Let's talk about this a little bit. And Favors.
Favors is really good. Sometimes even great. But the idea of Favors is better than the reality of Favors. I am very concerned that if his problems aren't chronic, then the Jazz medical staff is at least impotent in knowing what to do with Favors. Maybe another team's medical staff would have better luck. But the point is, I don't know that with THIS organization, Favors is ever close to 100% for any kind of significant period. Besides his body, I just have always had questions about his consistency, hustle, and heart.
If you can replace Favors with a guy that doesn't have a set of recurring medical conditions (and one that is mysterious and apparently chronic), is comfortable shooting the 3 and spacing the floor, and has a lot of playoff experience, why wouldn't you? Besides sentimentality and this evasive promise of Favors' infinite 'potential'?
