99PROBL3MS Posted May 25, 2011 Report Share Posted May 25, 2011 What those clips show me is that this kid has unbelievable footwork and quickness for a 6'11 265lb 19 year old. He is quick off of the floor and will only get better. He could be a very good Center in the league once he fully matures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaceCase Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 Great max vert at 32.5 inches for a 6'11" 260 pounder but sub par no step at 26" but holy s*** he is as fast as Smoove but way more agile and great strength also. Given his offensive skillset Kanter has definitely worked his way into a top 3 if not 2 prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRUEINTELLECTPLAYA Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 His combination of physical tools are slightly worse than Al's. Whereas, Derrick Williams who says he is a SF combination of physical tools are the same as Al's. No way I can step out there and say Kanter is a upgrade over Horford at Center. If we can get him without giving up Josh or Al go ahead but he is not worth moving Josh or Al for. On the other hand, Al or Josh can go for Derrick Williams. Enes Kanter max vert reach of 11'10 Al Horford max vert reach of 11"10.5 Derrick Williams max vert reach of 11"10.5 Al Horford max vertreach of 11.10.5 Derrick Williams is also damn near as strong as Al Horford with 19 bench reps to Horfords 20, while Kanter lagged at 12, which is same as Teague Derrick Williams has the same wingspan as Kanter at 7"1.5, and just a inch and a half difference in standing reach. Conclusion, Derrick Williams is more of a beast than Kanter and he has 2 years of major conference basketball to prove it. Kanter is significantly less impressive than Al all things considered. Al's total physical tools are slightly better and he had 2 NCAA championships to go on his resume. Kanter has concerns about shaky knees and not a college game to look at.

MaceCase Posted May 26, 2011 Report Share Posted May 26, 2011 So being taller( 6'11" to 6'10"), bigger (260lbs to 245lbs), longer (7'1.5" wingspan, 9'1.5" reach to 7'.75" and 8'11"), faster (3.26 second 3/4 court sprint to 3.37 seconds), more agile (11.30 seconds to 12.15 seconds), and nearly a wash in strength ((14 reps to 20, not 12) means he has less physical tools than Al because his max vertical is 2 inches less? Oh brother, look who's only reading one chapter of the book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh brother, look who's only reading one chapter of the book. Please, Keith Benson has better physical tools than Al and so does Jon Leur, so did Hassan Whiteside, and on and on. Kanter is not on Al's level, and yes Al's combination of physical tools and accomplishments are superior to Kanter. We know more about Keith Benson and Whiteside than Kanter plus there tools are better with the exception of weight. Why are you not pushing for Keith Benson? I will answer that for you, because you are getting caught up in the hype, just like people did with Marvin Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrReality Posted May 31, 2011 Report Share Posted May 31, 2011 For the last couple of years Sund has said we don't want to get any younger. Would be surprised if that's changed. If we trade one of our top players we need to get a proven player(s) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddielives Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 So ESPN has an article now saying that a source has confirmed Rubio is coming to Minny. How does this change the picture and does it open up any way for the Hawks to get in on a trade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
