What's new

the ever-changing feelings about Enes Kanter

A 6'11" PF/C who can hit mid-range jumpers, grab offensive boards, score in the paint, move the ball and run the floor is a decent asset to have. I really don't think he's holding the team back. What the Jazz need is a consistent scorer and creator on the perimeter.

Honestly, that's not how I would describe enes. He's been bad from midrange, has been underwhelming rebounding the ball, and is a ball-stopper. Not saying he won't improve, but I am far from describing him as you have.

...which is why I think we should get a decent haul for him.
 
To those of you that are super high on Fabors, but wanting to ship Kanter out already, here's some perspective.

Kanter has only logged 3907 minutes in 3 years time, while Favors has logged 6684. The scouting report on Kanter warned the GM that took him that they would need to be incredibly patient with his development because of his severe lack of experience. It is going to take time folks.

Favors played AAU, HS, Georgia Tech, and has averaged 23.4 minutes a game since entering the league, and 30.1 this year. Kanter came to the game late as a teen, played little HS, no college, was ruled ineligible to even practice with the KU team, then came into the league and had a coach like Ty who couldn't be bothered with him for hist first two years. Kanter has only averaged 18.6 minutes per with a **** ton of DNP's, and is only getting 26 mins this year. Their experience and development has been vastly different, and should be treated as such.

Patience.

The whole "a player is who is by his 4th year" rule doesn't truly apply to Kanter. Jazz shouldn't consider trading him until after his 5th or 6th year if they are concerned with establishing and getting his value. They couldn't honestly say they know who he is any sooner. He is now in his third.

Patience.

Yeah, but Favors is way better.

So your point behind all the other ******** excuses is that kanter is more valuable than favors. You will have a very hard time selling that to anyone outside of this board.
