Maybe dominates was a strong word, but he put up numbers (relative to these games).

best games with the worst streams -.-
Is anyone listening to the game with commentary? Are the commentators talking about why Jonas is not playing?
The ESPN3 stream is really good quality, just no commentary.

In most teams veterans get minutes over young players because they are veterans. If Turkey had Gonlum and Erden - Kanter would not get as many minutes as he is getting now. LT coach tries to play small and fast, must be his tactical decision. So as much as I or everybody wants to see Enes vs JV now we will need to wait probably for another year until JV is playing for Raptors. Unless some of LT frontline gets injured or fouls out.

Confidence might not be there, but everything else is. He has excellent form for a big. If I had to describe his game to someone who has never seen him play in four words I would say: Kevin Love on meth.

He is #11. He was #15 for junior team. In friendlies he was #17.

Not sure what the problem is, but if you listen real close you can hear Liam Canny commentating. I hope they get it fixed by the 2nd half.

enes is a great shooter with very solid shooting mechanics. he made some jumpers in the friendly games, but i wonder why he doesn't use his midrange game more often. but he will get confident in his shoot when he doesn't start hesitating. kanter is exactly this type of a player sloan would love to have.
where are they haters talking that enes would be the next bargnani or okur? this guy is tough as hell, a hustler, a banger, fights for every rebound, plays solid d and has blocked many shoots over the last couple of days. his perimeter defense and help defense have shown some solid flashes and his one on one defense is really solid. he is what i call an old school center, he realy plays old school basketball. i like his quickness and overall athleticizm and the way he ruuns the floor, like a deer. if he can improve his lift a little bit, the sky would literally become the limit for him. but i still expect him to become one of the best big man in the nba.

Kanters man with the Alley-oop, first boneheaded play of his on the defensive end.
I think Jonas has been wearing #17 in the past.
