I don't see how Kanter can succeed as a Jazz

He is pretty much put in a position to fail right now. Might as well trade him right now, they just going to give him spot minutes here and there. He is so anxious to contribute, and that often leads him to rush or have a turnover. His confidence and rhythm is shot. Imagine you went from a future starting big of the team to now he can't get get 15 minutes as a sixth man on the worst team in the league. And the moment he makes a mistake he got yanked. They are putting him a position to fail, might as well give him up for someone else.

Disagreed. He's so young and inexperienced. He is clueless defensively in terms of playing within a team concept. This was all expected when we took him IMO. Never really played at a high level until he got to NBA as a 19 year old. Impossible to succeed being that raw. He's shown too great of flashes to cut him loose before we can see what he's capable of with a few years in the league under his belt.
 
Well lets see. His stat line right now is 0 points 0-1 with 2 TO's and a Foul in 6 minutes. And while he was on the floor we lost a 14 point lead. I would pull him also plus every one he is playing with.

He is just coming back from an injury. I don't see his current minutes or roll being the norm for the rest of the season. So I would say no. Hang on to him and let him get his game back

My main issue with his defense is that he looks like he has no idea what he's doing when he comes out to defend the pick and roll, but that looks like it is actually part of the jazz's team concept so i don't think it's an issue
 
Hayward struggled 5-6 games in a row but he still got the same minutes!

Kanter struggled 2-3 games and he has been moved to bench directly!
 
I think benching him has destroyed his confidence. He doesn't look like the same player he was at the beginning of the year.
 
Hayward played like complete garbage for multiple games and he was able to play it through. How can you learn without being on the floor? isn't that what this season is about anyways? that we will lose tons of game so that our core can learn and grow.
 
Do yall see kanter in practice? Got to be a reason wh yhe don't get much tick. I know the truth is because he isn't good an the sooner you realize this the sooner you can move on. The first step to recovery is to admit you have a problem. So just admit that he isn't very good and was a wasted pick
 
I saw Kanter guarding a point gurad at least twice today and a pick wasn't even set.
I get that we don't like Corbin and all for playing Marvin, but Kanter just can't make these stupid mistakes.
Alec has learned well, now it's time for Enes.

1 of them was against Brooks and it was either guard him or leave him open. Not his fault. I don't remember the other one though.
