Kanter's Game Last Night

Even with Kanter playing exceptionally well last night, I still saw people on twitter bitching about him, calling him ***** Cancer, or saying they wish he'd get cancer. Everytime someone would score, Harpring was quick to point out how Kanter is not the shot blocker Favors is. I see people quoting the retarded stat of how we've only won one game with Kanter in starting lineup (failing to recognize that has meant there was no Favors, and thus Kanter's minutes were distributed to less experienced players).

Wake up people! Kanter had a great game last night, and has been having a decent season.

Last night's stats:
25 pts, 60 fg%, 10 reb, 4 ast, 3 blk, 1stl, 2 to

His per 36 for the season is:
17 pts, 50 fg%, 9 reb, 1.2 ast, .5 stl, .9 blk, 2.5 tov


Rudy Gobert is 21,. Kanter is 21. Rudy is not putting up numbers even remotely close to these.

Derrick's per 36 for the season is:

15.2 pts on 50 fg%, 10.7 reb, 1.3 ast, 1.1 stl, 1.6 blk, 2.2 tov


Derrick is 22.

How is Kanter deserving of all the hate he gets? Why are so many people suggesting we trade Kanter?

In the games Kanter starts, his helper is Gobert off the bench. Think about that. Last night Gobert played 12 minutes and blocked 1 shot, and scored 1 point. That is all he did. Should you be mad at Rudy? No. Rudy is a rookie... Who is the sme age as Kanter.

Point is, Kanter is producing, and basketball is a team game. It just so happens that Kanter has started games when important members of the team have been injured.

Change your name to Sexual Kanters. Disgraceful that you even try to imply favors is lesser of a player based on per 36.
 
write4u has made similar threats in the past. He's one of the most unstable posters in the history of Jazzfanz.

I know about the whole OneBrow saga, but did he actually have threats like "wipe him out"??

Borderline sociopathic.

Write4u was pming me death threats. Don't know much about this guy, but anyone who says something like this brings cause for concern.
 
The insuniation that Turks resident here are Kanter-jockriders are ridiculous (except diamond77 and sepanol).
I have been a jazzfanz (and now defunct jazzhoops) member since 2004, AFAICR (abbreviation?)
now get lost.

Who are you talking to?
 
Why is there a correlation between being a Corbin nuthugger and hating Kanter?

It is very odd why these people hate Kanter and are rooting for him to fail. It doesn't make sense to me.

There are a few reasons for separate people. For some he is not American. For others he is a number 3 pick that doesn't come often to the Jazz so he should be zero and done and immediately give the world to the franchise. Many criticizers think that he is extraordinarily raw for an NBA player so he is a gonner, no need to try to build him into anything except a valuable trade asset so you can get some decent talent for him.

My personal thoughts about him; As soon as he is unleashed from Corbin's chains, he will be a legit 30-15 guy at his prime. No charge for dreaming after all.
 
Just wanted to point out I have more of an invested interest in Kanter than anyone on this board.

He is on my fantasy basketball team and I'm probably going to use a keeper slot on him. I want him to get 48 mpg.

That being said, holy crap if you can't recognize his faults and get mad if people talk about them.
 
you could easily make an offensive compilation video where kanter scores much smoother and easier than how he gives up points
he is already defensively better than Al Jefferson even though not good enough yet. At least not a black hole

Kanter's career high in assist is 4, before that it was 3 (and he only got that two times). Kanter is currently a black hole until he starts averaging at least 2 assist per game (given 30 mpg). Right now he is at .9 for 26 mpg. That is the definition of black hole.

LOL ... you guys must think I have secret powers that I can go out and find people and send drones to wipe them out ... oh, that's right I'm a contract worker for the NSA, and before that I was a CIA agent, who operated out of Afghanistan. Yes, I was there when we killed Pat Tillman, and yes we did assassinate him.
 
Corbin has sucked since day one. I gave him a chance in the beginning, but even if you say we don't know anything about basketball or as much as you, at least most of us have basic common sense which Corbin continues to show a lack thereof. And you are a pretentious fool, my son.

Don't try and rationalize your statement. You are sick and should seek help.

You're probably the only ****er on this site dumb enough to not be able to find out who I am. That's why I slept like a baby last night for my usual 5 hour power nap.

So Derrick is one too? He is averaging 1.1 AST in 30+ MIN. Seriously is that your argument bro?

BTW he gotta work on that aspect of his game(so your right) but the last couple of weeks he is doing a beter job in that area. And I think we have seen some improvement. He is not overreacting to double teams that much and is finding the right player on the perimeter. Enes and Alec are doing hand-offs out of the post more often. And that two men game he is doing with either Gordon or Trey or Alec on the wing is sweet to watch. So I would say he is coming along nicely. Might be a little slower than most of us thought(me included) but he is getting there.

Am I talking about Favors? Yes, Favors is also a bad passer. He has a lower usage rate in the game compared to Kanter though. He also can be a black hole, but not on Kanter's level.

Not sure why every criticism of his game has to be deflected to someone else.
 
Kanter's best games look like Al Jefferson's mediocre-good games. 25 points on 25 shots, 3 blocks against, no free throws...

Not sure if its right to compare a 21 year old player with a 28/29 year old player. I would agree with you when Kanter would be 25 or older and i would say that is an issue or a problem and a major setback but Kanter has plenty of time.
