stop hating on my boy he is not only my former team mate but also my partna so if the awards he won don't show you he is pretty much the best at his position right now then you sleep an watch out for me on dat field Rober Jones don't forget the name i am the one who bust lance stphenson head
-if ya don't know, the Utah Jazz have the New York Knicks 1st round draft pick.. Meaning they're gonna one of the worst teams this year and Jazz will end up picking him up. Hate me now. But in june. You'll see! :)
I wonder how his play and Sloan would work out... I can see Sloan being a dick and not playing him as much his rookie year. With Boozer gone next year this pick could give the Jazz a incredible boost and keep them as a competitive team.
January 9, 2010 i get to witness him in person, Duke vs. Georgia Tech in Atlanta. The only Duke game I can go to because I live in Georgia and plus Derrick Favors who is probably the most well-rounded Freshman this year. Gonna be a good game.
@largec ..this cat is aite but then i know one thing..he aint gonna b a freakin dwight howard man...he reminds me of a dj mbenga ya smell me?? and he aint gonna be a damn number 1 draft pick..that's a fact!
Only thing he lacks that Dwight has is mostly strength, Dwight Howard was just as skinny when he was in high school but now he is built like a rock. He needs to really hit the gym hard and bulk up and he'll be a force to be wreckon with because i think he is a bit more gifted on offense then Dwight is, and don't get me wrong, I'm not taking anything away from Dwight he's a beast, all i'm saying is that don't sleep on Derrick Favors.
@largec When Dwight was Derrick's age he actually benched less than what Favors did. Dwight did 7 reps at the combine and Derrick did 14. Every other measurable was basically identical. But at this point in time yeah Dwight is definitely stronger but he's got 5 years on this kid. Ha Favors is gonna be a beast. He already has a better jump shot than Dwight, too. Like you said, he's more gifted offensively.
dunking doesn't make a great player lets see this guy make a jump shot or a free throw for that matter. avg height of high school player 6' avg college 6'4" avg pro 6'5" so i doubt the blocking will even continue even at 6'9" he's got to be able to make a shot and handle the ball. he'll be forgot about after his first season at tech
No he won't, theirs a good chance he's a top 5 pick and possibly #1 overall. He is a great shooter for a big man so I am pretty sure you've never seen him play live because you wouldn't question his shot or handles.
nah you cant say that about any high school player even one as talented about derrick favors especailly comparing him to a perennial allstar also favors needs to bulk up for the nba
uh, that's quite a claim to say he's more skilled than amare, i don't know if you can make that call quite yet. i know you're talking about their high school comparisons, but still.
ppl forget when amare came in the nba he was all dunks it wasnt until he got hurt and lost a lil athleticism that he begin to work hard on everything else and he said more skilled then amare at that age this guy is only 17

This kid's wingspan is insane... 7'4"...
He seem's pretty agile for someone that size. If only he had better handles he could be the next TMAC. That would be amazing.
