Favors got extended

Hopefully we get a star potential player in the draft which will be on a rookie deal, then we will have our guys and core for about 4 more years.
 
With incentives it's harder to put the structure up, but 25% max he can get next season is estimated at $14.5mm. I think max incentives can be 10% and max reductions 7.5% so let's hope front loading this was something around $13.63, $12.60, $11.66, and $10.79.

That's one hell of a sweet extension structure and there is zero reason for the Jazz to have not front loaded.

Nope.. not me.
I'm exclusive.
 
I think this will help Favors too. He can just go out now and play his game. Who knows if this was on his mind.

I'll be surprised if it's not a contract with raises.

That's not what I'M talking about. Shots challenged by Sanders close to the basket have the lowest ratio to result in points ;) Favors is not in the same category yet.
I feel the Jazz got kinda raped by the early extension. Early extension means financial security for the player. The Jazz didn't get a discount here. 3rd year extensions are either financial trade offs or it's a franchise player who you want to stay happy at any cost.
But since Favors views himself as PF I compare him to Taj Gibson. Taj is also a better defender at this point. Derrick is younger with more upside. Offensively they are similar in efficiency IMO at this point. Taj got 4 yrs $33M. If I factor in expected development for Favors I'd say an early extension at $42M would have been a fair price. Now he has the benjamins incoming and can pull a Tyrus Thomas or get hurt. That's why I think that's a horrible contract. Didn't the Jazz hire a former agent to be assistant GM?
