They seem like they're about to get desperate for a center. There just aren't any available.

yep

yep

Oh good lord, you really really should start watching games of all the other teams in the NBA. Is Kanter good??? No. Could he be? Anybody could be. He isn't feared by any center or power forward or any position by any player with any any team in the NBA. Unless Kwame Brown starts playing again.

With Derrick Favors signing long term cheap contract and Rudy Gobert playing great for backup center Kanter is odd man out and I would be surprised if he is on roster for much longer. I think Hawks or Bucks would fit Kanter.

yep

LOL ... wow.. you make me laugh boi.

Not so fast. If Kanter can slim down and be a lot more mobile - he can still play the offensive/stretch 4 type role in the NBA. His strength is that he does have a pretty nice & consistent stroke, and a potential to step out and hit the 3pt shot.



As long as he's not made to play the Center position where he's required to main the paint, he can still be a productive player in this league.

Kanter would be playing more time @ the 5 if we didn't have Favors. In fact he was more effective last year in lineups where he was paired with a smaller big(Evans) than a larger one(favors). He's a banger that makes him more of a 5. He isn't a rim protector but his D in the paint is much better than his pick and roll d. He is a big. He can play both the 4 & the 5 but he showed us last year that he is better as a 5.
