I’m in the minority here, but I hope that the cost to retain him makes sense to keep him in Utah. I like the Rudy/Favors frontcourt - especially the defense and lineup versatility that it gives Snyder. With the right wings, the Jazz can more easily matchup with a big frontcourt like the Pelicans or Nuggets as they can a run-and-gun team like the Rockets/Warriors.Favs is still here. Will he return?
He looks pretty good right now. hitting some corner 3s. If he continues to make some corner 3s and spread the floor.....
Will he be back?
Favors is not staying in Utah to be Rudy's backup. Forget about this! Even if he doesn't get a big contract he would rather go elsewhere for a 1 year prove it deal where he will actually have the opportunity to play his natural role, rather than spacing in the corner on offense.
I just double-checked.... Favors is our starting PF right now. Just an FYI.Why does he have to be Rudy's backup?

Yes, right now he is. How much do you think we will give him when Quin obviously doesn't trust them together and has been playing them separate as much as possible? Do you really think in Favors' mind how he's being used with Rudy on the floor is how he imagines his career going forward? Spaced in the corner waiting to shoot 3s?I just double-checked....

I think DL likes good basketball players and having financial flexibility. Favors is a good basketball player. We're going to get that 6th seed and pull an upset. Favors will help. Good experience for whatever our core is moving forward; and maybe Favors will be a part of that.Yes, right now he is.

How many 3s has Favors shot? I MEAN....this seems like a really hyperbolic description of the role he's been playing.Spaced in the corner waiting to shoot 3s?
