The website says Turkey (Kanter's team) starts playing August 31st, but I read somewhere else that they start playing August 12st, which is the right date?

The Turkish squad will gather in Antalya on July 10 before flying to Italy on July 16 for a 15-day training camp. After that, the team will compete in the Efes Pilsen World Cup in Izmir on August 8, the Super Cup in Germany, before ending their preparation with a stint in the Adidas Cup in Istanbul.

Hopefully that means the 8th for kanter as well.

I'm excited.

I read that Deron Williams is going to sign with Turkey, mabey he can teach Kanter something.

^^ Deron Williams may play for a professional club in Turkey, he's obviously not going to be playing for the Turkish national team.

It looks like Turkey, Spain and Lithuania are all in the same group for Eurobasket, which means we may get to see Kanter match up against the likes of Valanciunas and the Gasol brothers.

I demand someone make a highlight reel for every game Kanter participates in.

Tommorow Turkey plays its first friendly game against Ukraine at 1:30 pm EDT. Will be a nice matchup between the 2 Jazz Players Kanter and Fesenko.
And the next 2 days Turkey plays against Germany (without Dirk and Kaman) and Serbia.

Are the games being shown on TV or do they have an official live-stream?
