Kanter watch

The last 12 Games of OKC with Kanter = 8-4 = 72 % Team
The last 13 games without Kanter = 5-8 = = 38 % Team

OKC could be the best team in the NBA with everyone healthy on their roster... Ibaka is probably out till the play-offs... It will be nice to see what happens, when Kevin Durant returns into the line up and plays instead of Waiters, or Singler who are shooting beyond 40 percent from the field.

If you want to blame Kanter for how the team is performing.
Kanters dRTG is 105, offensive rating is 118. That is without KD. That Kanter effect doe.

The offense can't get much better. It's not like they are going to start scoring 120 per game. There are only so many offensive possessions in a game.

There is definitely a need for Kanter without Ibaka, but when Durant/Ibaka are back, do they really need Kanter getting over 20 mpg?

I think the way McGary playing for them Kanter fully expendable. Adams, Ibaka, and McGary is good defensive frontcourt that compliments rest of team.
 
I think people sometimes forget how underrated Kevin Durant is defensively. Thats probably because OKC is playing a high paced game, I dont know. When Durant starts instead of Singler who has a per like 4 or 5 since joining the team, it will be also a huge upgrade defensively, not just offensively. With Kanter and Singler, the OKC has 2 liabilities on defense starting. Kanter is putting down elite offense and rebounding out their, meanwhile Singler is doing nothing to help the team...

McGary is the poor mans version of Enes Kanter. He is not a part of the rotation, if every big is healthy. OKC was ready to throw 12 Millions for back-Up point guard in Reggie Jackson. If their is no eastern conferense team throwing +15 Milliones at Enes Kanter, they will probably pay 12-14 Millions to keep him in as their starting center.

Kanter has killed it on offense and the glass for OKC, but he's completely clueless on D. Roberson helps, but just sinks the O too much.

20-10 game for Kanter with a block and an assist so far in the game and there is still a whole quarter left of game. Looks like he getting his wrist looked at went to get it checked out though.
 
He is 17 points, 10 rebounds (5 Offensive), 1.5 assist in just 30 minutes per game since joining the OKC and playing through several little injuries... This trade is really a win and winn situation for both sides...
