He has, dude. They already did physicals and Kanter is fine.
Kanter scares the hell out of me, but there's obviously something to like there on paper.
Greg Miller: “Injuries killed us last year, we need to be more durable” – meaning no Kanter?

That's a good point. And that's what I've been trying to get at.
It's like making investment decisions in some respects, it depends how risk adverse you are in some of these cases whether you put your money in bond, stock, property, etc.
High risk/High reward. Low risk/low reward. (except if you have #1 or #2 pick this year)

Definitely think AK Is gone. I don't have the exact quote, but in past interviews Greg has talked about his frustration over some AK's injuries he thought were less severe and it's taken AK a lot of time to come back. Okur is completely different. That was a horrific injury. I think Okur might be done, but not because the Jazz don't want him back. I just don't see Memo at his age recovering and getting back in basketball shape.

Quick thoughts :
AK is not gone, the Fanz store got a new shipment of his Jerseys.
Okurs game was never built around ellite athleticism so maybe he can come back. KOC has said that they are planning as if he won't return, and hoping for the best.
Devin Harris was injured a lot last year. He has played in less than 70 games 5 out of his 7 seasons. History tells us he'll play in less than 69 games next year.

My son is a teenager and his knees hurt sometimes. He must have bad knees, like Kanter. Or he's a teenager who sometimes have hurty knees...
On Greg Miller's quote... I haven't quite figured him out. I don't know to take his comments very litterally, or more like "coach speak" (of which KOC is master.) So it is possible he is saying (or tryting to say) "ya we have to get more athletic, and we have to work hard, and have less injuries." Or really does he mean - man i'm done with AK. Or does he mean "i need to lower AK's $value a bit so i can sign him back cheaper." And also what really is the prescription or business plan for "get more durable?" (Other than dumping AK?) Only thick draft picks? We're tradin' for Big Baby Davis?
