Agree but next year I'm almost sertain, even if Millsap is resigned that Favors will be the starter at C unless Kanter improves and forces Ty to start Kanter over Favors. As far as this year goes he is seeing more crunch time minutes in games.

If Millsap is resigned, he'll have to eventually realize that it's veteren time from the bench for him.
Same goes for Jefferson.
 
Mo and Conley are pretty much on the same level to me. Mo is a bit better offensively, Conley is better defensively.
 
Players have agents. Those agents talk to their clients. If I was Kanter's agent I know he would get more minutes on any other team. I believe that if Kanter got those minutes that by the time he was a free agent there is a chance he could be a max money guy. By not playing him now as much as he deserves you are affecting his value. Kanter's agent will play a role in how happy Kanter is come free agency and I would be angry if I was his agent.

Kanter's playing a little less than DeAndre Jordan did his first two seasons. Jordan's minutes went up in years 3 and 4, and he was able to sign an offer sheet worth about $11mm per year. I don't see why Kanter's agent would be upset yet, given that Kanter doesn't become a free agent for 2 more seasons (especially if the current PT situation hasn't hurt his development). I don't think Kanter's PT is hurting his value in 2015 free agency.

I'd be much more upset if I were Favors, still getting 23 minutes per game in year 3. It'll be interesting to see what sort of extension the Jazz offer Favors this summer (if any).

I do agree here considering the Jazz's record.
Now if Kanter was on a team with a better record, it could be accepted.... but considering.... it's pretty unacceptable.
Luckily I see Kanter and Favors both as very great team players, and have still both learned a lot in playing with Millsap and Jefferson night in and night out.
Neither are high profile, and have been great teachers.

The Jazz can extend both Favors and Hayward, but only one of them can be extended for 5 years under the "designated player" rule I believe. Wonder who gets offered it?

Remind me.... What was the Clippers record in Jordans first two years?

In my opinion, kanter is much better than jordan. So jordan would not have as much reason to be upset.

Also I don't know if jordan was a top 3 pick or not
 
Also I don't think Kanters agent thinks the way you think he does. However if Kanter is still only getting 14 minutes a game next year then all bets are off.
