Derrick Favors tweets: "Never Forget"

Favs is a sensitive dude so I think he probably felt like he was forgotten or mistreated over the past year or so. I think he got a lesson in how ruthless professional sports can be if you don't produce due to injury or otherwise.

I wonder if it's just that #20 didn't forget that the Jazz didn't willingly extend him and made him go out on the market to determine his worth?

This strategy seems to have backfired on the Jazz one too many times at this point.

well. this sucks. but he has to know he was injured last 2 years and didn't play alot

I am a huge favors fan, but if he was healthy, fans would've treated him differently.

I hope he stays healthy this season.

Yes, "never forget" how ****ty the fans treated you when you were down. You just described why he would not feel loyalty because the fans never showed it.

That's my biggest gripe with fans. So many people here have talked **** about Hayward and his game, but want to act like he owes them undying loyalty. You want that kind of loyalty then show it.

I've talked **** on Favors. I don't expect him to be head over heals about staying in Utah.

If players feel they are worth more, they go out and shop themselves. That's what free agency is all about. Just like Porter did this year.
 
We're seeing DWill/Sloan/KOC/Corbin PTSD manifest itself finally.

The team has been repressing it for too long.

Too bad Rudy had to experience the blow back.

I think this sums it up well.

Just trade Favors. He does not fit next to Rudy.

Don't make it personal. Make it logical.

Don't buy that. If Favors is healthy, we have a defensive rim protecting duo unmatched in the NBA. He also gives us a low post offensive big unlike anyone we have -- Joe Jesus is good too but doesn't have the size that Favors has. Sure we need a stretch-4. The Jazz should go out and get Kelly Olynyk, who the Celtics apparently need to renounce now that they got Hayward. But I think Favors can be a force if he can recover from his injuries.
 
Favors is over the Hill. He can't get healthy and he mopes around trying to get people to feel sorry for him.
Time to trade him. Don't let another starter leave and get nothing for him. Even if it's a top 55 protected pick.

Welcome to um reality. People complain about every player on every team on every message board. If that has any affect on players then no one would feel any loyalty EVER.
 
I think he means us Jazz fans always backed GH when he was still here and Favs always being on the trading block all the time. Now that GH is gone and he's still here... so never forget which player you backed is my take.

Over the hill at 25? How old are you? Don't buy that. He had no career-ending injuries.
