The New York Daily News reports: "Mirsad Turkcan is making a strong case to become a starter. Or at least he thinks so.
The rookie forward from Turkey recently approached Jeff Van Gundy and reasoned that he was the only natural small
forward on the roster. According to Van Gundy, the conversation went something like this: "You got no three," said Turkcan.
"I have no three?" said Van Gundy. "What about Larry Johnson?" "He four." "What about Latrell Sprewell?" "He two. Me
three." "You three, me fired." "
====================
As much as I don't like Jeff "Balky" Van Gunde, I must admit, he's pretty damn funny.
