Mehmet Okur, the first Turkish player to win the NBA title, returned from USA and held a press conference at the Ataturk Airport. Okur said that his first option is to stay in Detroit Piston. "I had good days there. I have no problem with anybody. Chairman and coach want me to stay in Detroit." However, Mehmet added that he is professional player and is open other offers if Detroit fails to renew contract. </div> Link
i think Memo will have to turn down more money if he's going to stay in Detroit. i'd love to see Memo stay and we keep our team in tact, but i wouldn't be surprised to see Memo leave for more money and more minutes. i wouldn't really blame him, either.
