Bold Prediction on Kanter

Agreed.
So Burks is the next Micheal Jordan.
Kanter is the next Hakeem Olajuwon.
Hayward is the next Larry Bird.
Favors is Wilt Chamberlain.

Haha. Yep

Thats how I feel about them. I can't help it. Im a homer. No shame in admitting it.

Ty isn't just going to turn Kanter loose, not his style, and if we're going to be real, didn't it take D-Will 4 damned years to be recognized as an Allstar. There's also the Utah factor. Even if he does break out it will take longer for players in Utah to get noticed, and there are a lot of talented proven Allstars in the west. I say 4 or five years from now considering all the the road blocks that stand in his way, plus I'm still not convinced he will be better then Favors.

For Utah to get two guys in the same Allstar game like Favors and Kanter, they'd have to be top 50 all-time kind of players like Stockto and Malone. Also don't forget Hayward who has less competition to making an Allstar game.

Burks- Jordan
Hayward- Bird
Kanter- Malone
Favors- Bill Russell

Agree, except can we choose someone else for Burks instead of MJ. still bitter. I want to like Burks ya know. How about Jerry West for Burks.
 
Burks:
Realistic case: A cross between Corey Magette and Evan Turner
Best case: Dwyane Wade past his prime/older days

Hayward:
Realistic case: Between Mike Miller and Hedo Turkoglu
Best case: Manu Ginobili

Favors:
Realistic case: Tyson Chandler
Best case: Somewhere between a younger and rawer Amare Stoudemire and Tyson Chandler

Enes Kanter:
Realistic case: A more athletic, smoother Nikola Pekovic/Zach Randolph
Best case: Karl Malone past his prime/older days

I think that hayward is already better than mike miller ever was and probably about as good as hedo was, so im confident he will pass up his "realistic case".
The other comparisons are pretty good..... although i think there should be a different best case for kanter. (i dont know who though, so i guess malone works as well as anyone.)

Corrected:

Burks = Magic Johnson (MJ didn't play PG)
Kanter = Karl Malone (he'll be with Utah for 18 years)
Hayward = LeBron James (Bird didn't have the athleticism to get a chase down block)
Favors = Bill Russell (sorry, but Derrick will never "score" like Wilt, especially off the court)

I like the switch for Hayward to Lebron. I should have thought of that. But I think Ill stick with Jordan for Burks until I can think of something else. Magic wasn't an acrobat player like Burks and Jordan.
