Commentary: Will Enes Kanter play better defense? His means and his motivation have never been higher

Enes Kanter has been bad defensively.

Obviously bad.

Historically bad.

Atrociously bad.

I get it. I've seen the evidence. I've digested the stats. And after the Thunder signed him to a four-year, $70 million deal earlier this week, I've heard the wailing and teeth gnashing from some Oklahoma City faithful who grew weary of the conga line to the hoop late last season.
