Kanter Had Knee Surgery

Haha. Obviously. That is the same procedure boozer was always getting. It shall hence forth be known as the defense ruining injury

But Boozer was such a good player.

4-6 weeks takes you to June I guess? Not a problem if you are willing to work hard off season. We shall see. Also he will play NT I guess this time. There will be approximately 3 months before national team basketball. If I were him, I would practice some volleyball.

3 months!?! Dammit, at least there is euroleague playoffs now but I thought it was closer.
 
Isn't that one of those routine procedures bigs get to clean out their knees? I think Andrew Bynum used to have it too?
 
Nick Collison, Serge Ibaka, Joakim Noah, Russel Westbrook, Blake Griffin, Kobe Byrant, Jason Kidd, Chris Webber, Andrew Bogut, TMAC, and Kenyon Martin are some of the peeps that have gotten it I believe.
 
Its arthroscopic not a torn ligament. Kanter wanted to have this procedure done earlier but the Millers advised against it. His agent is kinda dumb and was selling it to other teams as Kanter will come back stronger and be a top pick and roll defender with the increased lateral quickness explosion. Teams saw it as a risk which is why the Jazz couldnt get anything for him. If Max Ergul could have shut his mush we coulda gotten a lot more back.

I wish Millers would have just let him get the surgery when he first needed it.

Can you give a source about his agent selling that he will be a top pick and roll defender with increased lateral quickness explosion? Serge Ibaka was playing elite defense before he had his procedure done. I have a time time believing Kanter will go from one of the worst before surgery to "a top pick and roll defender" after surgery.

I did say Max Ergul is an idiot but I can understand the line of reasoning if Kanter truly was playing that injured. He did look to lumber a lot so I can buy it. He couldn't run the floor and looked to be favoring an injury by bending his knees more and running on the pads of his toes instead of more flat footed.
