Good as we could get at the time.

Very good for this team

Evidence of how effective a strong 5 would be with this young core.

Cant win without him


We need better.

Not terrible but I don’t want him here next year unless we literally can’t get anyone better in the offseason. Dude is plan C. He’s an slightly above average player within 3 ft of the rim. Outside of that radius and he sucks

He just got all ball on that block though. Fake foul.

I cringe whenever he shoots outside of 2 feet of the basket but he’s obviously a valuable player for us.

It’s funny that people started turning on Favors a few weeks ago, comparing him to Asik and acting like he was some bumbling black hole on offense. All this after he posted 12.1pts, 9.9rbs, 72.7%TS, and a 142ORtg in the month of January.

Is he a perfect fit for the future of this team and worth big money going forward? No. Can we upgrade at his position in the future? Probably. But the hate he has been seeing on here recently is ridiculous. I think some people on this board have to focus the blame and vent on somebody all the time. We’ve cycled through blaming Ball, Jrue, Gentry, Melli, etc. Favors is just the flavor of the month.

Favors is a role player thats finding his stride and filling that role. Solid 10 10 guy every night and plays better than average D

Can we just rename the board to "Pelicans Buckets Talk" or something stupid enough to show how undervalued defense is by this board?
