Not to mention is a condensed season with less games than normal.
Not to mention 2010-2011.
Playing well is priority #1 and nothing outside of that is really even close. If you're hoping someone else ****s up, then you don't deserve the break.
You win.
Best case:
Enes Kanter: Poor man's Karl Malone. Tougher Big Al with better defense.
Derick Favors: Cross between Amare Stoudemire and Tyson Chandler
Jonas Valanciunas: Tyson Chandler but rather a slightly worse version of him
And worse case?
You've basically just described Hakeem Abdul Olajuwon. That would put him in the top 5 of all time.
ROFL....Tyson Chandler or J.Noah comes to mind.

Jerry Sloan: "I have to blame myself for Andrei's failure to be able to play at times because maybe I haven't handled him the way he'd like to be and done the right things"
Thats ridiculous. JV is already better offensive player then Chandler. D.Casey had a chance to coach Chandler and compared them - according to him JV is much much better player then Chandler was at that age.
JV's best case is Noah and P.Gasol hybrid
Kanter's best case is Al Horford.
Favors best case: hm....Dwight Howard?

Lol, Raptors were losing because of Bargnani and Lowry being two selfish chuckers/ball hogs. Lowry made adjustments to his game and is coming of the bench now and Bargs is still out. Thats the reason they are winning, not JV.

Finishing fast break with dunk has nothing to do with basketball IQ. Javale McGee does it all the time and yet is dumbest player in NBA. Understanding offense and defense and knowing when to pass out of the post does.
Kanter has better body now, is better rebounder and post up player, but JV has higher ceiling. Not sure why you arguing that.

so kanter's worst case is reggie evans and valanciunas' two borderline allstars or even allstar players? stop dreaming... valanciunas will never be the passer like noah or gasol, will never have noah's motor and never gasol's skills on the offensive end...
Nope. Because of Chandler's defensive and because of his size and athleticizm similar to Amare and since Favors has better offensive potential than Chandler's, a hybrid of Amare and Tyson makes sense to me... But yes, Favors won't become the offensive force like Amare. But I like his potential on the defensive end...
The point I'm making is that saying a taller Reggie Evans is the floor of Kanter is just stupid.
Look, I know you have a boner for AK and apparently anyone not on the Jazz, so why don't you just go root for a team that actually has players that you like? Being a Raptors fan is great fun, you'll get to watch OKC draft Shabazz a year after missing out on Barnes.
why is there not a like button?
I said taller R.Evans. Evans was leading NBA in rebounding one season before he got hurt - which is what Kanter being taller can do as well. I may add Evans with better offense if that would make you happier.
And if you think I am dreaming it just shows that you have not seen JV play. His motor already at Noah's level and he is very capable passer.
See JV dropping 22 pts one Duncan and Spurs and tell me if there is no chance he would develop Gasol's skills on offense. In that game alone he made more jumpers then Kanter during his all rookie season...
