what Happened to Kanter?

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

Just calling out again that we knew that we had massive holes at backup point guard and our frontcourt since the beginning of the season, and it was further highlighted when Nurk and CJ went down... but Neil did nothing. Now Simons and Kanter aren't doing jack shit and we're paying for it.
 
Kanter is slightly slower than a few years ago.

Mostly its the matchup, 2 years ago he was fine against Steven Adams and a less athletic much less dominant Jokic. But he got destroyed against Golden State, Meyers was better.

In this series he doesn't have a plodding big to matchup with, he needs to be benched.
We should have signed Meyers to a 10 day to play D on Jokic.
 
Post like these just make me wish soooo badly the poster would say this to his face. The anger and opinion being so aggressive, just would love to see you wilt in front of Kanter in person.
Fuck yes I would tell him in his face. I would ask him where his pride is. I would ask him how is it possible that he is worst shot blocker in history and worst defender ever. Posters like you are the reason stotts is still blazer coach

Haha. No you wouldn't. You are the definition of the keyboard tough guy. You would ask Enes Kanter about his pride? GTFOH.

Bro...... you don’t even think before you type do you?
 
It’s so weird the soon to be NBA MVP who spits out triple doubles on a nightly basis is making Kanter look bad
EVERYONE makes Kanter look bad... on DEFENSE. But he usually makes up for it with rebounding and efficient scoring. After the Blazers won game 1 everyone was saying Denver was toast because Jokic can't defend the pick and roll. That was a strength of Kanter's - including against Denver in the regular season. What changed?
 
Kanters strength is scoring, yet they rarely go to him.

His strength is his rebounding. He is great at offensive rebounds and putbacks. They don't need to run many plays for him IMO.
Some yes, but not many.
 
Kanter strength is rebounding but I’ve thought for the past couple of weeks or so he’s been getting worked on the boards. Maybe he’s playing through an injury or something but he’s been a step late for awhile now.
 
Think it’s just not a great matchup against a very tough 2nd string younger more athletic rebounders. He might be useful in other matchups where they are not as physical and play at a slower pace
 
Situational player.

if denver plays mcgee, kanter can play.
He is a matchup player.
Works better in the regular season when teams arent able to prepare for matchups as often or as detailed as a series.
