Go with Burkes at the 2 with Milsap at small forward. Stop this nonsense of trading Burkes, Trade
Foye with Bell for a back-up Big. . Let Burkes and Favors become real NBA players!!
The Milsap at the SF position was a desperationg move at the end of last year as the Jazz didn't have a reliable SF (Howard and CJ were less than reliable). However, this year with Marvin and Carroll (and I would argue that Hayward in some cases would be better as a SF as he is a shooting guard who can't shoot or keep up with speedy SGs), Milsap should be the backup PF, and the only change necessary is switching Favors and Sap. Sap would dominate as the backup, and still could get 20-30 mins per game if Favors gets in foul trouble or struggles on some nights.
For the life of me, I can't understand why Favors isn't getting more mins. I also can't understand why Corbin didn't ride the bench longer in the Wizards game. I am starting to think that there really is no plan to set up a trade by showcasing players or gradually increase minutes and development of the younger players, I think that Corbin really isn't a very good coach or basketball mind.
