Kanter and Gobert couldn't have worked. I say that because Kanter made it clear he wanted out. Realistically anyone could work with another if the entire team has the right attitude and chemistry. That's also why this one wouldn't have worked. However we could have got a lot more than we did in the trade. Its apparent they didn't shop him until the last minute. If they would've started in December they could have had a valuable asset in exchange for him.
I will tell you this, Westbrook the probable MVP of this season has trust in Kanter and passes him the ball but the chucker Burke often ignored Enes. How you explain this?
When Burke was in the starting lineup, Kanter was the 4th offensive option and I said all.
It is the head coach task to put the players in the ideal conditions to succeed.
Except the Wolves would have scored 20 more points...though at least Kanter can hit a few throw I guess.
That Westbrook is an infinitely better player that Burke is?

Kanter 15/10 in the first quarter against the Lakers .. geez i hope OKC commit a tonne of $$$ to him and get saddled with his baggage long term
Scott Brooks really is the best coach for Kanter.
He is a simple coach who runs simple stuff and tells Kanter to do simple things. Kanter hardly even takes jumpers in OKC's offense. They just tell him to get buckets under the rim and use his body to get offensive boards. Kanter is a center and OKC treats him like that on offense. I think Utah tried to hard to make him a floor spreader when his jumper isn't really that consistent and it kind of hurt his game.

His game has shrunk. He is doing less stuff offensively and focusing more on a few things. The problem in Utah was that he was trying to expand his skills instead of focusing on his strengths.
