I thought getting rid of Perkins would make them more likable. Guess not.

Apparently Kanter does not care for the Utah Jazz organization.

He's an immature, selfish idiot, enjoy maxing him.

I'm not a fan of trashing your former employee. I wouldn't want to max Kanter anyway.

Based on how "happy" he is in OKC it might not take max to get him. I'd love to have him for the next 4-5 years at 12M per year considering the increase in cap. Hell, even 14 would be nice.

And again....Noel will be maxed.

He's not taking a "discount" all these quotes should tell you what kind of mindset he has. He's not a winning player, he's a me first guy. Very talents on O but not someone I'm giving 40-60 mil to.

Not really sure that these quotes prove he is a "me first" guy. I don't like trashing your old location though. Not sure how he is supposed to answer the questions but when you read the transcript and listen its not as bad as you would think.

If he stays this "happy" then I'd love for him to stay. I don't think he is faking what he is showing on the court (nothing to do with his production).

Havent seen it but Reading most people that have are heavily criticizing him.

Says a lot when the team you leave is very happy you are gone.

Makes sense he wasn't happy. He had to play ahead of superior players. I'm sure he felt embarrassed to be shown up consistently every night and have the fans clamoring for your benching can't make you too happy.

It's pretty bad. If a star player said this stuff, the media would have blown up about it.

Noooooooo. The Jazz need you in the playoffs.

Delon Wright makes sense for the Thunder actually.

The pick goes to the Cavs this year i believe.

This is true. But if the Thinder make the playoffs then the Jazz get their pick in 2017. If not, then the Jazz have to wait until 2018.

I don't care about the Utah pick. That player won't be as good as Kanter but losing a pick for Waiters hurts.

 

[Heyward]

I just read the blog on ESPN and some quotes, not THAT crazy.

Some people are taking it overboard.

Unless of course he leaves and/or the Thubder overpay for him.

 

[Heyward]

Hopefully Utah can hang on, need that lotto pick.

I can only take him at his word for now. Seems like he loves playing in OKC. I think that may bode well for resigning and for how many dollars.

 

[holden]

 

[chop2chip]

Thanks for the motivation, bitch.

Good. You guys can keep him.
