What's new

Possible Kanter trades?

What's not adding up is that's not how to evaluate talent. If you actually watched the guy play, you would know that he can shoot, and he is a good player.

The Cavs are just retarded, and didn't give him a legit shot at playing. The Cavs had a log jam at his position and were in a win now mode. He started off the season on a cold shooting streak, and then that's when all the talk him being a bust came about. He was then sent to the bench to rot instead of giving him a chance to develop. Later in the year when he got more shots, he proved he could play.

Bennett is going to be a very good player. Cavs aren't going to just give him away.

You could be right, you could be wrong.

CJ Miles and plenty of others have had a sweet looking shot too, they just didn't put it in at a good rate and the Jazz coaches didn't use him right, amirite?

Hayward starts every season in a "cold shooting streak" and his shot looks pretty sweet. It didn't seem to help him out last year how pretty his form was, it still needs to go in.
Marion has one of the ugliest shots on the planet, but he gets a pass because against all odds he finds a way to be fairly effective in getting his shots to go.

Seeing how good a shot looks sounds good, but it doesn't prove much. It's one small sign in a hundred that it's possible he can find a way to be decent.
 
Centers are meant to be rim protectors and power forwards need to be able to open the floor by hitting from 15 feet or more. I have been saying Kantor, if drafted by us, should be a power forward before he was drafted.

Well with LeBron James (assuming this was a deal with Cleveland) he better suited with a 5 that can stretch the floor. Kanter biggest issue is defense.

You would assume this, but it depends.
In 2012 the Heat had Joel Anthony who didn't really spread the floor.
In 2013 the Heat didn't play a C per se so if Bosh was considered the C, he didn't spread the floor and neither did Haslem.

The people that could spread the floor for the Heat would have been whoever was playing the 1 and 2, and if James slid over to the 4, whoever came in as the 3... but not the 5 or 4 spots.

I chose those years as those are the two championship years.

Why you want big time bruiser slimming down are you crazy? Kanter needs add like 50 pounds muscle and smash mother ****ers like Boss Man Shaquille. He is big like Shack he will play game like brick **** shack

I've always thought Kanter should be about 400 lbs. Kind of like that Baby Shaq guy from Greece:

Embrace the inner bull. That's your game.
 
Yes he did. His role on offense for those teams was to hit 18-20 footers, pulling opposing bigs out of the paint

Which is not as far as the 3pt line, and the guy guarding Haslem wouldn't go even that far out if they were both in.
It wasn't spreading the floor in the sense that most people think of to the 3pt line, it's less than that.
Was it enough, sure, because Lebron is a freak. It doesn't mean the 5 that plays with James has to be able to hit a 3.... and even still Bosh is a 4, not a 5.

Bosh shot 218 3's last season, compared to 309 by Allen, 306 by James, and 210 by Battier.

Last seasons goobers. Talking their 2 championship years.
Even still last year he only hit 34%, which is not terrible but better than the below 30% rates he shot on less attempts in the 12 and 13 championship years.
So last years shots brought his Career 3pt% up to 31%... awesome.
Thanks for clearing that up, might as well just leave him open.

Try to keep up. Trying two hard bros.

What? It was spreading the floor; Bosh's presence pulled defenders out of the paint, creating more space for LeBron and Wade to attack.

Also, its not just the 3 pt. line with Bosh. He is one of the best mid range guys in the game. His guy can't leave him.
