Enes Kanter

ESPN’s His & Hers has a segment called “Doing too much” in which they look at different sports events and news and determine of someone was trying to be cool, but eventually ended up looking like a fool.

Enes Kanter is the definition of doing too much.

When Drake went after Meek Mill last year and he told him he had “Twitter fingers,” he was also predicting Kanter. Someone needs to take the big man’s phone away from him. Seriously.

He has spent way too much time on social media taking shots at Durant. Losing a superstar teammate is never easy, but NBA players should support each other’s freedom to choose where they want to play.

Also, it’s important to look back and remember how Kanter got to Oklahoma City.

He forced a trade because he wasn’t getting the playing time he wanted. With Rudy Gobert right behind him, Kanter wanted out. So he demanded a trade publicly and pushed the Utah Jazz management to deal him.

Kanter has ripped Durant for an apparent lack of loyalty when he’s not in a position to be the NBA’s white knight. He demanded a trade because he wanted to play more and continued to rip the organization even after the left, but he wants to judge others for loyalty.

Perhaps he should focus on becoming a decent defender first.
