    Compare capela to canter with Efficiency, rebounding and defense.

    blazers paid kanter $653k this year.

    Game 5 and 6
    Difference between GS and Rockets is Looney. Why didn’t morey acquire kanter since mda thinks faried is not playable?

    Solid observation. I mean, not revolutionary, everyone recognizes how great Looney was and how bad Clint was. But lots of talk about CP3, Harden, Steph, KD.

    Looney grabbed 5 OReb in game 5 and 4 in Game 6. Both games 22 minutes and under. INSANE!

    I think Kanter is a better rebounder than Capela, and better scorer. But he isn't good defensively, as we all know.

    We'll get to see Kanter against GSW coming up. Will the fact that he can actually score from the FT line in, and provide enough size to battle Looney be enough to counter-act the fact that he isn't good defensively?? I doubt it, in terms of who will win the series.

    I posted at the deadline we needed to add Kanter or Jordan and got mocked. Instead we chose to go with Shump. Guarantee you that New York would have dealt either one to us for the first round pick we gave for Shump. Ennis was a better shooting Shump, so what a horrible effort by Morey to make us playoff ready.

    75% of clutchfans care more about inflated regular season stats than solid evidence of winning. Kanter has won the blazers games in the playoffs, capela has lost us countless against GS while being useless against Utah.

    Kanter sucks on defense but is a good scorer and rebounder.,capela is trash all around. I’d rather pay that 17m to kanter than have capelas broken no heart having ass.

    The rockets organizations loser mentality of settling for good reg season stats (lobs froM harden and cp3) has rubbed off on the fans I see.

    They have Kanter. They can't possibly lose.

    Look at Capela stats in last series tells you he young and not ready. Deandre Jordan is better imo.
