It appears we are buying out Perkins. So in essence we traded the No. 3 pick in the draft and a cornerstone for nothing? Is the tank back on? Are we bringing in a big from the DLeague?
 
Yeah we need something else back or this is pretty terrible in my opinion.

Maybe Evans will actually play?
 
Favors, Gobert, Booker, and apparently Evans is our 4th big. Looks like we're a pretty strong bet to go big somewhere in the 1st round of the draft.

I dunno - I like it. Fav and Rudy are the future frontcourt, let the kids play.

Cooley last night had a 25 point 20 rebound game vs. the Spurs DLeague team. Perhaps he gets a call to SLC on a 10 day?

Cornerstone? Why does everyone keep bringing up that Kanter was a the 3rd pick? Kanter is not a good NBA basketball player today.

See his advanced stats

VORP (Value over replacement player) -0.8

In other words a average replacement player would be 0.8 point per game better.

BPM (Box score plus minus) -4.5

Win Shares/48 0.81


For comparison Valanciunas


VORP 0.4
BPM -0.9
WS/48 0.190

Also his attitude was making it clear he wasn't going to develop and grow into a good player here.
