Kanter traded to OKC

[Saint Cy of JFC]

This gives us cap space for a max deal this summer, right? This is HUGE. We could go overpay a Wes Matthews before the cap jumps.

Trading Kanter = tanking is done. It's time to BUILD. Love it.

MIDDLETON!!!!

I know 100% certain we have to be getting a pick.

I'm just guessing on Lamb though. Seems like there has to be another plyer involved, right?

Probably Detroit pick plus Lamb or PJ3 or something small like that.

Sounds like probably

Pistons First + Cap space

Free agency here we come

Kanter could be great on OKC, let's not kid. He is going to have a ton of misses to rebound from Westbrook, KD, and Dion chucking up shots. He will be worth it for them just as a rebounder in stretches alongside Ibaka or Adams.

I don't disagree. All I was saying is that OKC might be better off bringing him off the bench, and that Kanter's scoring numbers may dip playing next to Westbrook and Durant.

MIDDLETON!!!!

Yep. This is by far the best thing about this trade. We will likely sign someone pretty decent this year.

Our local reporters can't scoop ice cream much less this stuff.

OKC can't trade a first rounder. ****ty.


Also, we could have gotten IT with draft picks. He went for Clevelands 2016. We certainly could have had him for GSW's 2017 and multiple of the dozen 2nd rounders DL owns.

Pretty clear sign that the Jazz are all in on Exum and consider him to have superstar potential. That was reported earlier in the year (how high the Jazz were on Exum), but seems like this is really proof.

Probably, but he will be comfortable with their system....... since they have none. Kanter is an easy fit. He will be asked to get offensive rebounds and the occasional post up in mismatches. They won't even care if he doesn't pass!

You should change your handle to Walking Schtick. srs

And they have Brooks as coach, so Kanter won't be held accountable for his terrible defense! He must be stoked.

 

[Sexual Favors]

Please tell me we are getting more than a contract we are buying out!?

 

[olden_undercover]

no need ,just cuz Kanter is hated in Utah ,doesn't mean that will happen when he leaves
probably means Exum will be the next whipping boy
Hayward to Kanter to Exum

Dude, he was NOT hated in Salt Lake, and I'm sure he won't be hated in OKC either. For the record, I liked the kid, and so did most of the Jazz fans on this forum. But that was some sh** whining to the media like that, and as a result nobody is all that sad that the Kanter era is officially over.
