....Turkoglu? 

Post#1 » by Visigoth » Mon Jul 12, 2010 1:30 pm

Hey guys, Raps fan here. Now, please don't flame me or anything for this post. I'm just here to ask: why on EARTH is your FO doing this deal? Turkoglu is a TERRIBLE player when he doesn't hold the ball (that was his problem in our team, we had 2 starting-level pg's... and why he dominated in Orlando, where there wasn't a pg), and placing him on the team which has the leagues most ball-dominant point guard is a horrid decision.

Again, I'm just saying this as a raptors fan confused at why you guys are doing this. This is as close to a miracle as raptor fans have seen lately...

Exactly what FO are you referring to? Last I checked we didn't have one :(

You don't have to convince me. He's on the down side of his career, his contract is an albatross, and we seem determined to play him out of position at PF.

As best I can figure we plan on using him the way we did Boris Diaw back in 2005-2006. Too bad we don't have a Marion or a Kurt Thomas around him to actually grab a rebound.

There's another thread already discussing the trade.
