The Jazz desperately need Derrick Favors to be productive this season.

He will be. I just wouldn't count on it from the offensive end.

[QUOTE]There was something different about Enes Kanter.

He snarled. His easy, joking manner was absent. The silly postgame grin was Audi Five-Thou. The goofiness was gone, too, most of it. He was pug-lipped and long-faced. He was as serious as a county two-lane head-on. He was exactly what the Jazz hope he will be after a loss this season, and maybe even after a win. He was dissatisfied and

He did?

Only time will tell how much of an impact this injury will have on Burke's development and that of the Jazz. He will wear a hard cast on his finger for the next three weeks, at which point he will be reevaluated.

How many wins and losses is this injury really going to affect? Probably not as many as one might think.

The fact that they obviously aren't looking to win I'm sure it won't matter much.

Especially if he's only out for as little as four weeks. The preseason will last for nearly two weeks longer until the regular season begins anyway. The Jazz might just have to rely on players like Gordon Hayward and Alec Burks to help distribute the ball.

Should be relying on them anyhow.

[QUOTE]Adrian Wojnarowski dropped one of his classic news bombs Friday evening, reporting that the Jazz have come to an agreement on an extension with Derrick Favors. The extension is reported to be for 4 years and $49 million, with incentives that could raise the total above the $50 million level. The deal keeps Favors in Utah until 2018.

The big money extension is in line with others signed this summer amongst talented big men. Sacramento PF DeMarcus Cousins
