For eight months, federal authorities worked with sport leagues and agencies nationwide to identify illegal shipments of the goods, as well as stores and vendors selling counterfeit trademarked items. Many of the knockoffs were manufactured overseas, officials said. Chief litigation officer for the NFL, Anastasia Danias, cautioned fans and said that counterfeits were getting better. “If you see a price that’s too good to be true, it probably is,” Danias said. New York authorities announced earlier this week the arrest of two men they said made high-quality Super Bowl tickets and sold them online.

Feds seize phony NFL goods worth millions Federal authorities and the NFL said they seized more than $21.6 million worth of fake Super Bowl jerseys, hats and other goods in a counterfeit operation ahead of the big game. The results of “Operation Team Player” were announced Thursday in Manhattan. More than 50 people were arrested and more than 202,000 phony memorabilia were seized as part of the operation. “No good comes from counterfeiting American products regardless of whether they are jerseys, airbags or pharmaceuticals,” said John Sandweg,

Mayor Bill de Blasio moved Thursday to withdraw the city’s appeal of a federal ruling that declared the police department’s use of stop-andfrisk unconstitutional. Stop-and-frisk reforms ordered in that ruling would be carried out under an agreement between the city and civil rights lawyers who challenged the practice.
“We’re here today to turn the page on one of the most divisive problems in our city,” de Blasio said. The de Blasio administration asked in a court filing that an appeal to the ruling, filed by former Mayor Michael Bloomberg last year, be put on hold so that the case can be settled. Should the Court of
Appeals decide to remand the case to a lower court, the city will move to withdraw the appeal and settle with plaintiffs. Any settlement must be approved by a lower court judge. The city’s police unions, which remain wary of reforms, will be able to weigh in before the settlement is approved. ANNA SANDERS

Prostitution and drug ring busted before Super Bowl Cuffed. The group reportedly targeted wealthy people coming to watch the big game. A high-end prostitution and drug trafficking ring that was marketing its services to clientele headed to the city for the Super Bowl was busted early Thursday morning, authorities announced. Eighteen suspects have been charged with conspiracy, narcotics
sales, promoting prostitution, money laundering and other crimes. The arrests were the culmination of an 11-month undercover investigation conducted by Attorney General Eric Schneiderman’s Organized Crime Task Force and the NYPD. The crime ring is charged with selling “party packs,” involving cocaine and prostitutes, and laundering the illegal proceeds through front businesses such as a clothing wholesaler, a wig wholesaler and a limousine service, authorities said.
Dirty shame
“Drug trafficking and prostitution are a scourge on communities across our state.” Eric Schneiderman
Investigators say the suspects targeted wealthy out-of-town clients who were headed to the tri-state area for large events.

Coalition. De Blasio joins Mayors Against Illegal Guns group Mayor Bill de Blasio has joined Mayors Against Illegal Guns, a national bipartisan coalition cofounded by his predecessor. In joining Thursday, de Blasio praised former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s efforts with the group, which pushes for gun control regulations to keep illegal weapons out of cities. “We are taking every step within our power to protect our people, and we need our leaders in Washington and other states across the country to do the same,” de Blasio said in a statement. “Mayor Bloomberg took on this fight when few others would, and today we are safer for it. He built a national movement for commonsense gun control — one I am proud to join,” de Blasio continued. Bloomberg said it

Criminal background checks for gun purchases
•
Making gun trafficking a federal crime
•

The 43-year-old driver was dispatched to the vicinity of 27-40 Ericsson St. in East Elmhurst, police said. The suspect asked the driver to open the trunk to distract him. He then displayed a firearm and demanded property. The victim did not comply. Similar incidents occurred in the same area on Jan. 8 and Jan. 21. LAURA SHIN

Tsarnaev pleaded not guilty in July to 30 counts, including allegations he killed a university police oďŹƒcer. / JANE FLAVELL COLLINS
Accused Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev should be put to death if he is found guilty of planting bombs that killed three people and wounded 264 at the Boston Marathon last year, the U.S. government’s chief prosecutor said Thursday. U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said in a statement that he was authorizing trial prosecutors to seek the death penalty against Tsarnaev, who is charged with committing one of the largest attacks on U.S. soil since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. Prosecutors say that Tsarnaev, 20, and his 26-year-old brother Tamer-
lan planted a pair of homemade pressure-cooker bombs at the race’s crowded finish line on April 15, 2013, killing three people and wounding 264. Three nights later, the pair killed a university police officer and later engaged in a shootout with police that left Tamerlan dead, prosecutors say. The younger Tsarnaev pleaded not guilty to criminal charges in the worst mass-casualty attack on U.S. soil since 9/11. Justice Department officials said the nearly seven months since was necessary to evaluate fully the circumstances of the case and to gather recommendations from prosecutors advising Holder.

TOM FOREMAN FOREMAN IS A POLITICAL CORRESPONDENT FOR CNN.
TIME TO MOVE Every time the president even suggested something could be done in a bipartisan way, you could hear the giggles from the half-snoozing lawmakers. If John Boehner had rolled his eyes any further someone would have called an exorcist. Talk of bipartisan agreements is beginning to sound as ridiculous as the ramblings of a toothless codger who says he saw Big Foot. So what can you do about it? The answer is simple: Move. One key reason so many elected Democrats and Republicans, especially in the House, are so averse to compromise is that they come from “safe” districts. Their neighborhoods are so packed with people who lean in one direction, the steady message to these lawmakers is “if you want to get re-elected, do what

we say ... and to hell with the other side.” This has happened because we have segregated ourselves. Democrats have sought out communities full of like-minded souls driving Prius cars. Republicans have done the same — rushed to places full of “Nobama” yard signs. And in the process, we have all done our part to deepen the political divide. Sure, these are stereotypes and they’re not always true — but in a significant number of places they are being embraced. So like I said, if you want to make a difference, move to some place you don’t want to go to be among people with whom you disagree. Because if enough people do that, and more districts become balanced between left and right, then instead of just jerking their knee, the folks in D.C. will have to start thinking again.

Italy court says Knox guilty of murdering Meredith Kercher A Florence court handed down guilty verdicts for U.S. student Amanda Knox and her former Italian boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito on Thursday in a retrial for the 2007 murder of Briton Meredith Kercher, reversing an acquittal by a previous appeal ruling.
The verdict confirms an original 2009 conviction, and sentences Knox to serve 28 years and six months in jail. Sollecito was sentenced to 25 years. Knox is in the United States and any detention would depend on the outcome of yet another appeal and she would have to be extradited to serve the sentence. Sollecito is free pending a definitive confirmation of the verdict by Italy’s highest court but cannot travel out of the country. REUTERS

THE MOST SUPER OF BOWLS
Meows in the mix This year, the Hallmark Channel will debut the Kitten Bowl (premieres Sunday, Feb. 2, noon). And while it’s essentially exactly the same premise as the Puppy Bowl — balls of fluff tumbling over each other with a side helping of cutesy puns — Schachner welcomes the company. “You can never have enough adoption awareness out there,” he says of his feline competition, which benefits two no-kill shelters. “Next year, let’s do a Fish Bowl — we can do the entire animal kingdom.”

Fetch. Puppy Bowl referee Dan Schachner on adorable fouls, kitten competition and the best gig on television. Dan Schachner is going to have a far better Super Bowl Sunday than you. But don’t feel too bad — he’s also going to have a far better Super Bowl Sunday than John Elway or Peyton Manning ever could. Schachner is refereeing the one and only Puppy Bowl. “It’s really my job to decide what’s the most egregious foul — you have to pick your battles,” says Schachner, now in his third year of officiating Animal Planet’s much-anticipated fluff ball throw down. “We will not tolerate napping on the sidelines. We will not tolerate peeing on the field. Intentional growling, that’s a big one.” For the uninitiated, the Puppy Bowl is exactly what it sounds like, and yet not at all what anything sounds
like. More of a romp than a competition, the annual telecast features adoptable pups tumbling across a mini football field, occasionally stopping to chew on each other’s ears or sneak snuggles. “It’s every pup for himself,” admits Schachner. “You can’t organize puppies into teams — at least I haven’t figured it out.” Almost as important is the supporting cast, and this year Animal Planet brought in some serious talent to celebrate the bowl’s 10th year. In addition to penguin cheerleaders and a hamster-piloted blimp, Internet celeb Keyboard Cat will provide halftime entertainment, while Lil Bub has been tapped for commentary. That’s not to say the Puppy Bowl is strictly fun and games. There is, after all, a title at stake. “The Most Valuable Puppy, maybe he didn’t even score,” says Schachner of the afternoon’s official winner. “But he’s the puppy who showed the most spunk — who was the best puppy he could be.”

THE
Film. Efron talks love, nudity and his own “Awkward Moment.” We’ve all seen romantic comedies from the female perspective. Zac Efron is excited to turn the tables. “This is, I think, the first look really at what it’s like to be a guy dating at our age,” he told reporters at last week’s press conference for his new film, “That Awkward Moment.” The movie is about dating, sure, but at its crux the real relationship in the spotlight is the one between Efron’s character, Jason, and his two best friends, played by Michael B. Jordan and Miles Teller. “Sometimes it takes your best friends to get through it,” he says. And it’s good to have friends on your side during love’s many twists and turns. Efron says one of his favorite moments of the film — which he also produced — is when his character realizes he’s got someone special in Ellie, a writer he meets out one night. “For the first time, he’s flustered,” he says. “He’s never had this feeling before. He doesn’t quite know what it is, and he’s caught off guard.” It’s one of the film’s many awkward moments: “that moment of authenticity, of a guy who’s so smooth [meeting] somebody that he has no tricks for.” On a totally different level (literally and figuratively), one other standout awkward moment in the film finds Efron and his buddies forced to approach relieving themselves in a new and unusual way, thanks to the Viagra they’d taken earlier. “In real life I wouldn’t use that technique,” Efron says. “I think there’s other ways around it. Actually, it was a weird day of filming. … [I had] an elevated toilet in the middle of the room, built for this rea-

That was really awkward — everybody watching.” In case you were wondering, that means there’s some Efron skin in the film, which the actor says he is perfectly OK with. “If it’s authentic and helps the story and it’s necessary, then there’s nothing I wouldn’t try.”

Drama. Josh Brolin plays one smooth criminal in ‘Labor Day’ In Jason Reitman’s fifth film, Kate Winslet plays Adele, a jittery, vaguely unwell single mom who’s on son duty with teenaged Henry (Gattlin Griffith) when they’re held up by swarthy but hunky con Frank (Josh Brolin). Frank has escaped from prison and needs to lay low during the titular holiday weekend. If this sounds hairy, then you can relax. This taciturn, mumbling menace quickly reveals himself to be a teddy bear. He tends to neglected housework. He tends to neglected mom. And he makes pies — sweet, delicious, beautifully handcrafted peach pies that fill the dormant air with passion. He’s also a convicted murderer, but there’s probably a perfectly understandable explanation for that, too, so we have no reason to worry — or, ultimately, care. Since Reitman’s work (“Juno,” “Up in the Air”)

is only as good as the material, he goes down with the “Labor Day” ship. He’s not the only one. Adele’s is a stereotype of willowy, weak femininity, but Winslet tries to give her, if not dignity, then a degree of craft.

this ensemble of drag queens singing, dancing and strutting in corsets and 5-inch heels â&#x20AC;&#x201D; sometimes on a moving conveyor belt. (Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to see Peyton Manning try that!) The story follows a young man
who inherits his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shoe factory in times of economic turmoil and turns business around by investing in the niche market of making glam shoes for cross-dressing men. Drinks are available for purchase in the lobby.

Theater. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in town this weekend anyway, so why not also catch a play? This Sunday, Times Square will be overrun with events centering on Super Bowl XLVIII. But fear not: Sidewalks and streets are staying open to allow you to easily access all of the theaters on Broadway. As Charlotte St. Martin, executive director of the Broadway League, said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Broadway shows are rolling out the red carpet for visiting football fans to make it easy for them to see a show or two or three when in town.â&#x20AC;? This is especially good news since weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re smack in the middle of Broadway Week. That means
many titles are currently offering 2-for-1 tickets, which you can purchase at NYCGo.com/Broadway Week. And yes, that means the show will go on this Sunday â&#x20AC;&#x201D; matinee and evening plays are still on schedule, although some start times have been adjusted to accommodate the Big Game. You can find complete ticket information at Broadway. org, which also offers a map of Super Bowl Boulevard along with the surrounding routes that will remain open this weekend. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to totally ignore game day, you can still catch a show that puts you in the sporting spirit â&#x20AC;&#x201D; including several that actually encourage you to have a drink and some snacks as you watch.
â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Natasha, Pierre and the Great Comet of 1812â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Housed in a giant pop-up tent in the heart of the Theater District, this play offers more than just a show; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an immersive event staged in a supper club setting, which means that you get to dine and drink while watching a love story unfold straight from the pages of â&#x20AC;&#x153;War and Peace.â&#x20AC;? Said a representative for the show, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are certainly a good fit for those folks who want to go to a party that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t involve football â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but that DOES involve beer and vodka.â&#x20AC;? Your ticket gets you an aperitif, but plenty of other drinks and bites are available for purchase throughout the evening.
â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Bronx Bombersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; OK, so this might not be the right sport (the Yankees are soccer, right?) (just kidding), but this play will still put you in the professional sports mindset. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bronx Bombersâ&#x20AC;? brings together historic members of this legendary franchise who would never otherwise share the same room, including Babe Ruth, Joe DiMaggio, Lou Gehrig, Mickey Mantle and Derek Jeter. The core of the show is Yogi Berra and his wife, Carmen, revisiting the century that made the Yankees a team for the ages. Drinks are available for purchase in the lobby.

Ramona Singer files for divorce
Singer is now single. BRAVO
Sad news, yâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;all. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Real Housewives of New Yorkâ&#x20AC;? star Ramona Singer and her house husband, Mario Singer, are getting divorced after 22 years of marriage. Ramona filed papers in a Manhattan court on Tuesday. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not all that surprising â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Â the couple has been dodging rumors of an affair on Marioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s
part for months. Those rumors came to a head this weekend when Ramona, 57, caught her husband red-handed at their Hamptons home with his 27-year-old girlfriend (I wonder how big her eyes got when she saw THAT). â&#x20AC;&#x153;She made a big scene and called the police,â&#x20AC;? a source told People. Even worse? Folks
today to face an allegation of assault relating to an incident on Dec. 29, 2013,â&#x20AC;? Bieberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lawyer said in a statement.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sarah has been consulted on a stunning array of Vogueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s big moves. ... Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s totally entered the inner circle,â&#x20AC;? a source tells Radar Online. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Anna thinks Sarah, a fashion icon on â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Sex and the City,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; has what it takes.â&#x20AC;? SJP, for her part, isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wasting time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the fashion equivalent of running for president or being nominated to the Supreme Court, and Sarah is treating it that way.â&#x20AC;?
are whispering that Mario and the younger woman have been dating for over a year. A year! â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a personal and private matter for our family,â&#x20AC;? she told People in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For my daughter Averyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sake, I would appreciate everyone respecting our privacy during this difficult time.â&#x20AC;?
THE WORD
Talking points
Bieber turns himself in It turns out Justin Bieberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jaunt to Panama was just a breather between bookings. Less than a week after getting arrested in Miami, the Canadian pop star headed home to Toronto and promptly turned himself in to police, where he was ďŹ nger-printed and had his mug shot taken before being released on his own recognizance, according to E! News. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Toronto Police Service requested that Justin Bieber appear in Toronto
Could SJP be Vogueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s EIC? Anna Wintour has apparently been dropping hints that she has plans at Vogue for pal Sarah Jessica Parker, and the underlings are getting nervous.

Horoscope
Aquarius | Jan. 21-Feb 18. Dealing with an emotional partner will be a challenge for you today. Try to take an impartial view. Pisces | Feb. 19-March 20. Experiences in or around hospitals may leave you feeling a bit dejected. Try not to take anything too personally at this time. Your instincts are good, so follow your gut feelings. Aries | March 21-April 20. Today is a good day to initiate professional changes. Interviews with your boss could lead to advancement if handled correctly.
Taurus | April 21-May 21. A spontaneous outing will turn into a social event. You will gain a lot of insight from talking to peers or relatives today.
Leo | July 23-Aug. 22. A work situation is likely to make you emotional. An opportunity to make a career change will be beneficial, if taken.
Scorpio | Oct. 23-Nov. 21. Evasiveness is likely to occur. In-laws may be meddlesome. Avoid making any life-changing decisions today.
Gemini | May 22-June 20. Making a financial deal will require caution, as deception is likely. You may also have personal difficulties with someone close to you.
Virgo | Aug. 23-Sept. 22. Avoid impulsive individuals who offer you a business proposition. Travel. Romance is in the stars.
Sagittarius | Nov. 22-Dec. 21. Get out and socialize with friends. Do something physical in nature, and you may meet some interesting new people.
Cancer | June 21-July 22. Conversations with your business partner or lover may yield undesirable results. Now is not the time to make a force play. You will be frustrated.
Libra | Sept. 23-Oct. 22. Deception is present in your home environment. It would be best to deal with it head-on. Be clear, and you will find a solution to your problem. A residential move is likely at this time.
Capricorn | Dec. 22-Jan 20. You will have a hard time handling an emotional partner. Try to face the truth of the matter. Don’t let other people crush your spirit. BERNICE BEDE OSOL

How to play Fill in the grid so that every row, every column and every 3x3 box contains the digits 1-9. There is no math involved. You solve the puzzle with reasoning and logic.
Don’t get greedy for power, Mr. President The White House has made it clear that its agenda will be achieved in these last years of Barack Obama’s administration with or without the consent of Congress. Through the use of executive orders, this president intends to impose his personal will upon the country. We have three branches of government for a very good reason: to prevent just these sorts of dictatorial actions. Where is our vaunted press? Is it not their constitutionally protected right, and responsibility, that
demands they speak out against this behavior? Executive orders have been used by virtually all administrations, but rarely, if ever, in such blatant defiance of the will of Congress and thereby, the will of the people. Abraham Lincoln said it best: “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.” Mr. Obama is failing this test miserably. Has he forgotten his oath to “preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States”? E. CAMPBELL, VIA EMAIL

Getting down to business Super Bowl XLVIII. Both teams are looking forward to actually getting out on the field after two weeks off. The time for talk is finally — mercifully — over, as the Seahawks and Broncos take to the field Sunday night for Super Bowl XLVIII. You can bet the players and coaches are equally anxious to just get out on the field and play. “The schedule is the schedule. I think if they want to adjust it, they can,” Denver head coach John Fox said Thursday, referring to the two-week layoff. “We’ll be ready. I’m sure the Seahawks will be ready. It’s kind of what we do.” Seattle turned up the intensity in practice on Thursday — a tradition they call “Turnover Thurs-

day” and one they’ve stuck to all season. “We’re in Super Bowl week; we’re in countdown to the game,” Seattle head coach Pete Carroll said. “We’re not going to miss it. They’re not going to be not right. They’re going to be on. They’re going to be fired up. They’ll be flying
around.” “We’re getting down to the final days,” Seattle linebacker Bobby Wagner said. “We’re getting more excited. ... It’s time to play.”
MARK OSBORNE

Peyton Manning may be the exact polar opposite of brash-talking Seattle corner Richard Sherman. He showed it on Thursday when he answered Sherman’s criticism about Manning throwing “ducks,” or wobbly passes. “They say he is a smart player, and I think that’s a real reach with what he is saying there. I do throw ‘ducks,’” Manning said, laughing. “I’ve thrown a lot of yards and touchdowns ‘ducks.’” Manning set a record with 55 touchdowns in 2013. METRO
Top story lines
Seahawks vs. Broncos: Three things to watch Everything about Sunday’s game is big. The stakes are high, the winning team will be crowned the world champions and will enter the record books in the most elite of football company. But these stakes are only equaled by the immense media attention leading up to the game and the massive world stage hosting the annual event.

investment for an advertiser during the Super Bowl broadcast. This year, regular season NFL games were viewed by 5 percent more people than in 2012.

World’s biggest stage After 47 seasons, the Super Bowl has taken place in a temperate climate with a relaxed feel in a relatively small city such as Tampa or New Orleans.

way NFL championships are decided. The game, which after recent record cold in the Northeast appears to have reasonable weather expected, could open the door to games in other northern cities, like Philadelphia, should the event be a success.

World’s biggest stage There is no way to predict if Peyton Manning and the Broncos will be able to transfer their regular season scoring supremacy onto the field at MetLife Stadium. Nor can one surmise that the Seahawks, the NFL’s No. 1 scoring defense, will be able to take advantage of a Manning “duck,” to help support Russell Wilson and the Seattle offense. But one thing is for sure; the big play possibility in this Super Bowl is certainly a reason to watch. Manning threw for a record 55 touchdowns this season and his offense became the first ever to score more than 600 points in a season. Seattle ranks first in the entire NFL in points allowed, at just 14.4 ppg. EVAN MACY

LeGRAND
GESTURE
Eric LeGrand started a charity called “The bELieve Foundation” and has worked as a motivational speaker since suffering the career-ending injury in October 2010.

Super Bowl XLVIII. The former Rutgers star, and Broncos fan, received a shocking Super Bowl gift. An innocent comment during a radio interview landed Eric LeGrand two Super Bowl tickets and a dream come true for the lifelong Denver Broncos fan. LeGrand, the former Rutgers star defensive lineman from Avenel, N.J., was paralyzed on Oct. 16, 2010, in a collision with an Army football player. Since that injury, he has become a nationally recognized speaker and media per-
sonality, and he made an appearance earlier this week on a SiriusXM show hosted by Gil Brandt. The former Cowboys executive went through the standard radio interview questions with LeGrand, asking about the Super Bowl and his continued progress in rehabilitating from the injury. But when LeGrand said he was still looking for tickets to root on his Broncos on Sunday night, Brandt dropped a bombshell with little hesitation. “It was toward the end of the interview when I brought it up, that I was looking for tickets,” LeGrand told Metro. “He then said, ‘I will make sure that the NFL gets you tickets.’ I had never met him before. I was floored.

LeGrand has been to MetLife Stadium since being injured, but he knows there will be a moment during Super Bowl XLVIII when he will glance to the spot he was injured. •
“My heart drops every time I look at that spot on the field,” LeGrand said. “That’s where my life was changed forever.”

beat,” Brandt told Metro. “This guy is talking about raising $90,000 to get a machine to help others suffering from similar injuries. He was focused on being positive, helping others. Not himself.” There are no tickets in his possession yet, as they will be arriving in the mail, LeGrand said. He admits he will probably stare at them “for a little bit when they come to my house.” In all likelihood, he will bring his mother to the game as his guest, even though she isn’t a Broncos fan. She likes both quarterbacks in Sunday’s game, but LeGrand hopes she will be cheering for the Broncos. While he will be milehigh to see his team, he is ready for what will surely be an emotional event. The site of Sunday’s game, after all, is the same field where he saw his playing career end. The 25-yard line on the northwestern side of MetLife Stadium is where he laid motionless for minutes. It was there that he took his last steps and made his last hit on the football field.

TIME TO WORRY ABOUT NBA TRADES The fantasy values of NBA players rise and fall like dominoes, with one move setting off a chain reaction in rotations. The trade deadline provides us with an annual chance to capitalize. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deadline falls on Thursday, Feb. 20. Lazy owners will wait to see what trades happen and then try to make an add. Winning owners will make proactive moves to prepare.
FANTASY
ADAM LEVITAN, LIVING THE FANTASY METROâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S FANTASY GURU BREAKS IT ALL DOWN.
Seventy-tankers Anyone keeping the tanking Sixers from getting ping-pong balls in the 2014 NBA Draft has to go. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s especially true for Evan Turner, who is in the final year of his rookie deal and highly unlikely to be resigned anyway. Look for the Sixers to dump him for an expiring contract or some other dust, therefore crippling the reasonable fantasy value heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s held all season long. On a good team, Turner is no better than a seventh or eighth man â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not the No. 1 option heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been in Philadelphia this year. Fantasy owners need to sell now.
The Ravens have hired former Texans head coach Gary Kubiak as their oďŹ&#x20AC;ensive coordinator. His Mike Shanahan running scheme is good news for Ray Rice, but the hire is even better news for Dennis Pitta.

Jam Jameer Jameer Nelson will turn 32 next week, is in the final year of his deal and the Magic are rebuilding. In other words, a trade is very possible. It would open up room for the Magic to start rookie Victor Oladipo and Arron Afflalo every night, thus handing the reigns to their blossoming future star. Over the last 15 games, Oladipo is averaging 15.9 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.2 assists and 1.6 steals per game. Only Michael CarterWilliams has been more impressive among firstyear players.

The New Orleans Pelicans would probably like to trade the oft-injured, one-dimensional guard Eric Gordon. But will anyone be willing to bite on the four-year, $58 million contract he signed in July 2012? Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see. If they do, talented Tyreke Evans would take his rightful place back in the starting five as a scorer and distributor capable of a big fantasy impact. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth throwing into some buy-low offers.
