Turkish NT name extended World Cup roster: NBAers Omer Asik and Enes Kanter both in. Semih Erden not invited.




I think he needs to play some ball... I hope we can watch him contribute at Nationalteam... Experience is something he needs most.

What about you ???

It would be great to watch Enes and Dante and Rudy in this world cup.

This seems odd. I'm just done with Enes. It's always something with him. And he seems to like it which makes it worse.

I have chosen Big Al.

I think it would be good if he played. Seems his knee injection may not sideline him for this afterall. If he does play that should ensure that he is 100% ready for the season.

I think this is good news. Sounds like Enes is feeling better. And I'll bet he cleared it with the Jazz.

Can anyone in SLC confirm he is fasting?
FYI fasting is a painful Muslim ritual. You eat or drink strictly nothing all day in the month of Ramadan.
This is a big problem for Muslim athletes. Usually it takes about 4-5 weeks to fully recover.

i doubt all muslim athletes do it, unless they are overreligious. Plus it is not so hard, our body can adapt to physical differences. And it is not like you dont eat or drink 24 hours, just from sunrise to sunset you close your mouth, and zip your pants. But of course it is not recommended for athletes.

Hakeem Olajuwon fasted. If you compared the stats of the months he fasted to when he didn't fast he had just as good if not better stats. Herschel walker fasted for non religious reasons granted he drunk liquids though. It didn't stop him either. Gatorade marketing has done a really good job at overemphasizing staying hydrated.

Check out this video for example. Peyton mannings gives one piece of advice to Christian Ponder (at least that made the cut). It isn't to practice, it isn't a special technique, it is to stay hydrated.

Can you give me the stats to a single Muslim athlete who fasted that had worst performance/stats compared to when not fasting or do you always love to make claims without evidence?

Wait what? Explain your over sensitivity to Mr. Kanter playing for his national team.
