Let's show em' how it's done in Detroit tonight

In Greg Monroe's worst season (his rookie season where he played 28 mpg), he had 11 less assists than Enes Kanter has had for his career.

LOL @ Kanter being on the same level as Monroe.
 
There's actually no question than Monroe is better than Kanter. We shouldn't even be talking about it. But I don't like a frontcourt of Favors and Monroe.
 
So how exactly were we able to obtain Ingles?

Clippers waived him in preseason going after some other players. We picked him up off waivers. Clippers said they were disappointed that we did that because they were going to try and resign him.
 
Kanter continues to be the odd-one out with this team. His offense is great, but it's unnecessary to us. We bleed buckets every time he steps onto the court.
Good way to put it
 
I agree that Burks needs to step up and play with more confidence, but he did do a good job defensively on Jennings in the 4th. The Detroit PGs simply abused Trey, especially because he's not good at rolling through or around the screens. However, you saw Exum doing it, and playing much better D than Trey. If Trey isn't hitting his shots, he's worthless out there. But with Exum, he doesn't have to score to be valuable because he does other things.
 
Monroe didn't make, or miss all of his shots while he was guarded by Kanter. That's why saying he was 8/18 is being intellectually dishonest in regards to Kanters defense. By Hantlers

This is weird. First I never said Kanter guarded him the entire time. I don't know how that makes me intellectually dishonest. But whatever. You cannot deny that while Kanter was in he guarded one of the three Piston bigs all of which shot less than 50% tonight. That is pretty good defense or poor shooting.

As for the other question. I do prefer Kanter to Monroe, but that was not the question. The question was do you trade Kanter and Burke for Monroe. I would not trade Kanter for Monroe straight up because you cannot re-sign Monroe. You still have a chance to re-sign Kanter for less than the max. Kanter is a restricted free agent and Monroe will be a unrestricted free agent. And, why would anyone add Burke just for the heck of it?

Yeah, I know. It just seems crazy that he went from waiver wire to getting meaningful minutes on the Jazz almost instantly. The scouting department was nails there. . .
 
Enes Kanter is like two different players right now...
