Kanter traded to OKC

[♪alt13]

Jody Genessy @DJJazzyJody

The Thunder included ex-Arizona PF Grant Jerrett in the three-way deal, per @DarnellMayberry. So it's possible he could be headed to Utah.


wtf is going on? I'm so confused. What exactly did we get? Does anyone Know?

Can't believe a rare 3rd pick is gone so soon as a universal fact.

Everyone knows that you are playing the "I am Turkish but I try to be objective, a.k.a. I bash Enes Kanter" card.

STOP THIS A$$ kissing. We got it!

I'm not talking about Kanter right now. I wished he would stay in Utah but he won't. No need to discuss about it. He is gone and I hope the best for both sides.
JUST STOP being like this.
You are ridiculous as those Turkish Enes Kanter fans who think Kanter is made of gold. You are the same, just in opposite direction.

Does anyone really know what we got besides Perkins?

 

[NCJazz]

this is true. there is plenty of time for the thunder to implode.

If he does not Westbrook/Durant/Ibaka/Adams/Kanter (if re-signed),Waiters, and a good two guard could easily still be a top 10 team then.

 

[Handlogten's Heros]

Nor should it be. As someone alluded earlier, sunk costs are sunk costs.

So we got more draft picks, at some point we need to turn these into some good veterans who can help the team. We can't be perpetually young and win.

People don't understand sunk costs... in life or basketball.

Seems like the first rounder is OKC's. I think this was a **** trade for the Jazz. Indeed, if I understand correctly, we will have to pay Perkins for the buyout. Kanter obviously had his flaws, but the dude was young and had legitimate skills. What we got was worthless in the scheme of things. I think it would have been better to try to work on the relationship and see where it takes you. The guy hadn't been a cancer in the lockerroom and I have faith that Quin could keep him in line. Disappointed!

What an *******. Go slurp draino.

 

[Jamezz]

Yes, the problem is we had no control over the price and we had no control over Enes' desires. Do you really want a disgruntled player who doesn't want to be here with the team?

You hit the nail, people never take into account team chemistry. One bad piece can blow up the whole system on any given team. Some teammates were already expressing 'surprise' about Kanter's words, to not use a different adjective of course...

we better sign an amazing player this summer

This upcoming FA and the next capspace is super important. The Jazz need to make a big signing either now or next year so we can overpay to a player who won't be overpaid in the future, if that makes sense.

I don't get why this is so hard to understand. This summer is the last summer Utah will have a chance to be relevant. Resigning Kanter dooms us to a second round playoff exit at best. This move gives us a chance to win a title. This summer is HUGE for this organization. Between the draft pick and cap space, this is Utah's last chance to significantly get better. Why waste that on Kanter? Plus you tell me this move will get us a better pick this year, plus a pick in the future, plus max cap space?

I'm in. This is a great trade.

 

[Bawse Dawg]

Not a very good trade... But at least Kanter is gone.

Now that Enes is finally gone....I want to know from where arrives all this hate for Kanter! I suspect it is something related to his religion...

We will regret roughly of this trade! Millsap became All-Star out from Utah...Korver the same....Matthews one of the best 3pt shooters in the league...and now we gifted Kanter for peanuts.
