Does Kanter show Jazz made mistake in these playoffs ......

To the original question, does Kanter show Jazz made mistake in these playoffs? No.

As others have posted, we tried to cater to him and he was playing starters minutes. He chose not to play on both ends and has openly admitted to sandbagging games cause he didn't want to be here. That is a cancer to a team, even if you are one of the best.

Jazz made the only move they could've made. Therefore, still no.

The Jazz made a huge mistake, that is undeniable. We should have maximized his value much better.

So it's a mistake to trade a disgruntled player who only gives effort every now and then and doesn't play on both ends of the floor? He was a pillar piece that we were building the team around (core), and he didn't like it. I agree we likely could've gotten a better deal but keeping him in Utah was never an option. Under the circumstances there is no way any unbaised person can call what the Jazz did a mistake.

Yeah, you can. The whole situation was handled poorly.

I bet you 100% if the Jazz could go back, they would have handled the entire situation differently.

I was the person who disliked Kanter from Day 1. It's not like I like him or anything.

I agree we probably could've gotten more for him but if you take away the compensation and just look at the overall cancer he was becoming, the hand was already dealt.

I don't think he was a cancer. I don't think anyone was close with him, but I don't think anyone had a problem with him.

I said he is averaging 21 minutes per game in the playoffs. After reading some of your post I found out that he is still averaging 21 minutes per game in the playoffs.

Cute. You equated Kanter's role, amd contribution, to Joe Ingles', which is just false.

Where do I say that kanters role and contribution is similar to ingles? The exact sentence was "that's the same amount of minutes as joe ingles played per game last season."
I don't see the words "role" or "contribution" anywhere.

What do you consider major minutes?
Kanter played 21 minutes per game so far in the playoffs.

That's the same amount of minutes as joe ingles played per game last season.

Kanter has 5 minutes at halftime. That "21 minutes per game" stat is in danger of freefalling this series.

Let's not forget he is playing alongside with KD and RS, two of the top 10 players in the league. It's very likely OKC would be in the conference finals without Kanter.

I honestly think Durant and Westbrook are 2 of the top FOUR best players in the NBA (Curry and Lebron being the other two). With that type of ridiculous firepower, OKC would make the WCF even if I were on the team playing 21 minutes a game.

Love watching Draymond own Kanter. Yup.

Watch Kanter fans try to spin this as Kanter leading OKC to victory, lol
