It is. Sucks that nearly the entire team sucked today. I'm not singling Kanter out as him being the worst-- just think you're being disingenuous with how you're describing his play today.

Kanter played well. Especially for his first game back. Check the box score. Stats might not tell the whole story but they do mean something. Also who in the rockets killed us? Was it kanters man? I think we had alot of turnovers right? How many did kanter have?

I actually I made the originally post silly when I said that kanter kept us afloat for a stretch in the first half. You disagreed. I went back and checked and found that I was correct

Yet you went back and said nothing to disprove my point. Meaning i'm probably correct.

Do you not understand how team defense works? If PG/SGs are coming off picks and they're slicing towards the rim, it's up to the 4 and the 5 to stop them. Yet we're saying that we are supposed to judge how Kanter played defensively purely off of the points scored by a center who was guarded by two other centers (both of which are among the best defenders in the NBA)?

Ridiculous, dude.

Didn't see him have very many, if any. Good for him.

Off this logic tho, Elliot Williams had fewer turnovers than Millsap. Which of the two should we keep?

Lol.
I went back and watched the part that I was taking about when I made my original post talking about kanter keeping us afloat for a stretch in the first half. Then I came back to watch the rest of the game.

I wish that I didn't delete the game already and I would go back and watch all the second quarter.

I think sometimes people believe something about a player and so then when they watch the game they tend to see the things that they want to see to confirm thier opinion

Play hard or sit on the bench. It's not a novel idea.

But I didn't really see the Jazz playing soft (exept Exum). They just sucked. Williams most of all. Favors was our best player by far tonight, and he sat on the bench forever. I thought someone mentioned that he may have been injured, so that might explain it. I don't see a clear message to the team by playing Williams and throwing in the towel when McHale brought his starters back in. We had it down to 9 with about six minutes left. He took Rudy out, the Rockets starters came back, Williams guarded Harden, game over. If Quin brings in Favors and Hayward with Millsap on the quart, who knows. Maybe he just chose to rest his players.

I'm saying that when kanter was on the court in the first half the jazz played the rockets pretty even.
I wonder if you understand that scoring points help win games too.
