What's new

Enes Kanter maybe 6th Man, Comparable to the Best 6th Man of All Time.

Favors/Gobert
Millsap/Kanter/Evans
Hayward/Carroll/Williams
OJ Mayo/Burks
Burke/Tinsley/McNeal

More likely:
Favors/Gobert
Millsap/Kanter/Evans
Hayward/Carroll/Williams
Foye/Burks
Mo/Burke/Tinsley
Jazz will (love it or hate it) bring back Mo, Foye and one big.(hopefully not to start for long)
 
Most 6th man winners are All Stars or the first 1-2 guys "snubbed" and are usually high energy wings. Kanter isn't that guy yet, and isn't an athletic wing.
 
After reading the Millsap news, and if he were to return with him starting at PF and Derrick at C, Kanter would become the sixth man. I thought that was stupid to have someone picked as high as Kanter be a sixth man, so I checked to see if there were any sixth men that were picked as high. There was one that I found. The best sixth man of all time none-the-less taken 3rd in 1980. Kevin McHale. So I started watching videos of him and I'll be damned if him and Enes don't have the same game. Enes is bigger and more physical of course, but still.

Look at this video of McHale and tell me you don't see it.

....the difference is that McHale had a brain in his head! Kanter may have thrown his to the hogs!

if Millsap resigns, he will become the 6th man in his 2nd year of that contract & it should be noted to him in those discussions.
 
Kanter is the only guy we can run our offense through. It's not like we have Larry Bird to experiment with.
 
Milsap is to small, you have to play BIG to succeed.

Iam missing AL, we do not now if he will return and that hurts.
