Jazz have a game in less than an hour (UTA @ OKC)

I have been saying this for months. His defense awareness is terrible. And it's why I believe he and Favors balance each other out so well. One for offense, one for defense.

Kanter's got potential to be way much better defender. If he can do, Favors will not make easy fouls and stay on the floor more min. Somebody needs to teach him how to show up on PnR and make help defense. His defensive fundemental is just bad.

Why should he? He is smaller and lighter and Adams is really good defender. I see actually opposite happening, Adams already blocked two Kanter shots and has more rebounds in 6 minutes less playing time.

Not true. Both of them have the same standing reach and nearly the same verticals.

This guy looks like a defensive-minded-version of Kanter to me..

But back 2 topic Enes isn't focussing on defensive rebounds anymore. Since his sophomore-year he is preferring to be a fast-break-option. In his rookieseason he was after every defensive rebound and now he changes his focus and relying on Favors which makes me sick because Enes is not the one who should finish fast breaks.

Nice defense by favors.

My point was that Adams is taller and heavier. Which is true ( Kanter dropped weight to 248lbs since pre draft combine) . How Adams has 3 inches on wingspan, inch on height and same standing reach as Kanter is mystery to me. Only explanation would be that he has much wider shoulders.

Then you should get shocked by this..

Adams seems Zaza esque to me. Good defender, good rebounder, strong body and can score when he's suitable under the rim or catch miss match.

Good to see Burks hit that shot.

please stop posting links in threads.

I've been hacked. I in no way said this.

Burks finally going to the rim and getting some results.

 

[Darkwing Duck]

Burks shooting a technical free throw is hilarious.

These okc commentators sound like they don't know i can actually see what's happening. Or maybe i've just got a radio feed...
