Gotta love the homers for these people...

To homers, Knight's ceiling is limitless. They ignore his lack of PG skills, athleticism, and shot selection. They think that since he played under Cal that he's Rose or something.
Kanter meanwhile, is the next big thing. He's going to be at least as good as Love or Boozer. In reality, maybe he'll be Al Horford (ugh... Not very good folks).

This draft sucks.

I disagree. We have no idea what these guys will be able to do good or bad. Kanter could be a very good big. He could also be a complete bust. Knight could be a very good PG. He could also be a bust. We won't have any idea until we see them in action against other NBA players.
 
I'll admit I have warmed up to Kanter a bit, but I still support Knight over Kanter. The Jazz will have a tough choice on their hands.

Knight is going to be special. If Cleveland gets both Williams and Knight, I'm going to be pissed.

Kyrie Irving could still be awesome. As far as I'm concerned, the only wrong pick for our team is Kanter. We just don't need that redundancy.

Another big. Assuming we're note actively shopping one or more of them already. 96 minutes / 5 people is a terrible idea.

If we draft Kanter to keep him I dont think there is any doubt that we will look to trade one of our other bigs.

Painful as it may be, it has to be Millsap. Unless he can suddenly play SF.

Actually, that's what we should do.

Draft Kanter. So Jefferson, Favors, Kanter as our 3 main bigs.

Keep Millsap as our SF.

Done.
 
Hello all.

I'm a Turkish user, who also has his doubts about Kanter's NBA future. Mainly because he didn't face any real competition in the USA, as you guys suggested. But you should not overlook his dominance against the biggest Euro prospects of his age group. Check his numbers in 2009 U18 EC against Lithuanian Valanciunas (35/19 vs 14/5) & (22/12@20/5); and against Serbian Dejan Musli (32/25 vs 14/11). And as for another comparison I've seen here: European bball fans will tell you, Koufos was nowhere as dominant.

Anyway, good luck to the Jazz in the draft.
 
I really like how Kanter catches the ball up high and keeps the ball up high for the finish, it seems instinctual for him. Skilled bigs are had to come by, I mean imagine if Fesenko had hands like that when he was 19.
