​Turkish prosecutors are really out to get Enes Kanter, but the New York Knicks' tough guy center isn't worried. He's too focused on his game.





Prosecutors want a four-year jail term for Kanter, charging him with insulting Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, which is a big no-no in his home country. Kanter obviously can't travel back to Turkey for a trial, so they are going to try him in absentia, which in most cases, wouldn't be good.





Kanter isn't too worried though, he's making light of the entire situation and showed off his laid back attitude with a pretty awesome quote.

Enes Kanter put on a very brave face about trial in absentia seeking 4 year prison sentence in Turkey for criticizing Erdogan. "Four years? That's it? For all of the trash I've been talking?" — Steve Popper (@StevePopper) December 20, 2017

More trash talk! What else would you expect from Kanter? He doesn't back down from anyone, even if it's a man with as much dictatorial power as the Turkish President.





Kanter feels like the best revenge would be for the Knicks to win and for him to play on bigger stages in front of more people.

Pretty commendable for him to keep his eyes on the prize despite the pretty drastic circumstances.





Knicks fans will definitely hope he succeeds in this task.
