Still a scrub. Kanter is one of the MAIN reasons that OKC isn't going anywhere this year. He's a ing turnstile on D.

Surprised that he's only 25. Well who knows. Too many players get into the NBA too young and aren't able to develop their game.
He's a beast in Europe, but he just can't play in the NBA.
Sure not seeing the bad hands or shooting issues in those videos. I'd take him over Bonner even if he only had one leg.
very convenient to avoid the missesI went back to check the boxscore, he was -22 while "cancer" was +26 in 18 minutes. Game was lost by 30.He seems to be improving though.
Another idiot using raw +/- to prove his argument. Just evaluate his skill-sets & performance against legit NBA players, if you are keeping score in pre-season then you need to reevaluate your life. OKC should smoke a 2nd tier Euro team by 50 & Bonner would be also +50 if he was playing alongside Westbrook/Durant/Ibaka. Mason Plumlee is starting for the Blazers & dude put up a goose egg against the Kings.....the guy was All-Rookie 1st team but I would have to say Vesely has surpassed him. Vesely is the same tier of player as Aron Baynes, he's just not 275lbs.

Biggest problem with Jan when he came in the league was basketball iq. He just didn't seem to know what the he was doing when he was out there, he was also very thin so would have trouble banging with the big boys.
He seems to of put on some weight though and if his iq has improved that would be a giant plus. He looked pretty smooth on that fade away in the first video. I think the kid is only what maybe 22 or 23? With his improved iq and putting on some size I wouldn't have a problem with the Spurs taking a flyer on him. Hes a freak athlete with great upside who can probably be had fairly cheap at this point. As Storm said he could be a nice energy guy/post defender coming off the bench.
Against NBA rotation players who care, he can't get his shot off. Forget his +/-, just look at his pitiful NBA stats. He was so pathetic and scared, he would literally play hot potato with the ball to get rid of it so he wouldn't have to shoot FTs.
Idiot, he's playing against NBA STARTERS in the preseason let alone rotation players. He also played well in FIBA. Jeff Ayres couldn't even produce in summer league but yet was on the roster & now you have Mason Plumlee starting at center for the Blazers.
You are bringing up stats from 2 years ago when he was playing for teams in turmoil.
-Was Aron Baynes in the league before he was 25? No; Tiago? No; Gary Neal? No
-Danny got cut by two teams & became a key starter on a championship contender in a matter of 2 years.
-Patty was playing in China before he got picked up
He got was drafted way too high for a guy that was just a freak athlete but was supposed to play SMALL FORWARD. The Wizards passed on Kawhi/Klay/Butler even though they were drafting for a wing player......so that will tell you all you need to know about their talent evaluation. They never developed him & assumed he knew how to play from day 1, when he didn't they labeled as a bust & shipped him out.

Storm do you know if he just inked a new contract in Europe? Wondering how much a buyout would cost. If minimal I think hes worth a gamble.
He's probably not worth considering until next summer since he would need training camp. Assuming Bonner will definitely be gone next season Vesely could be a decent upgrade.
