Do Work Stan .... BOOYAAKASHAA 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2009 I hate to see the catfish leave town however I would not trust signing him to a 5 year deal. I think Turk has a less than average work ethic and as he gets a little bit older I think this will take more of a toll on his game and his production. Lets not forget that Turk was missing quite a few games the year before last for tick tack injuries and some unknown illness that would reappear after a long night out on the town (hangover). No but seriously, I question Turks commitment to the game and although he is and has been a great player for Orlando I really think once he cashes in on the big pay day there is a chance he could begin to shut it down.

Hank Moody 60 Report post Posted July 8, 2009 Well he probly will play better and here is my theory: He has just made his wife happy. Now she can have her posh downtown Toronto condo and spread her legs for Turk on a weekly basis instead of only when he hit game winners playing for us. Thus making Turk more loose and clearing his mind, resulting in better shot selection and half the amount of cross court passes to fans. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly why it was such a good move to get VC and not be forced to pay Hedo 10 mill plus for the next 5 years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skywise316 211 Report post Posted July 8, 2009 Forget Turkaflu. Think Turkapolio. His craftiness'll get him through, and he'll play big in spots, but I see his stamina falling off the table. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hank Moody 60 Report post Posted July 8, 2009 In all seriousness I think when Turks career is done when people look back at it, his years with Orlando will be best known. And he people who know basketball will always associate him with Orlando. Does anyone bring up Jordan when he played for Washington? Does anyone bring up Shaq when he played for Clev... Oh wait nevermind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Darth Evil Dead 0 Report post Posted July 8, 2009 In 5 years he will be 35 years old and be in the Keith Van Horn/ Wally Z part of his carrer when they were at the end of their big contracts. Players that are making 10 mil plus, can play any D, and playing about 10 to 15 minutes a game. He will then be in many trade rumors as an expiring contract cash dump. In 4 years Lewis and Carters (in two years I know) will be off the books..and the Magic will be a big player in free agency to find another Max Free Agent to join up with Dwight, Meer, and Anderson.
