So it seems we've added a free agent at PF that could fit really well defensively and brought back our own guys in Crowder and Jerebko. So there is one Restricted FA that I think we could potentially add for the right price. Enes Kanter is a player I do think the Thunder will not match at about 4 year 12 mil. Instead of using cap space we would sign and trade sending Isaiah Thomas and Jerebko over to OKC for Enes Kanter.

2015/16 Starters:
PG: Marcus Smart/Terry Rozier
SG: Avery Bradley
SF: Jae Crowder
PF: Amir Johnson
C: Enes Kanter

Thomas gives OKC a legitimate 6th man and very good depth on their bench.

how is his defense? i hear it is not very good, but i am not an expert of kanter. not sure he would add that much to the team...this is ignorance talking, not a fixed opinion.

His defense is bad. To make the tradeoff of his offense tenable you'd need a great defender at PF (someone like Favors or Ibaka). I don't think he's a guy who helps the Celtics much.

Don't think Kanter fits what Stevens is looking for out of a big. Mobile, rim runner. Quick enough laterally to defend the pick n roll. Offensively can hit a perimeter shot and make a pass. Owns his own space and can rebound. That is his profile. Hence Johnson and Zeller to a degree.

OKC is reportedly ready to offer Kanter a deal starting at $15.5 million, so...

Kanter is a great inside scorer but horrific on defense. Need a big beside him that can stretch the floor giving him space to operate and protect the rim. There are like 3 of those kind of Bigs in the entire NBA. Ibaka, AD and KAT. Ibaka happens to play for OKC so he is a perfect fit beside Kanter.

Jerebko can't be traded with another player for a few months.

OKC is in talks to resign him, I doubt this happens.
