So the guy who wanted to come back to Portland to finish his career just said “KD hit me quick and said definitely come here”. Dame not a good recruiter lol
And to follow up on what CC said, not only yes, but he prefers it that way. Same with the majority of the players.
...or maybe Dame scouted how washed up and how much softer he is now and decided recruiting would be pointless because we don't need a 14/15th man
Hmmmm So far in two games he's averaging 11 ppg, 6 rebounds, 3.5 assists (this will come down) and he's shooting 45% from the field and 100% from three on 2 attempts. Meanwhile, Kanter is averaging 12 ppg, 11.6 rebounds per game, and shooting 60% from the field. I'd rather have Kanter.
What exactly do you think LMA does well at this point in his career that Kanter doesn't do? He's a piss poor defender, so it's a wash in that department. He doesn't shoot a lot of threes, so all you're getting is long range twos. I'd rather have Kanter shooting 60% from up close. Kanter rebounds better. Their passing is a wash.
Lamarcus is a better all around player. Period. Watch the Nets play and tell me Lamarcus isn’t a better defender. It’s in nbatv right now
