This is like Boozer all over again (and Kanter isn't even in that category). Enes might put up 16 pts/per, but he gives up way more on the other end. Maybe the Jazz can score 5 more points with him on the court. But is a 110-100 loss better than keeping a game in the 90's and a lot closer with a player who is much better defensively? His offense is really meaningless.Really, though, the issue with Kanter is that he's a tweener. His offensive game is inside, but defensively he can't guard the post. But he can't platy the 4 because he doesn't have the range on his shot. Not saying he can't change and progress during the season, but I think the likelihood is remote. What the Jazz need to do, IMO, is keep Favors and Gobert inside. Both are rim protectors. Then they need to find a younger version of Marvin Williams to bring in at the 4: a decent defender who can hit the corner-3.
