Fuck Erdogan.

Fuck Kanter too.

FUCKU NOSEBLEED

ditto, nosebleed too kind.

Quoted from Anadolu press service:

“Agent Kam(s)ter is going too far. He was never authorized to insult his excellence just to hide whom he serves. Praise our heroic President, or else...”

Dray Green averaging more rebounds and more assists than points.  Though just slightly.  Close to 7 / 7 / 7.
He's had a poor shooting season.

NOPe left GreenDay open a good deal in order to double Scurry, and Dray made them pay popping in 4-7 3's and dishing out 14 assists (mostly on drive and dishes).

NO scored 140 and lost by 7.

Kanter is earning major respect for the way he’s using his platform as a prominent NBA player to bring to light the the tightening autocracy in Turkey. He can continue doing this as a prominent NBA player on a different team. If he gets traded he’s National news for a minute there, giving him a broader audience than he normally has to expose the situation. If he helps that team secure a playoff spot, a prospect that has dissipated with the Knicks this year, he has again scored a broad audience deeper into the year.

Kanter fans are losers

Kanter makes $18mil a year and can say whatever he wants  from these borders while he plays no defense and imagines himself an All-Star.

Those who defend Kanter as some kind of sympathetic figure need to have their panties changed.

Fuck you thrice bitches.

BTW, one of the worst things Erdogan has done is to derail the peace process with the Turkish Kurds and ratchet up the war against them.  This was done to assure that Erdogan would be able to have a 2/3rds majority in parliament and thereby be able to change the constitution and governing system (a la Putin) to continue as leader/dictator indefinitely. 

So Erdogan started jailing and killing and repressing Kurds again as part of a power grab to keep control and keep corruption flourishing to his family and friends.  He reignited the dirty war and then made the Kurdish parties illegal so they couldn't run, as they were part of a coalition blocking him from taking over the gov't in full.  If that isn't a crime against humanity . . .

It also informs his policy vis a vis the Syrian Kurds who he wouldn't need to fight with if he allowed the Kurds in his own country to engage in politics and speak their own language and live their lives without oppression and violence from the state.

No kidding.

Let it go, Kam. You're otherwise one of the, if not the, most interesting poster here. But let the Kanter stuff go. It's too much, and it's beneath you.

Knicks wearing their road blues.  Hardaway back.  Five guys spaced around the three pt line as Kornet sinks a 3 to get the road team on the board.

I think it was Bill Simmons that was pushing the Timmy/Frank for DSJ/Wessy deal, but I'm not sure I'd do that.

Here's a more complicated version that may work better for us and still work for Dallas:

Dallas gets: Timmy / Vonleh / TJ Warren
Dallas gives: Wessy Wes / Barea / DSJ / lotto protected 1st

Phoenix gets: Mudiay / Lee / Dal lotto protected 1st
Phoenix gives: TJ Warren / Troy Daniels / 2nd rounder

NY gets: DSJ / Wessy (expiring) / Barea (expiring) / Daniels (expiring) / Phx 2nd rounder
NY gives: Timmy / Vonleh / Mudiay / Lee

It would be tough to lose Vonleh. But I don't think we can chase free agents and expect to have a shot at him, it's one or the other. He's never had a big contract, and if a team offers him an MLE type deal he's not going to tell them to hold on while NY dances with every big name in the FA market.

Mudiay is better than DSJ now, so there's definite risk in that swap. But the contract situation is in DSJ's favour, and the upside is greater, I'd say. This would be a bet on Fizdale's ability to rehabilitate DSJ.

The deal would also create roughly ~24m extra in cap space next year on top of the $30 or so we have (depends on where we draft, and what the cap ends up being).

Any takers?



Another version, where we keep Timmy/Vonleh, but tough to see either Phoenix or Dallas agreeing to this unless the latter really wants TJ Warren and the former wants to clear the books:

Dallas gets: Lee / TJ Warren / NYK 2nd rounder
Dallas gives: Wessy Wes / DSJ

Phoenix gets: Mudiay / Hezonja
Phoenix gives: TJ Warren / Troy Daniels

NY gets: DSJ / Wessy (expiring) / Daniels (expiring)
NY gives: Mudiay / Lee / Hezonja / 2nd rounder

Kornet plays smart, usually, and has good hands. But he's so awkward when he gets out of his lane.  Both the post-up and the fast-break were well below NBA quality.

Timmy needs to stop losing players off the ball (he ball watches).

Mitch!

I'm ok with Kornet's limitations.   Him posting up?  Wasn't the whole point of starting him is to open up driving lanes?
