    Dude, are you REALLY surprised?

    We have 50 pages of PapaG melting down. We get to 20 pages on stupid topics all the time. Don't be a noob.

    Well sure we could deal Leonard Plumlee or Davis at some point but that does not prevent us from getting a massive untradeable contract in Kanter. The dude is not worth Max money in this offseason or any other.

    One of the most tight-fisted teams in the NBA is going to spend $70 mil to keep Kanter?

    You guys do know that you can set the number of posts per page, right? This thread is only 9 pages for me. I guess that makes it not stupid.

    Man it seems like you love to be wrong. Oh well I will just write another thread in a couple years when Kanter still can't play defense and we are stuck with this ridiculous contract. Maybe just maybe OKC will sign him and you can spare reading about how I was right. maybe

    I love when you claim things. I just do opposite and I'm right.

    The Thunder match because:

    1) Due to the Thunders cap space issue, he is their only possible FA signing.
    2) The Thunder can jettison end of the bench players to reduce the luxury tax hit
    3) By signing him, Presti maximizes tradable assets.
    4) If the Thunder don’t match, all they would have is the vet minimum to replace Kanter.

    The list of FA centers available next summer includes: Whiteside, Hibbert, D Howard, Drummond, Noah, Horford, and Jefferson. Probably missed a few.

    Just saying.

    Really let's see called LA leaving, called Batum not living up to his deal, called Butler turning into a beast, you can maybe throw the Conley deal back at me but considering the Griz pounded us like a whore at her first frat party and Lillard still plays no defense good luck.

    Like I said, just do opposite of you and this organization will contend in no time

    I'm not the one bitching about number of pages.

    And I cant change it now, Sly. It would make every thread prior not comparable. Where's the fun in that? It's like comparing MLB stats from 90 years ago to today. I'd have to put an asterisk on every post where someone mentions thread-length.

    You missed the other 5-7 reasons already talked about on this board. But your reasons support the point. I think NO does this just to distract us for a few hours.

    Ennis the menace!

    Potential to be an elite scorer from the center position.

    Defense is horrrrrrrific. He's only 23 so I'm not too worried.

    He's named after my favorite Blazer of all time Ennis Whatley.

    Jesus meese, just when Lamarcus and Batum left, I thought you'd achieve some balance but man..I'm afraid this is not a good sign
