Might not be thread worthy but hell, I wonder what Evan Turner's self-esteem is at right now knowing he got crossed over TWICE in the same game by Steve **** Blake.

C'mon Steve, you have to DUNK that on the first play. You only had Tyler Zeller in your way. :lol:

I'll defend Turner. In both instances Turner was expecting the pick and Blake just went the other way. Not like they were out on an island and he straight crossed. Turner was already moving expecting to have to go through the screen.

Very nice, although the announcers made it seem like Blake was just tying his shoes.

In both instances, Turner completely overreacts, shows his hand which allows Blake to make the move.

It was terrible defense, no way around it.

not gonna lie, crossovers with a screener doesn't really count for me. Sometimes defenders just go get ready to fight the screen and go one way.

Crossovers just 1 on 1 are the best.

Brad Stevens using Turner to guard PGs is simply idiotic.

We have a guy over on the raptors board that wanted Derozan gone for either evan turner or gerald henderson. See my sig.
On Gerald Henderson vs Derozan:
"Yes. Hendo is quite a bit better than DeMar.
So yes, I do believe he's currently the better player and do project that will continue to be in the future. I would also take Turner over DD."

Plenty of teams have homer commentators and that doesn't really bother me. Boston though... they are just terrible. Every Boston player plays like an old hall of fame player, and every foul against the Celtics is a crime against basketball itself.

Why just pick on Evan? Is that Bass that lost his man too? Both offensive players were open.

it counts when you're sprinting in the opposite direction like you're trying to escape from a rabid dog while the guy is behind you splashing a 3
