Coach John Calipari is trying to play down Kanter's ability, insisting he's not another DeMarcus Cousins. Well, if that's the standard, most of the big men of the past decade have been worthless. Kevin Love, Michael Beasley, Greg Oden – how many more pass the test? There's every reason to believe Kanter would have an impact on the order of Ohio State's Jared Sullinger, who went for 26 in his first major test at Florida. So if he's gone for good, it's a blow.
