    I'm grateful for this guy. For his hard work, his skill, and especially his creativity. Always developing his game. Always creating opportunities for teammates. Always making everyone around him better. And always full of surprises.

    Nothing makes me happier than watching somebody try to guard him and knowing that the poor sap has no idea what Alpi will do next, because I have no idea myself.

    (nor does Alpi)

    I am most grateful for his effort. He, and everyone Ime plays, efforts. Relentlessly.

    Be relentless on your turkey, young fella!

    You know in Türkiye they call turkeys, Hindi’s! Essentially they are so pissed off that they’re associated with the bird that they tried to regift the name to India. :)

    I’m glad we have a holiday named after him. It roughly translates to Happy Al-Pee day in Turkish.

    A quick Thanksgiving guide:
    First, sit down, have some Turkiye
    Need a balanced diet? Pass the Green's
    Still hungry? Get a big helping of mashed potatoes Witmore gravy
    Lonely? Surround yourself with relatives. They may not be the core family, but they are always there to support you through rain, Vleet or snow, willing to trek across forests, Brooks and hills.
    But that one annoying uncle with horrible political views? Uninvite him, and if he tries to come anyway, call the LockSmith.
    Sad after the Holiday is over? Another one is coming, celebrating the day of a poor Sheppard boy. He looks lost and lonely, but there is something special in him.
    Finally, thank God for such a great year. It sounds strange to pray aloud, but Ime be listening.
    Amen!
    (and Tari ;))

    A wonderful holiday to remember and we are lucky to have Turkey's best basketball player ever on our team.

    GO ROCKETS, Go ALPI !

    Hold up now! Mirsad Türkcan would like a word. I still remember the disappointment of that draft. I guess Rudy T and CD walked so Stone could run.
