary role was backing up Rudy. Neto was a good player when he could play. Udoh was better than Ed Davis. Burks was better than anyone we have coming off the bench now and he was regularly in the dog house.
The bench unit played like complete trash before the Korver trade. I'm not talking comparing guys individually. The bench isn't bad because of individuals, its bad because of how everyone fits together.
I'm leaning toward a yes on this. Donovan is growing into the upper tier of game finishers and Rudy is an absolute force when the game is close at the end. It's not optimal, but they are really good at the end of games.
Neto couldn't really shoot. I mean someone who can shoot shoot. Like a Patty Mills.
