Myles Turner: The gamble, the future, the talent 

Post#1 » by Grang33r » Sat Feb 20, 2016 8:16 pm

Great article by Candace Buckner of the Indy Star on Myles Turner. Must read!

In the big picture, Myles Turner is the future his franchise is counting on, the gamble his coach is taking, the nearly 7-foot tower of energy his opponents are encountering.

Today, though, he’s just a distracted teenager playing with his iPhone. Turner settles into a small corner table of his favorite Italian restaurant for dinner and sits spread-eagled, his knees almost touching opposite corners of the tabletop as he jumps into the hook of an R&B ballad. The Weeknd’s “Earned It,” a Grammy-award winning song, plays in the background. And Turner doesn’t miss a beat.

“‘Cause girl you’re perfect,” Turner croons softly while thumbing through text messages.
