With all the positive news about Kanter, and Derrick Williams playing the position of their best players, I don't understand why the T-Wolves will NOT pick Kanter. Ford mentioned they may trade the pick, but what position will they be trading for? Got to be a center right? If yes, then why wouldn't they take Kanter??
Didn't they sign Darko to a 4-year contract for $20mil, also Pekovic as a back up C?
Also Kahn had been very public about how high he is on Darko (Ref: Kahn's infamous interview with Webber).
So I think picking Kanter would just be too akward...
.. but then again it's Kahn we're talking about here, anything's possible..

I'd play hardball with Cleveland if they REALLY want Kanter. O'Connor should tell them that the Jazz have no problems taking Kanter, and if they want him, it'll cost them their 2012 pick unprotected. No deal? Keep Kanter and start calling Toronto and Washington.

Chad Ford Draft chat from earlier today.
https://espn.go.com/sportsnation/chat/_/id/38575
He says the Jazz will take Alec Burks AND Chris Singleton with the 12th. AMAZING that we can do that.
"Ted (NC)
Is Gordon Hayward a 2 or 3? Shouldn't the Jazz consider putting him at the 2 and drafting a 3 with AK47's contract ending?
Chad Ford (1:34 PM)
They do see him as a 2 which is why I have them taking Chris Singleton at No. 12."
"Matt (Seattle, WA)
Klay Thompson seems like a great fit for the Suns, moreso than Jimmer. Any chance he goes there at #13?
Chad Ford (1:30 PM)
He could. I actually have the Jazz taking Alec Burks in Mock Draft. 3.0. Jimmer is going to the Pacers. But Thompson's shooting ability would make him an attractive fit too."

yeah, he made a boo boo. Think he had us taking Burks with his first one. Even according to DX's Givony, Ford had the most accurate mock last year so he is far from perfect, but he has a lot of contacts and ESPN's money.
No way Cleveland would trade next year's pick unprotected for Kanter. Kanter is still to much of a question mark.

Then keep him. Seems like the three teams below the Jazz are quite enamored with the kid. They may become desperate enough to do an unprotected for him.
I think it's just a mistype. He has the Suns taking Alex Burks and the question was about the Suns.
