How do you say, "Enes, go look in the mirror" in Turkish?

First off, I mean no disrespect to the posters from Turkey on this forum. As I've said before, you guys are great for being fans of the team and not just Memo or Enes. As an American Jazz fan, I have no non-US ties. When Memo was here, I wanted Turkey to do well, along with AK and Russia. For this tournament, my loyalties have been with France and Germany.
But - and I apologize for this - I take pleasure in Turkey being ousted by Gobert/France and Enes' reaction. In typical Kanter fashion, he is 100% about himself. I'm sure his inclusion on the national team would have made all the difference.
And now that you mention it, fufo, I do remember that comment after a loss. Next to the definition of ******* , they should put a picture of Kanter's face.
Do I hate Kanter? Just a bit.

First of all, I hate him as well. Mostly because of his childish, butt-hurt, immature statements about the Jazz organization, the team drafted him with full trust eventhough he hadn't even played a minute in college. (Shipped Big Al-Millsap, opened room for him, did everything they could) You can not hear that type of unprofessional, classless thoughts from any of the Turkish players. Hedo, Ersan, Ömer, Furkan or even Zaza Pachulia (who raised in Turkey). 0 possibility. Personally, i believe Turkey's reputation in the NBA went down with his statements.
However, exclusion of Enes was a 99% political decision, (not because he rejected the invite in the past) so i can't blame him that much. I do not support both of these political communities neither current ruling party in Turkey nor the community Enes supports. He even promotes the organization heavily.
Politics can't be, should not be a part of sports. He should've been invited.
I still hate him.

He was horrible last time he was in NBA for Twolves.
Dont just judge a roster by how many NBA guys it has. Ask Canada.

Yes, but outside of Wiggins, and I guess Bennett, the Canadian NBA players are scrubs. Oops, sorry, I just offended the Stauskas fans.
Edit: I take that back (but just a little). They also have Joseph and Olynyk. So I guess a couple more fringe players.
Olynk was the the guy who gave Canada a chance. I think he is more than a fringe player. Lets remember that Wiggins is not really close to the player he should be. Canada's time will be probably more for 2019-2020 World Cup and Olympics.

Serbia know how to finish games. I think they will win the competition. France has good players with a system they are not settled in yet.

I predicted Serbia win before the tournament started. Someone on this board thought the Croatians were better. Whoops. I think we are better off that Tomic decided not to come over. He was horrible and made Vesely look like greatest player ever.
