I agree 100%, he also killed us in the 4th with all those fouls

Nice to see Knox have a better game- hopefully if he keeps this up, in a few weeks we can move Burke back to the bench and have Frank at PG and Knox at SF

Can't believe how quick Kanter is sometimes- has he gotten quicker or was he always like this?

I love how fiz is handling knox. He isnt putting too much pressure on him but also trusting him

Last offseason Kanter got into much better shape. Remember him posting those workout videos around the time of the Melo trade, showing how much weight he lost.

Made him a more mobile big last season. Fizdale told Kanter (and everyone else) to come in great shape, looks like he took it up another notch. Also showing more of a passing game, and better perimeter D.

Seems silly to pass on paying a player because he isnt the one to drain a 3 at the buzzer. He's the guy who keeps it close enough to be in the game in the closing seconds.

Hear 10 million for Kanter, which was the going rate for a decent big around 4-5 years ago. I want to attract a big time FA, not to the point of passing on a culture changing player like Kanter. Would rather see what KP/Kanter II looks like. Expecting KP to be coming back with more game as well. Might be the best frontcourt in the league down the road. Thats something to build on.

He's grown on me as a player, but he's much quicker than he was earlier in his career....He's gotten into great shape, which helps his D a bit, though he is still a poor shot blocker for a guy his size. He's probably one of the better post scorers in the game, and although I know that is not popular these days, I see it as important, especially if he can kick the ball out at times.

Hoping that we can somehow keep him...not sure how it would work, "capwise," but he is good guy to have in your mix of players.

EnySpree: Can we agree to agree not to mention Phil Jackson and triangle for the rest of our lives?

Ouch.

Nixluva is posting triangle screen grabs, even when nobody asks - Fishmike. LOL So are we going to reference that thread like the bible now? "The thread of Wroten Page 14 post 9" - EnySpree
