Too many serious draft discussions around here lately - I think it's a good time to take a break and look at something a bit light-hearted.

Turkoglu's interview had him saying that he would like Kanter to go to Utah so that he can be looked after by Okur...

Kanter still looks like the man. If he is a false idol I will be very disappointed, but at least we have Bismack or Knight to fall back on.
 
I think it's interesting that Turkoglu and Kanter could be going up against each other next year as they could both potentially be playing the PF position.
 
i wanna make some things clear,

This tv program was 3 weeks ago, and Hedo stated he didnt see Kanter playing ball at all, i think at 0.20, but i didnt see it in subtitle, anyway his idea was in general, Kanter would do better near any other turkish player getting help and adopting to the league, especially near memo since he is more experienced. And im sure Hedo would be helping Kanter a lot because he is a very responsible guy and he did guide Turkish rookies this year. He opened some basketball club for his name in Turkey recently.

Anyway later on in this tv program, the guy with some fat (not the one with glasses) was talking more logical and saying that, 'I would not like Kanter to go to Utah cuz they have too strong big man rotation, he wont get enough mins' and there is another guy who didnt show up in this video, another commentator, who is a big Jerry sloan fan, and its obvious he has big symphaty to Jazz (when commentating games he always criticizes referees giving bad calls to utah jazz) , so this guy was telling, " I would love him to go to Jazz, becuz he would fit in the system very well, and i think the current big men in the rotation are expandable, (meaning Millsap and Jefferson) , i think jazz fans doesnt love Jefferson that much, so he may get traded if Kanter has good performance "

And also yesterday, there was the same tv program and the other turkish player in Cleveland (Semih Erden) was the guest this time. So they talked with him about Kanter as well. (They talk about Kanter in general every week anyway).
Semih was telling, he thinks his team will pick Irving first, thats what he heard, and they were asking him about Kanter, and the managers are trying to figure out his personaliy mostly, since he is an unknown. And he stated that he told them, they played in same club in Turkey (Fenerbahce) , Kanter is 5 yrs younger than him and he was playing in youth team of same club and he was very respecting to us, older players. But Semih also told that, he didnt like Kanters comment about he wishes to play in Washington, mostly becuz u cant choose a team , ure in nba platform , u should give ur best in any team. Anyway he would wish him to come to Cleveland so that he could help him.

I may enter more details about ystrdays tv show if anyone wanna hear
