In a statement Thursday, the NBA said fans in Turkey could still watch Kanter and the Trail Blazers on NBA League Pass and NBA TV International, and that the league had ended its deal with NBA Turkey Twitter.
Heido Turkuglu works for Erdogan. Yes, that fool we once signed for $50mil ... And his wife preferred to Toronto?
I'm with Kanter on this 100%. I actually have an ex girlfriend, Ozge, who is in prison right now in Turkey indefinitely just for protesting. It's a crazy situation, and Erdogan needs to go. He has turned a really beautiful country into a hellhole.
Haha. We were a couple about 5 years ago. She ended up hating Portland (she was mainly just homesick) and we broke up when she moved back to Istanbul. I have kept in contact with her as much as I could, but found out from her sister that she is currently in prison as a dissident. It sucks. She is a really sweet human and doesn't deserve a life like that. Still kind of heartbroken over it.
I really hope so as well. Under the current administration though, I honestly don't see it happening. It's pretty depressing. She deserves better than that.
She isn't allowed anything. Ozge is basically dead to the rest of the world. I only know about all of this because her sister added me on Facebook like 5 years ago on a whim.
Of course I didn't learn my lesson and dated a girl from Russia directly afterwards...... ugh I hope this doesn't offend anyone, but Russian people are fucking insane.
Wait, wasn't Kanter just in OK a week or so ago? I seem to remember us playing a practice team there or something...
