question is : Would u take Noel over Favors?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EOlIXHc-kOg

I wouldnt

Favors is only 21 and a 4 yrs veteran, that can Defend,block and rebound and would be perfect complement to VUC

so i would:

Trade our 1st for favors
Trade our TPE for 2014 expiring contract +1st , I think dallas is perfect trade partner, they want to clear money to go after D12 and other top FA

Try to trade AL and Turk to any team trying to cut down on salary for expiring+future assets (could even be 2nds)

So we start the season with this roster

PG:Nelson+Dallas 1st(Best PG available), moore
SG:AA,Moe,lamb
SF:Harris,Moe,DJ
PF:BBD,Favors,Harris,AN
C:Vuc,Favors,KOQ
Suggs, Tyus, Jase
Bane, AB, Jett
Franz, TDS,
P5, JI, Panda
Wcj, Goga, Moe

I'm advocating Noel for Favors for quite some time, but no way Utah buys that.

I think they would, they have many bigs and need pg to sf

Otherwise, what about (I don't think Orl would do that)

AA+ Orl 2013 pick for favors + Utah s 2 2013 picks?

We could get a nice pg and sg with those picks

Then offer a frontloaded contract to jj





PG:Nelson+Utah 1st(Best PG available), moore
SG:Moe,jj,lamb , Utah s 1st
SF:Harris,Moe,DJ
PF:BBD,Favors,Harris,AN
C:Vuc,Favors,KOQ

Utah has two bigs bro. Favors and Kanter. Big Al and Millsap are UFA's.
A smart coach once said, "Potential just means you're not good enough yet." Playing on potential is like living on air: It's essential, but if thats all you have, you're eventually going to starve.

Why would Utah trade Favors for Noel? Favors + Kanter are the future of that squad. Seems like a sideways move for them.. If not a backwards one.

But i like the idea though. I would love to form a two tower lineup with Vucevic and Favors/Noel/Randle/Gordon.
