Kanter for???

By the way, anyone remember the twin towers hysteria of just a few years ago? Or the playoffs less than a year ago? I love a big that can spread the floor, but let's not let hysteria dictate the direction of the topic of big play.

By the way part 2: Kanter is a good shooter. I am kind of baffled at the concern that he can't.

Jazz shouldn't be looking to dump any of the young core guys until after the tank and acquisition of a new head coach. That's especially true of Kanter. It amazes me that so many people are all gung-ho to draft Andrew Wiggins based on his potential, but are ready to dump Kanter before getting a chance to see if he reaches his. Patience is required for a team blowup and subsequent shift to young guys.
 
your crazy if you think you can get either Beal or Barnes for him. Oj mayo you could but Washington and golden state are not going trade two talented young players for abench warming stiff like kanter.

Hey look who's back!

Kanter > Klay, Barnes and probably Beal too. Kanter is a 20/10 guy when he asserts himself. That's more valuable than shooting wings.

No Gm would trade Klay, Beal, or barnes for him. These are facts. Eventually potential goes out the window for facts. Fact is kanter is not that good but keep on dreaming that he is
 
I praised the Jazz for the Trey Burks selection so don't act like I come around to just bash the jazz. I just love to talk bball and this board is very active. I praised trey burks early when people around here were calling him a bust after a few summer league games. Kanter just isn't that good. The Gobert trade by the jazz was also a great move.
