<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">SEATTLE - The Seattle SuperSonics have waived guard Ibrahim Kutluay and activated guard Mateen Cleaves from the injured list, General Manager Rick Sund announced today. Kutluay, 31, who was signed as a free agent on Sep. 22, played in five games after being activated from the injured list on Dec. 14. In 12 minutes of action, he grabbed one rebound and committed two turnovers. Kutluay became just the fourth Turkish player in NBA history when he made his debut on Dec. 22 vs. Denver. He missed the season's first 21 games with patellar tendinitis in his left knee.</div> <div align="center">Full Story</div> Iverson was raving about this guy during the offseason, and now he?s available. I highly doubt any teams are looking at him right now, so should King pursue him once again? Remember Iverson was the one who bluntly said that he could see himself winning a championship alongside Kutluay. So that speaks a lot for itself. If Iverson our very own franchise player had the guts to actually say that shows how much confidence he has in this guy. So should King give Iverson what he wants? To be honest, at this point I don?t really see the need for him, but at the same time we could use another sharpshooter?
I can't seen him being good if he couldn't even crack the rotation in Seattle....AI probably thought he looked good in the Olympics, so he made a pitch for him....International basketball is very different from NBA basketball...
I don't know. As of now I don't think we really need a player like him on are team. We already have enough guards/swingmen so I doubt he would get much playing time. But hey, obviously Allen sees something in him, we could maybe give him a shot at a 10-day contract, but usually those are only used if needed and we don't need Kutluay.
IMO I`d give him a 10-day contract to see if he can prove anything, but as of right now, I think he would just take up space.
Right now Philadelphia has one of the most deepest rotations in the league. So what's the point of adding this guy if some of our better players don't even get that many consistent minutes? I highly doubt this guy has much skills that will improve us. Like someone said, international basketball is much different than the NBA so I don't really think he would adjust effectively enough to have an impact.
He signed on with a team in Greece, so you can forget about whatever possibillity of the Sixers signing him....
What is his race. Is he good enough to play with the sixers. Did it say what Iverson saw in him. philadelphia is starting to realize what they have and r starting to come together. If they when today they are in the top spot of the Atlantic division. Because they beat boston twice. LET'S GO PHILLY WERE PEOPLE GET ILLY.
