Yeah because the first 10 games of your rookie season determine how ones career is going to end up.

It's too early to judge Turner's career, but it's certainly not too early to compare him to the guys drafted around him. And yes, some were saying Turner should go #1. If I remember correctly, I think Bilas was one of the ESPN guys really high on Turner.

So, at this point, it's fair to say that Wall will be the much better pro. Not a knock on Turner, it's just reality.

For all we know, Turner could still be the better draftee. Still way too early to tell.

No it's not. Within 10 games you might not see the consistency that you want, but you will see flashes of what someone is capable of. Wall is capable of being a top PG in the NBA and a game changer. He just plays at a different pace than most others.

Wall is averaging 18 ppg and 10 apg, along with 4 rpg. He has superstar written all over him.

It wasnt a lot, but it was some OSU fans on the College Basketball board. Certainly not a lot, but some.

Plenty of people have started their careers off slow, then blossomed into an all-star. At the same time, plenty of players have started off amazing, then slowed down (probably due to the league adjusting to their style) I'm not saying either of those situations will happen, but I still say it's too early to tell. It's been 10 damn games.

Just saying it's not definite.

Wall is playing 39 mins a game and Turner is playing for a Coach who doesn't like to play rookies too much so he is getting 29 mins a game.
Wall is playing the same position he played last year while Turner is having to learn a different role/position this year. It's way too early to make any logical judgements right now.

Azubuike24

Turner isn't learning a new role/position for Philly. He's playing a new role/position because he doesn't have a specific position. If he was a stud PG like Wall he would be the starting PG, especially on Philly. He isn't and he won't ever be. That's why he wasn't worthy of being drafted where he was. You go #2 and you are expected to be a stud.

SportsAndLady

You guys are acting like he is in the D league or something...for christ sake he had 16 points last night in the starting lineup.

Watching the heat for the first time this season, Where's the Def? Granted its against the Suns, a very good off. team but still! This is ridiculous. They play like this, doubt they get out of the 1st round.

Windy was interviewed on WKNR today and he says that Lebron and Wade are having problems coexisting already. He didn't get into it much, but he said that he sees some possible major problems down the road. He was pretty rough on the Heat saying pretty much that Bosh is being exposed as not a top tier guy and more of an upper level role player. It was interesting to hear to say the least.

Danny Green signed with the Spurs today.

I really wonder what he did to get released by the Cavs. I was hoping that he would get a shot. Well, no matter what....the Spurs will have an excellent dance and pregame ritual now.

wildcats20

Yeah, I'm not sure. Maybe Byron just didn't like his dancing?

no way....everyone loves his youtube videos.

karen lotz

Is Danny Green married? If so, someone better warn him about the team's starting PG.

wildcats20

I doubt it, but his dad has been in prison. So I'm sure no one will fuck around with Danny...

lol

If everyone would direct their attention to ESPN, the Miami Heat are in the midst of blowing another lead.

karen lotz

Its the NBA, everyone makes a run. Miami's 21 has been cut all the way to 19. Chris Bosh is not missing tonight. Good call though ffl.
