Are people finally going to star giving Hedo the credit has earned this year? All year people have doubted him and said he wasn't as good as this guy or that guy. One of those guys was Richard Jefferson. Tonight, match up against each other...

Jefferson - 11 pts., 1 reb., 4 ast., 0 stl., 0 blk., 5-15 shooting.
Turkoglu - 19 pts., 3 reb., 6 ast., 1 stl., 0 blk., 7-13 shooting.

and the Magic won by 16. Not a bad way to follow up a triple double.

thank you for this wonderful thread

So every time a decent player puts up a decent game there is a thread for it.......

I don't know, I only posted this one. And the point is about more than just this one game, it is about underrated and overrated players, and how long people will blindly accept one player as better than the other just because they have the bigger name. If you do not like the thread, then by all means, I won't force you to post in it.

To be fair:

1. RJ is playing injured.
2. RJ doesn't have a Dwight Howard that draws double team after double team and allows him to get wide-open shots.
3. The Nets don't have a offense. Or a defense for that matter...

Also I'm not really sure what you're getting at, one game doesn't make one player better than another, I mean using that logic Joe Johnson > Kobe...

The Hedo hype is ridiculous...

As a Nets fan, I still say Hedo is severely underrated.

you are correct sir

Jefferson is more proven. He just had a tough time shooting over 6'10 Turk.

Paul pierce got Turkowned too lol. I love that name. Pierce got Turkowned when Hedo hit that buzzer on Pierce and some other C's face. We the Wizards got Turkowned at some point as well. How big is Hedo? I put him at 6-8 to 6-10. He really seems like a mismatch. In my mind hes the second best player on the Magic

He is 6'10''. And yes, I plan to copyright the term Turkowned.
