Enes Kanter meets with GM, doesn't ask for trade

Enes Kanter met with New York Knicks general manager Scott Perry on Monday to discuss his frustration amid the team's losing and his diminished role, but he did not request a trade.

"I did not say, 'Scott, try and trade me.' No I did not say that,'' Kanter told reporters after the Knicks' loss in Denver on Tuesday night. " Because I like it here a lot. And I probably won't say to Scott's face, 'Scott I want to get traded.' Because I like it here a lot. But again, in the end, we all are competitors, basketball players.
