Interesting dilemma for OKC

Why being 7' and putting up 18.7 and 11 doesn't have your team salivating over keeping you.

not an elite defender, but head and shoulders better than what we got at 5

Agreed. But not if we would have to pay him around $16 million a year.

He's considered just about worst defensive center in the league. At least Zeller and KO try hard.

try hard? they still suck

Kanter's not head-and-shoulders over Zeller defensively.  He's not even ankle-high over Zeller defensively.  Quite the opposite.  Olynyk's a PF, and anyone who compares him with centers is ill-advised.
