I like Kanter and his attitude, but if the guy is virtually unplayable against a lot of these playoff teams in the East (ex. Toronto, Miami), then I'm not against moving on. I expect him to opt-out and unless he's willing to return for cheap, he'll be gone.
I'm not against a Baynes reunion for the MLE. He's the kind of guy we're missing. Someone who can actually play against almost all these bigs and give us good effort on both ends. Theis and Kanter have obvious flaws against certain bigs and it gets exposed. Kanter barely even played the last few series as a result. And while I love Theis, he can't be the starting center on this team if we're truly thinking Finals.
Think of Baynes in some of our recent playoff runs. Not to say Bam would be contained entirely, but I imagine Baynes would have done a better job on him than Theis, especially on the defensive end.
Oh, and cutting Ojeyele is a must. Should have happened the first minute after we were eliminated.
No, it shouldn't have. We're over the cap, so having his hold on the books carries no penalty for us right now. But by keeping him around, we have the option of picking up his option in order to use his salary in a trade (and given that we don't have much in terms of tradable salary, that could be very important)
I wouldn't expect any changes with his status until a couple of days before his contract deadline
