The problem with Kanter is since he is such a negative on defense, he basically has to average these numbers over an entire season to make him a net positive.

But our team as presently constructed needs offensive Fire power. If Kanter hadn't gone off tonight we lose this game by double digits. We were literally overmatched by the Bucks at every other position other than maybe hayward. So until we get some wings healthy, developed, or in a trade, we need Kanter.

I've been on the trade Kanter bandwagon for a while. And still am mostly because I don't think we can match what someone is going to offer him this summer. However, if we unload Kanter and don't get a good offensive weapon for the perimeter in return, we might not win another game this season.

Playing hayward with a bunch of rookies and d leaguers isn't a recipe for success. We flat out can't score without Hood and Burks.

We could have shaq and malone in their primes and still suck because we must rely on such poor perimeter players. Bless their hearts they play hard. But they ain't any good.

If Hayward goes down this team will struggle to score 60 pts in a game. Defense wins championships but you first need an offense to just get into the playoffs.
 
If Kanter averages 25 points and 15 rebounds until the trade deadline (regardless of defense, passing or actually winning games) what is his trade value? Even as a RFA, I think he'd be pretty coveted. Al Jefferson cost the Jazz 2 first round picks after a torn ACL. Somebody's going to throw some money at him this offseason. If the Jazz are okay matching that, then they should work the rest of the season to figure out the best Gobert/Favors/Kanter rotation for the future. Love the guy, but I still think Favors is better because he's more of a 2 way player. As such, I'm hoping that the Jazz move him for a star wing player that can score.

25 and 15 is a bit much to ask. 20 and 12 maybe.
 
I think we get great value at 18/12. Great considering our fan base thinks he's worth a shot glass of Sunny D.
 
Guys, did you know that this game was one of few broadcast in Australia (per Bucks forums)? Maybe it partly explains why Exum played with more aggression than usual?
