Your beard was good. And the towel waving seemed to help. And sometimes you acted crazy, which made me laugh.

Best Center on the team, not named Chris Bosh, is gone.

Best Bench player ever. And by Bench player i mean a player that actually contributes while seating on the bench.

I'll miss Ronny's enthusiasm. Good luck with the Clippers.

meh!
Turned down the option he had with us for the same pay at the Clippers.
Won't be missed, did nothing other than act a loon on the bench.

He played in California for 5 years of his 7 year nba career
So that may have taken part in his decision

nice, but he only played about 220 mins in the season and half that in the playoffs.
He's no Chris Quinn

Yes, Turiaf had a player option but opted out. He probably wanted more play time.
I really liked him but he was always injured despite not really playing...
Now that Evans is gone, I think Turiaf will now get some playing time. He's definitely going to have fun on the bench with those Blake dunks LOL!

Why Ronny ? Makes no sens, unless the FO didn't want him back. He said he wanted to finish his career in
Florida so his grandma would be able to come see him play ???? I'm disappointed...

Yeah, can't wait to see his reaction when Blake Mozgovs somebody.

Just saw Ronny Turiaf getting on a bus with French teammates in London. He was carrying a towel. Not waving it, oddly enough.

He brought enthusiasm to the bench, too bad he couldn't stay healthy. My favorite was when he got the And 1 against Indiana, that celebration was gold, too bad he missed the free throw. Good pick up for the Clips as long as they don't ask too much of him.

Great energy guy on the bench. Elite level cheerleading. Too bad he just can't stay healthy, otherwise we'd probably have tried to keep him. Hell...he'd probably have played more too. I wish him the best of luck, and I'm sure he's gonna love celebrating many a Blake monster jam.
BRAVEHEART!!!! PEACE.
