Jonathan needs to do some more research. Kanter is ranked 13th in the league and 1st on Knicks in RPG. Pretty good for a guy coming off the bench. A more telling stat as to Kanters overall contribution on the floor would be his PIE. Which is currently a team high at 15.9. Yet he chioses a negative spin by comparing the teams rebounding percentages on vs off the floor?

You also have to look at earlier seasons, look at various rosters and wait for a larger sample siz. We have weaker rebounding second unit overall, at least, by my eyes. That said, Kanter is now playing the role he's best suited for. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

And are you saying the Knicks signed Kanter for somethnig other than his reounding and post scoring? 3pt shooting? Did you expect more from him? My point, which is not to bring up even more obscure advanced stats, was that you can come up with a negative advanced stat on just about anyone in the NBA. If you want to focus on the negatives. Like most unrealistic fans and sports bloggers like to do. Kanter is a very good low post player, rebounder and energy guy. He is not a great defender. To bring up a 1.6% eam shooting deficiencywhen he is on the floor and ignoring being 13th in rebounding seems a bit of a miss.
