Enes Kanter Appreciation Thread.

I still think he's our best PF. He needs to learn the plays, learn to pass and keep the ball moving, but he's pretty fluid and not entirely stupid for a guy that size. His reactions really aren't slower than Favors'. It's just that Favors has better length. Kanter's the guy that's hard to keep off the offensive glass if someone else on the team can collapse the defense. He'll look much better if the Jazz ever get an alpha player who can achieve that.

Plus, Kanter might actually be able to stretch the floor if he keeps working on his jumper.
 
I've always liked Kanter and hated how he has always been the scapegoat it seems. I get that he isnt as good as we'd hoped, but he's been playing much better recently. I was at the OKC game and you could see him playing with some fire while everyone else was coasting. His defense has improved, although its not great. He has a soft jumper too. Snyder's screamer sparked the Jazz comeback against OKC but Kanter was the player that really helped close the gap in the closing minutes of the 1st half. Be patient and good things will happen with him
 
I'm a Kanter homer like many here. But one thing I am not, is a homer with blinders on. IMHO Kanter is a defensive liability. I hate to say it cause I love his offensive game. But when he is playing, and teams run that high pnr, we are getting killed by the other teams PGs cause Kanter is too slow to rotate. And it's killing us. But Kanter isn't the only one. So not all blame should go to him. But his D does leave a bad taste in my mouth.
 
Snyder risks to undermine Kanter confidence as did his predecessor last season.

By the way he is playing less minutes under Snyder.
