    I'm surprised this hasn't been created yet. No talk about him being a drama queen in this thread, it is who he is.

    Just appreciate him for the balls out half season he gave us, and for getting us to the WCF on a busted shoulder. Wish him nothing but the best in Boston, except when he plays us.

    Cya Kanter!!

    I hope we see you back in the Scarlet and Black in 2020-21 once we have room to re-sign you. Also, I hope you get US citizenship so you have the freedom to travel and perhaps even bring your family here.

    Kanter was a drama queen.

    It's sad, really. We had a guy whose name rhymes with penis, and we let him slip through our fingers.

    I miss this dude somehow. I know he is drama queen and was unplayable in the Golden State series but he played with heart and gave everything for the Team against Denver and OKC, and his Defense wasn't as bad as we all excpected in the first two series. I'll take him all day over Whiteside.

    Kanter scores at will.

    Weightless Zach Collins is blown over by a breeze, so his only calling card, defensive footwork, goes for naught, as he sits on the bench in foul trouble.

    I'll take Kanter over Collins any day.
