    This man is a warrior. What he has done for this team is something that should be remembered for a long time.

    Same here. This team really rejuvenated him after coming from the worst team in the league and made him really hungry to play. And then with Nurk going down he had to really step it up and has. Man I would hope so much for some sort of discount to try and resign him, but will see.

    I am in awe at how much respect and admiration I have developed for Kanter since we picked him up. Even beyond basketball but on the court when someone says "I gave all I had" or "I left it all on the court" he is one of the few I believe. Major props and I am already bummed we won't be able to keep him.

    We WILL be able to keep him. He wants to be here. Do you think after all this effort during this magical post-season that Kanter would want to be ANY where else but Portland? Even if the money looks good elsewhere...the guy loves it here. He’s staying. Bank on it.

    The more he talks, the more I'm wondering if we will be able to keep him. He is giving his heart and soul to this team.

    I can see some other teams making him some nice offers.

    I think other offers will definitely be compelling but Kanter just doesn’t strike me as a guy that will leave strictly for money. He’ll follow his emotions and his emotions are now buried within our team and fan base.

    The "experts" keep saying there is going to be a very limited market for centers who aren't 3-point shooters. I guess we will see.

    Even if we get past the Nuggets, we are going to beat to hell if we face Golden State.

    I still can't get over that flagrant shot to Kanter's shoulder Jokic laid into him. WTF

    Jokic is a dirty ass fuck.

    Remember my green font message below people!!!

    Now. Im wondering if we are entering a situation like denver had?

    Two big starting centers.
    Nurk is still an unknown if he will ever come back 100% the same.

    Then there is a young Kanter. Shoulder will heal fine with rest.

    Trade Nurk for more pieces and salary and sign Kanter for the future?

    Man. Poor Nurk if that happened yet again to him.
