Fuck Evan Turner for being one of the worst Blazers in the last decade. Fuck Neil Olshey for giving him a contract that literally everyone knew would be shit and unmovable. Fuck Terry Stotts for playing him 25+ undeserved MPG.
Neil envisioned him as our Draymond Green when he offered him that absurd contract. Thanks Neil, you ruined my life!
I made two tiers. One where I just don't like the attitude of the person (Felton is #1), and then just hate the game of the player (TURNER IS #1 and it's not even close lol) And to make matters worse, I defended Turner for awhile. But it's too obvious now.
Felton is 2-3 tiers seperated from everyone else. I'd put Crawford inbetween Felton and Turner still.
At least Crawford was a good guy and generally good player that happened to end up in a bad situation. I've seen some bad, very lewd stuff from ET in IG comments that paints him in a bad light. He's also a bad player in a good situation with a very questionable work ethic whos never improved any of his weaknesses.
I can't wait till he is gone. Get that piece of shit off the team. Bench his ass till he is gone. Neil fucked up and he needs to take responsibilty. Eat the contract and ride him. Play Layman instead. We will start winning games.
you have to hand it to Olshey...he really likes to double down on his mistakes * he matches the asinine offer sheet to Allen Crabbe; basically pays him nearly 40 million for 1 year of below average basketball; then trades him to Brooklyn so the Blazers can carry a 2.9M/year blot on salary cap for 7 years * against all reason he reportedly offers Meyers a 15M/year deal...which Meyers refuses; a year later after Meyers has a mediocre season, Olshey gives Meyers a 10M/year deal; 2 years later in a move that opens up minutes for Meyers, but doesn't help the team, Olshey lets Ed Davis walk...but his boy Meyers has opportunity to "space the floor" * against all reason, Olshey bids against himself and offers Turner a ridiculous contract. Turner is so giddy about the loopy offer he calls his friend Iggy to tell him about it and Iggy tells him to sign immediately. It become quickly obvious that Turner is a poor player and a square peg in a round hole league. So what does Olshey do? By his own words, he designs a bench around the talents of Turner....and look how that is turning out sorry, I know this thread is about Turner, but I don't blame Turner for what he is as much as a blame the architect of the situation that forces us to watch Turner every game
To me, he looks like he's got old before our eyes. Maybe he's not healthy. He's lacking explosiveness to the hoop, and missing all those lowpost shots he use to make. He looks uber stiff out there. I don't think he's as bad as some in here since he's been here, but he's struggling bad this year.
Just saw that Collins now has a total of ONE point in THREE GAMES versus the Warriors. Not getting it done.
