I realize it's Charlotte. I just wish Kanter got more opportunities to play 30 mins+. The encouraging sign was that this isn't the first time he put up 1 rebound and 1 point every minute or two of playing time. It was nice to see that he could do that throughout an entire game though.

The thing we all want to see is what he can produce from one game to another, or during a road game against a quality team. By no means do I think he'll put up the same numbers every game, but I'd like to see whether he can keep the constant energy from one game to another for 30 mins+ and rebound 10+ and put up 14+. It's frustrating that we probably still won't have a chance to find out this season.
 
Even though it was just the bobcats... We held them To a season low in the first quarter and the first half and Enes on his own nearly out rebounded their whole team!!!
 
#1 After tonight's performance, how can Corbin justify not playing Kanter more?
#2 How much longer does Marvin have? Dude sucks. Carroll? He's the new Wes Matthews. Play him 20+ mins
#3 How much better would our franchise be right now had we started off the year with our bench starting and our starters benched? Seriously, is there another coach in this league who would keep starting Big Al, Millsap, Marvin, Foye, and Tins/Earl ahead of our bench? They're clearly better in every aspect.
#4 Kanter/Favors are easily a top 5 frontcourt in the league right now. Give them another year (or had they had this year together) they'll be #1.
#4 Tonight demonstrated why so many of us wanted to see a trade or two. Our guys are rdy. We just need a ****ing pg. Put Dwill on this team and you have a team that can take down anyone in a 7 game series, especially Miami. This team is so much more talented than the 07 team which made it to the WCF it isn't even funny.

1: More yes, starting, not yet
2: just because he isn't putting up loads of points doesn't mean that he is a bad player, I believe that he runs the offence well and defends. It's the offence having him the third or so option that keeps him from scoring.
3: Starting off this year the two towers weren't as good as they are now. It needs to happen now, but probably won't
4: If Kanter can polish his game and Favors can stop fouling out of frustration and learn some more footwork, you might be right.
5: (5? or is it 4#2?) having DWill means no Favors, No Kanter, No Marvin. You can't have your cake and eat it to, and you can't keep both sides of a trade. How we do going forward all depends on Mo Williams and how well he becomes a passing point guard. If he's a ball hog, bad news. If he throws the ball to Al exclusively, bad news. If he distributes it evenly, we just might have something because we aint getting squat from EarSley.

as far as your excuse for marvin in #2, demarre carroll is usually the 3rd or 4th option when he is in the game and demarre still manages to get his points.... so what is marvins excuse now? (that he plays with al is a pretty good one as all issues seem to lead back to jeffy)

For the first time in years, we were finally enjoyable to watch. For the first time in years, we finally played good hard defense. For the first time in years, we finally ran an offense and actually shared the ball around. For the first time in years, we pounded another team inside. For the first time in years, since Dwill, Memo, and Booz, we actually looked pretty damn good.

....if your referring to the Bobcats game, PLEASE! We beat possibly the worst team in the league on our home court.....and if having 23 assists and 22 turnovers is a "watchable" game to you then put a bag over your head the next time they take the court! Yes, Kanter had a very nice game......but we are still so far from Jazz basketball that its not even funny.

So what? You still have to go out and perform. The last few seasons have proven that if you don't play wih effort even the worst nba teams can make you look foolish (Sacramento New Orleans) and avg teams can blow you out by 40+.

So even though we all agree that Charlotte sucks, you still have to go out and beat them. We killed them.
