    Enes won't be in Turkish roster for this summer.Our national team will play without him.There is no clear reason,there is no explanation from Enes.No word to say... Enes Kanter is still doing stupid mistakes

    Besides the obvious work he's done on his body he just looks more aggressive and he looks like he's having a good time out there. I'm still hoping that Utah trades Jefferson and/or Millsap so that Kanter and Favors can get more time. I think both of those kids have great futures in front of them.

    All that hard work, dedication, and sacrifice that Kanter went through this summer will hopefully show during this NBA season. Enes is really hyped about the new season and i'm sure he wants to show us what he is really capable of doing...

    In case you guys would like to read how he lost more than 50 pounds in just 2 months over the summer

    Maybe I don't like his attitudes like he did in the last summer or tweeter posts but I admire his work discipline. He has been improving his game and body since he went to USA in 2009 although he didn't play basketball more than 1.5 years. He made very bad mistakes and lost sympathy in Turkey but he promises a lot.

    That's a relative thing. I am not sure he made wrong decisions, and i'm not sure if the lost sympathy means anything. We, in general, are too emotional, and our reactions as a nation are not worth serious consideration. He's on the good track in my opinion (not giving a damn about what ordinary people think in Turkey).

    Actually, His NT choice didn't affect me. He didn't attend NT without any excuse, explanation and answering calls ! IMO, this is a problem. Like I said before, he improved his game during summer and he may did good things for his career . But he just could answer calls and say '' No, I am not going to get there''. I am not nationalist, I don't even believe in nations that started to occure in the late of 18th century... I hope he will have a chance to play more minutes in this season.

    That's simple courtesy, and I agree on that.

    He is still too young, we don't know what exactly passed between the NT people and him. I'm sure the guy is pissed off at some people and at what happened back in the country a couple of years ago. Justified or not, people from Turkey sabotaged his chances to play in NCAA.

    I consider myself very passionate about our NTs, and really would like to see our best players in the squad, but I think Enes has a bit more right than others to decline the offer.

    Kanter is just on wrong team. Very bad luck he got in team with such deep big man rotation. Evrey time he gets PT and good role he plays good

    I said coach why we practice so much. He said God will bless us after all this hard work. How can I argue with that !

    Utah Jazz must trade him or Jefferson.Same thing goes for Derrick Favors too.He is talented but Utah has Millsap at his position.
    Impossible is nothing.

    Good job by Kanter in the last two matches. He is physichally enough for NBA level. He does well in post-up but has not great basketball IQ and he is in wrong team that could prevent his developing. I said here before that he would make better numbers in NBA like 15-10 and he is going on that way. After Jefferson retired or went to other team, I expect him as a starter of Utah Jazz roster.

    Out indefinitely and could be out for the season with a dislocated shoulder. This is very disappointing for him and the Jazz.
