Read it please. Maybe you will understand me more why I wanted him on the Jazz so badly.

Don't care.




I'm mean, I'll read the article, because that's what kind of guy I am, but I honestly don't care why you wanted him so badly. It's not going to excuse your single minded and irrational negativity towards Kanter, and it's very unlikely to teach me anything about you or JV that I don't already know.

Nice article Calg, no doubt. Sounds like a nice kid, who has good skills and a desire to play.

If you remember... I wasn' t a big proponent of drafting Enes either. Nothing against him as a whole, but I didn't see him a "third overall pick" good.

What I do remember though, is reading several articles very similar to this one, about Kanter shortly after the Jazz drafted him. I mean... doesn't EVERY high pick get things like this written about them? That's why they are high picks .... because at least a few peole think they're amazing and the next big thing.

Jonas may turn out to be a very good player .... mabe even better than Enes. But that doesn't mean that Kanter is Baskeball-Satan either.

I think most the Jazz fans on this board were happy to debate the pick at the time of the draft, but the thing is .... it's been over a year now. Jonas is in Toronto and Enes is a member of YOUR favorite team. So why not show a little support? Kanter isn't Boozer... he's done nothing to justify hating on him. He's shown to be a hard working, humorous (I saw him live at the public scrimmage... he's a character), seemingly good young man with upside to his game. Hop on board with the Jazz fans Calg. Doesn't mean you think he was a better pick than Jonas... just means you've moved on and want to support the player on YOUR TEAM.

I'm sure he's a good kid and is a good player but i'll stick with kanter and i thinik Enes brings a breath of fresh air to the jazz. And the jazz will be a better team because we have him here.

Sorry Calg, I didn't read the link you provided. I took Enes in the Keeper League draft more as a joke than a strategy-driven move. But, it might turn out to be a very good pick. Calg, you live in Canada-- why aren't you a Toronto fan?

I live in Canada for 9 years. First NBA team I start cheering for was Jazz in 1996.... so do the math... I do watch lots of Raptors games as they are on National TV here all the time but until this year that team was not interesting for me at all. Now I like them quite a bit, Casey preaches defensive philosophy and they have few players who are pleasure to watch - Lowry and JV in particular.

At least CJ picked a first class team. Basketball Now its time to cheer Kanter on with us. Bro! Shocked
