PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Carmelo Anthony is Positive . A complicated era is over.  Carmelo Anthony  finally escaped New York.
After months of posturing and misdirection regarding  his  future   the Knicks  agreed to ship the greatest Knick since Patrick Ewing to the Oklahoma City Thunder for Doug McDermott  Enes Kanter and a 2018 second-round pick  a source confirmed Saturday.
Two role players is a small haul for a player of Anthonyâs stature and scoring prowess  but  the Knicks  were never getting a comparable return. Both sides just needed to move on after a long and contentious divorce period.
 Carmelo Anthony  is getting  his  wish and will be leaving  the Knicks  just days before start of training camp.
During and after Phil Jacksonâs tenure   the Knicks  made it known that  Anthony  was no longer part of  their  plans. But  they  couldnât agree to a deal to satisfy Anthonyâs desire of playing for the Rockets  setting in motion fears that the small forward would make it to another  Knicks  training camp.
 Knicks  reach out to Cavs about a potential  Carmelo Anthony  trade
 He  didnât want that.
Less than two weeks ago  according to a source   Anthony  opened up  his  options to three destinations â including the Rockets â to pressure  the Knicks  to get a deal done before having to attend Media Day in New York on Monday. As the Daily News first reported   the Knicks  reached out to the Cavs recently with the understanding that  Anthony  would waive  his  no-trade clause to join buddy LeBron James. However  the Cavs were unwilling to part with Tristan Thompson or Kevin Love.
The Thunder were also on  Anthony âs list  and there is an important connection: Assistant GM Troy Weaver formerly coached  Anthony  at Syracuse  and the two remain close. Beyond that  the Thunder will boast a trio (Anthony  Russell Westbrook  Paul George) as lethal offensively as any in the NBA. To complete the deal   Anthony  not only had to waive  his  no-trade clause   he  sacrificed a trade kicker worth $8.1 million.  He  leaves the biggest NBA market for one of the smallest  an ironic move considering  he  pushed so hard to travel the opposite way six years ago for  his  trade to the Knicks. New York is the city that never sleeps and Oklahoma Cityâs stores all close by 6 p.m. But digital media has changed the landscape such that stars can get exposure and endorsements in any market. The Thunder have 27 games on national television this season  compared to New Yorkâs eight.

The Knicks are projected to land in the lottery again  while challenged to replace Anthonyâs 22-plus points per game. Theyâll be really bad  but itâs easy to find the long-term reasons for dealing  Anthony : it creates a faster transition into the Kristaps Porzingis era; it eliminates potential distractions and another controversy; it jibes with New Yorkâs tanking strategy in the final year of the current draft lottery system.

 Anthony  wouldâve been traded long ago if  he  wasnât one of only three NBA players with a no-trade clause. It was given to  Anthony  by Jackson â along with a $124 million contract â in 2014. Before that   he  led the Knicks to a division title  a playoff series victory and set the franchise record for most points in a game (62).
But everything went downhill after Jackson took over as president  culminating Saturday with  Anthony  leaving the Knicks â a marriage once meant to save the franchise.

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Boyle is Neutral . The family was rescued on Thursday after Pakistani security forces ambushed their captors. The family left Pakistan for an undisclosed location  according to US officials  after  Boyle  refused to board a US transport plane over concerns about  his  background.
 Boyle  was formerly married to Zaynab Khadr  the older sister of Omar Khadr  a former Guantanamo Bay detainee  and the son of a prominent Al-Qaeda financier. Omar Khadr â then only 15 years old â was captured by US forces following a firefight that left a US Army Sergeant dead in 2002.
Coleman gave birth to three children in captivity  and  Boyle  delivered at least one with a flashlight in his mouth before captors brought them "all [their] postpartum needs."
 Boyle  says  he  tried to "play Beautiful Life" for  his  kids  referencing the 1997 Italian film "Life is Beautiful" about a father who tries to convince  his  son that the concentration camp they are both in during WWII is just pretend
 Boyle  says the last thing  he  heard from  his  captors while the family was in the trunk of a car during a firefight was "kill the hostages." The captors  however  were killed by Pakistani forces before they could follow through
Editor's note: The quote about the couple's children seeing their mother defiled was initially misattributed to  Joshua Boyle . The quote was in fact from  his  wife Caitlan Coleman.

SOLUTION: yes

PROBLEM: Verify if the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Mary Taylor is Negative . Corrections & Clarifications: A previous version of this story had the incorrect years for when  John Kasich and Mary Taylor  ran for office.  They  were 2010 and 2014.
Lt.  Gov. Mary Taylor  told a large group of Clermont County (Ohio) Republicans during  her  interview for their endorsement Jan. 17 that Kasich had endorsed Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine and his running mate  Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted  two Republicans in the room confirmed to The Cincinnati Enquirer.
"She said it’s widely known that Jon Husted and Mike DeWine have been endorsed by Gov. Kasich " said Greg Simpson  a township executive for the Clermont County Republican Party. "I about fell off my chair  because it’s widely known that John Kasich had endorsed  Mary Taylor ."
 Taylor  was responding to a question about how  she  separated  herself  from the governor in a conservative county where that separation could make a difference. Simpson voted to endorse DeWine but the county party ultimately backed  Taylor  by a two-to-one margin.
"During ( Taylor 's) speech at the endorsement meeting last Wednesday   she  said that  she  has not seen the governor for about a year and that Kasich is endorsing DeWine " Dave Uible  Clermont County GOP chairman  said in a text message.
"Siri  who did John Kasich endorse in the governor's race?" Husted asked his iPhone  already knowing the answer. An article from The Cincinnati Enquirer popped up  titled "John Kasich backs  Mary Taylor  for Ohio governor. Will it help?"
Husted held the cellphone up for Clermont County Republicans during his interview. See  he told them  Kasich was backing  Taylor .
Kasich's decisions to expand Medicaid to lower-income Ohioans and bash President Trump have upset Republicans there. Distancing  herself  from Kasich helped  Taylor  secure the Clermont County endorsement  Uible said.
 Taylor 's campaign spokesman Michael Duchesne said  Taylor  didn't lie to the Clermont County Republican Party about Kasich's endorsement.
But  Taylor  did point out  Duchesne said  that  she  had not spoken to Kasich in more than a year  Kasich has not been an active participant in the  Taylor  campaign and DeWine's campaign manager  Dave Luketic  is a Kasich veteran. (Luketic was the political director of both a Super PAC supporting Kasich's presidential bid and the governor's 2014 re-election bid with  Taylor .)
 Taylor  might be distancing  herself  from Kasich now that  she 's seeking endorsements from Ohio's conservatives for  her  gubernatorial campaign  but that wasn't always the case.
 Taylor  campaigned for Kasich in his presidential bid against a slew of GOP candidates  including Trump  in 2015 and 2016.  She  stumped for Kasich from New Hampshire and Utah to Ohio and  she  was a delegate for Kasich at the Republican convention.
"We have a chance now in our country to send somebody to Washington who displays the conservative leadership that is going to get our country back on track. He's done it in Ohio "  Taylor  told a crowd before a presidential debate in Boulder  Colo.  in 2015. "He is a proven leader. That proves he can win."
And now? "The majority of his team and people close to him are supporting Mike DeWine "  Taylor  told the Columbus Dispatch during a podcast last week. "I expect that that's the way it's going to continue  and we're going to continue to run this race and be the alternative to the establishment."
DeWine hasn't sought Kasich's endorsement because the governor gave it to  Taylor   DeWine spokesman Ryan Stubenrauch said.
