Prediction: Jazz trade Kanter for Otto Porter

Hack said:
Cy is correct here. Porter is a good player. It's just circumstances. He isn't getting any minutes, and isn't getting a chance to contribute much.

He is only 21.


It's a trade that makes sense because we could use another wing, and Gobert is gonna have to be a starter one day.


I don't how people can come to the conclusion that players like Otto are busts. If the player isn't playing for some reason then everyone assumes they are no good. It's not true. Look at Tobias Harris. He was written off, then when given his chance he proved he can play.

There are a bunch of guys in the league who are better than their playing time suggests. You gotta be smarter than that.

You and I know that but more importantly Ernie Grunfeld knows that. He's not going to trade a #3 pick that he selected for a #3 pick that someone else selected that has, for the most part, underachieved.

Sometimes dreams are just bull ****.
 
Also, not to hate on Hood (cuz I like him), but Porter's % are way better. Porter is a year younger too and he gets more minutes per game. We could use his efficiency off the bench (or currently starting because of Burks injury problems).

I'm not so sure that GM'S around the league are that down on Kanter. They might look at Otto and Kanter as having similar value. I think it's about the same for them both.

I haven't quite given up on Kanter either. I'm still intrigued about a good he could get. I don't think the book has been written in him yet either.

I'm not even sure I'm a 100% for trading Kanter for Otto. But I would certainly look at it if I were GM. Gobert is the only reason it would make it an easier choice. Without Gobert in the picture, I'd probably say no because we need another big besides Favors.

Probably change it to something to honor his greatness.

How does the name "something" honor porter.

Maybe go with porterhouse instead

4k is legit.

Basically every movie or tv show you've ever seen that wasn't shot on actual film was shot at 4k or higher. So watching something shot at 4k on a 4k monitor only makes sense. It'll be the norm in several years.

But it's true that the human eye can detect the difference in resolution less and less the higher up you go. Most professionals think that anything after 5k isn't detectable (although, things are still shot at 8k today for other reasons, but 8k monitors will probably never be a thing... it'll just stop at 4k most likely).

4k is legit for a monitor because you sit so damn close to it. Not legit for a TV that you view from 10-12 feet away.

oh this is just peachy...
You guyz are talking as if those circumstances were "right" for Kanter "or" as if he is 27.
Kanter is only a few weeks older than Gobert and one year older than "Potto Orter".
