Where do you think Enes Kanter would go in the 2012 draft?

If it were a draft on who could kick other players asses physically, my money would be on Kanter. Kanter would be a good choice in that draft.

In a basketball draft, if he got picked number 3 to a crappy team where he could start and get minutes, he wouldn't be a bad pick at all. He's only 19 and he's probably the main reason for the extinction for Tasmanian Tigers (I just did something David Locke would do. I tried way too hard on that.)

whatcha drinkin'? Makers Mark for me ....
 
Around 10 or 12 I guess. It's not a lockout season and players would be more experienced than him to leave him behind if they also have the size. But the majority says round 5. Well, seems like Kanter is a guy of expectations after all. I wonder if he expects some more playing time from his coach nowadays...

He is a whole inch shorter than Kanter.

*According to DX*

Wasn't saying he would necessarily get drafted ahead of Kanter, but teams would definitely think about it. I still think Sullinger compares favorably to Kevin Love.

I don't at all. Love had and still has the insane work ethic to totally transform his body and develop his game. If Sullinger transforms his body, it'll likely be some fat on top of his already impressive belly. Not even close to a fair comparison imo.

Did you not see his body freshman year vs. this year? He has already done a ton to transform his body. Love was still pretty overweight until this season.
 
Kanter would have been a beast in college. Too hard to project that though. He's very slow running the court and that would have been exposed, but so would his incredible strength.
 
I think Sullinger at his best could be "Luis Scola" type player. I've heard rumors that he has back problems and that has caused him to be less aggressive this year. Back problems in a young player is not good. I think the school is still out on Kanter. He has shown flashes of brillance, but still has a long way to go to play like a #3 pick.

I don't remember where to find the article but Sullinger has a significant difference in leg length between his legs. Supposedly it contributed to his back problems.

As for the topic at hand I think Kanter would be a late lottery pick in this draft.
