Best part is, no one is mentioning that OKC the past 5 years has been an above average Defensive team. Since the trade, they have been well below average defensively. I am not trying to call Kanter out but we knew what we had with him and that he wasn't going to be here without paying big. Lindsey got a 1st round pick, high 2nd round pick, a solid prospect overseas, and a bench/development player.
With Kanter here we would have had to spend at least 12M (Probably more) to keep him. Instead we get to see Rudy develop and then can offer him the money instead. If we would have kept him, Rudy was gone and I hope everyone has come to realize this.
