    Wednesday night Evan Turner scored a career high 26 points in a win over the Celtic. Do you guys think that this was a one time thing, or that we will see this on a consistent basis?

    I thought he was going to be an All Star his rookie season. He was a beast in 2k11.

    You really are the new guy. But no, he will not average 26 points per game all of a sudden for the rest of the season.

    Yeah I know Evan Turner was a highly regarded player though out of college so its kind of nice to see him for once not struggle in a game

    I was at this game watching it live.

    It was interesting. Dude has amazing handles and can get space against anyone. He was completely breaking the defense down. He also gets a lot of rebounds and goes on the break.

    He doesn't really finish consistently. I do think the Rockets should go after him though.

    I also got to see Evan Turner live when the 76ers played the Timberwolves in Minneapolis, the guy can ball he's going to be a good player

    It depends. If we trade for him, it'll be a one time thing. If we don't, it'll be the norm.

    His ceiling = Iguodala with better rebounding and less flashy dunks

    Well that would be pretty good.

    He's a long way to go from that.

    he's probably still figuring it out but he could pan out to be a star still

    Not really. Their per 36 minutes stats:

    Iggy: 12.8 PTS, 5.4 AST, 6.4 RB, .443 FG%
    Turner: 11.6 PTS, 3.9 AST, 8.5 RB, .408 FG%

    He has to improve his scoring efficiency but that will come with practice. He's already a very good defender like Iggy.

    Some of you are missing why the noob posted this up, in the garm a thread called"insiders something something" has a rumor that Turner might get traded to Houston for Martin.

    I might do it... if we also get Spencer Hawes. They can even have Hill because I'm generous :cool:

    Turner is a good defender with potential to be great player. I am all for bringing him in. Just remember that Iguodala might be the best defensive wing in the entire league. Evan would still have a ways to go with that in mind.

    The newest rumor is Kevin Martin and Jordan Hill for Evan Turner, Craig Brackins and Andres Nocioni.

    Seems like he rebounds well for his position. Haven't actually seen him play. Are his handles actually good? Or are we talking another Ariza-type G/F.
