Enes also feels like he's supposed to await his turn. I've never gotten a straight answer whether that's because of the coaches' message, vets, or just his culture.

Someone on here said its a cultural thing. I don't doubt that but he seemed very confident and like he belonged when at UK. He's been playing like a girl, imo. Not weak, just shy.

I have a theory that it is big al and his stupid *** hazing. You can say Kanter needs to step up, regardless, but I say just stop hazing a dude who is struggling with confidence.

Dead serious. I'll try and find it. Cant remember if I read it or heard it in an interview.

I think it might have been an interview with David Locke. Locke is the one that always brings up how brutal Al is to Kanter.
 
The more I think about it, it was Locke saying that Al had told him that, Not an actual interview with Al. I think anyways.

I laughed, really.

UGLI could have said, "Oh wait, I remember that wrong, didn't happen."
and you would have said,
"Uhhhhhhh, in that case, Al needs to seriously **** off. ****ing idiot."
 
I do think the combination of his cultural upbringing (MUCH more respect shown to elders/vets) with hazing has an impact with a kid that is concerned with being a good teammate.

Now he needs to get over it and punch Al in the face if he has to..

Al said in an interview that he wont stop because last season wasnt a full season so it doesnt count.

Get off my team Albert! @##$%#

If he said it I have a hard time believing he was serious. As much as we are frustrated with Al I've repeatedly heard his teammates say that he's the funniest guy on the team.

UGLI is definitely right, Al was talking about the froshing continuing PAST this season, since there were only 66 games.


Keep in mind, Kanter said that he didn't talk to any of his teammates UNTIL they started picking on him. So quit looking at this so negatively. If there is anyone who wants Kanter to succeed on that team, I could guarantee you that its Al. The guy has an enormous heart.
