What's new

The Lakers, Kevin Love and the Utah Jazz

His per 36 from the year before was calculated mostly against second to third tier competition. His per 36 this year was against first tier competition, and some second tier. The fact that he was able to post similar numbers against better competition after being robbed of an offseason, starting the year a little out of shape and timid, and being jerked around minutes wise (he'd have games where he played 40 mins, and then the next game he'd play 12, which it makes it impossible for his game to have any rhythm), are reasons to celebrate, not despair.

Your takes are sad.

Are you serious? This post sounds like the kids mom in here to defend him. "But...., but......., if my son would have had the ability to play 40 mins a game he would dominate"

Dude, Kanter's ceiling is at tops an average pro. He'll never be an All-Star. Book it son.

You are an idiot. I just point out the facts that you and other members of the "sky is falling club" constantly neglect.

He already is an above average pro. His PER is 15.70, while 15 is the cutoff for above average. You're crazy if you think that he has reached his ceiling at 21, given his history. Absolutely nuts. Do yourself a favor and go read his scouting report over at Draftexpress. The kid is right where he should be given his experience. The Jazz know what they were drafting, and they did it because of his tremendous upside.

Sorry, that was a little harsh I apologize. Crown, you saying "Randle is Kanter's little cousin potential wise", and PKM's instant karma on his dislike for MCW last year and his unreasonable dislike for Randle this year has lead me to lash out....most likely the Crown though (I still think PKM is a great poster).

This is the thing SF, you love Jabari...what about his **** defense? I just can't believe some of the stupidity that comes out of one of the most knowledgeable basketball fanbases....must be BYU fans? Anyways, have a nice night. I still think Randle is the 2/3rd best player in this draft and he'll prove it, he'll be an All-Star, Kanter...nope.

I accept your apology.


Maybe you are confusing me with someone else, but I have made many-a-posts concerning Jabari's atrocious defense, and how I think he is wrong for our team based on pace, etc.

Traditionally, I don't like tweeners unless they are tweeners in a good way like A. Gordon, having size, athleticism, and handles for either the 3 or 4. Randle and Jabari scare me. Randle most, because he is redundant on our team, and a complete waste of a tank.

Also, I am not a BYU fan. I went to Westminster College. Blue and Red don't concern me.

The point being... you still think Kanter will be a better pro then Randle, That's not gonna happen. If you have a chance to package Kanter, #23 and other considerations to have Randle and our first pick wherever that may be, you make that trade.

Randle is going to be a much better pro then Kanter, it's just that simple.

What proof do you have that Randle will have a better career than Kanter? Kanter is 21, which means we don't even know how his career is going to turn out, let alone compare it with someone who hasn't even played in the nba. Randle's defense that he showed in college isn't any better than how Kanter played on that side of the floor. There are too many variables to claim such a wild idea, which to me makes your creditability go down the crap shoot.

Being Sorry for Jabari

Hi BYU fan

Nuff said
 
You want to give up our two best prospects for the #6 pick? Is you crazy? Alec and Kanter didn't reqlly get a fair shake under Corbin. Trust me, there best days are ahead of them.

Kanter is far better than Randle right now, and has a higher ceiling based on size, touch and athleticism.

Trading Burks is just plain stupid. These two will be the best of our current core in three years. Book it.

I dig the outside of the box thinking of the original post, but yeah, I'd rather just keep the guys we have and hopefully add a top 4 pick to it. I think a creative coach can get more out of Kanter and Burks.
 
Would you trade one to move up for Wiggins/Parker?

I would for sure, and I like them both. Hell I love Burks.

But I desperately want the Jazz to get a franchise level player, and I think either of those guys will suffice there.
 
Too much.

I agree

Burks, kanter, and 23 for budinger and randle?

Burks and budinger are pretty even as players, but i give the slight edge to burks (with burks having a lot more potential than budinger)

Kanter and randle are pretty even, but again i think a slight edge goes to kanter (potential being pretty even)

And we just give em a first round pick in one of the deepest drafts in a long time just for the hell of it?

No thanks
