    This is preseason though. Also to another point. Turner was way more productive last year before injury than Harkless has ever been. So maybe this thing might be the best way? Harkless just seems to disappear. I like him a lot when he plays well but he just seem to go completely AWOL.
    Then there is a article i think by Freeman that has Dame quoting about what Turner brings when he plays Point Forward. Just lets both CJ and Dame relax a bit and play off ball. He seems to think it helps take some of the focus off him.

    The more I think about the current SF rotation the less I think it really matters. I mean what the difference if ET starts or not, he is only in there for about 6 minutes before he comes out and comes back in to start the 2nd quarter. The plus side is he is not coming back in entirely cold when he has to run the offense with the 2nd unit....since he has already played. I have changed my mind so many times on this I really don't care one way or the other. As long as we are ahead when he goes out.

    We will know more after a few more games. Unfortunately we may not know who finishes the games until the regular season.

    Only chance I think the ref who's job it is to make that call. Makes the call is if they specifically watch film on it.
    IMO if that happens, that means Nurk is having a gigantic season and teams are sending in film to the league office to 'raise awareness'.

    But that's the thing. It's not really an illegal move.

    Reminds me of Karl Malone getting his elbow fouled by defender's faces.

    It's nothing like that blatant Malone elbow. It's far sneakier
