I wish they'd just say it and decide already, like right now, after seeing pretty much everyone else verbally agree to a contract so fast.. I guess I'm just a little too excited right now, and want to know for sure if Hedo will be here right now
That's a great idea (from the article) I'm going to go find this entourage and yell, "HEY, TURKEYGLUE, GO BACK TO TURKEY!" And I'd save the team forever.
Save us from making it to the second round next year and WCF the following year? Then NO THANKS to you!
"McMillan, who dined with Turkoglu on Wednesday night in Orlando, has been emphatic in his endorsement of Turkoglu, urging Pritchard to seal the deal." I knew it.
I can never wrap my head around why coach McMillan having the players he wants is such a bad thing to some? Isn't that the ideal situation? The coach has his system, gets the players he needs for his system, and then the system is allowed to work.
Did any of you hear that Sacto announcer on the BFT this afternoon? Nothing but high praise for Turk....while also saying that, if the Blazers sign Hedo, their WFC viability instantly goes from 3 years to two years.......just like that. He related that Turk was the consummate teammate, will take a boatload of pressure off Brandon, masterfully orchestrates the pick and roll, drives with ease (essentially forcing the play), and is playing at a much, much higher level these past few years than he ever played while in Sacto......while also admitting that he was an excellent player while there. He also indicated that, in his opinion, Hedo is a 2nd-tier player just under the likes of LeBron, Kobe, Dwight, D-Wade, & Co. In other words, he was incredibly complimentary.
I think it only applies negatively to PGs. If Nate likes Hedo I'm that much more in favor of Hedo. If Nate likes Jarrett Jack or Taurean Green, um, not so much. barfo
Nate wanted Taureen Green too. Just saying, I hope KP doesnt base his decision on Nate or his feelings.
What about point forwards? That's like half a point guard. You should be half-enthused, half-dismayed.
Off the subject but curious, This is coming from one of Martell Websters biggest fans, is he changing his number to his high school 23 for sure or just rumor...Plus that way Nic can have 8 which he has wanted and wore in France...fill me in?
I don't think it matters. Martell is probably going to be wearing a suit next season wondering if his foot is ever going to fully heal ... not wishing for it, just seems like par for the course at this point.
Martell is changing to 23 because he does not want to be traded to Chicago in the Hinrich deal - and they have 23 retired.
