Evan Turner on Korver: "I got a foul on Korver, they said I pushed him and tripped him and he just fell. He can't guard to save his life."

Turner cont: "He's grabbing Marcus Thornton and he's grabbing me and he has no business being in the game on the defensive end." #celtics

Turner cont: "What can you possibly do if they're allowed to have their hands on him? Once again, we just have to play through it." #celtics

Hmm ok, we're going to talk about someone else's defense after getting smoked from being up 23 points..ok that makes sense.

Turner's been said to complain about calls a lot.

He's that guy.

I like new-Turner though.

Korver was guarding Rondo in the 4th because Rondo is useless in the 4th quarter. Rondo can not shoot jumpers or at the line so you can put a chair out there to guard him. Worth a max contract? If you think so, you are an idiot.

I thought Turner talked about himself. Just complete it with boneheaded plays at the worst time.

Ray Allen was guarded with grabbing and bumping, somehow he's managed to be a future HOF.

I hope Stevens put him in his place. (I doubt it.)

Embarrassing meltdown after meltdown...

hell, i think someone could start a thread about aliens invading boston and somebody here would find a way to lay on rondo's lack of free throw shooting.

It literally never ends.  It is amazing.  There are a 1/2 dozen that just make it their fanatical mission to connect the dots between anything wrong anywhere and Rondo.  I mean you would think you would get tired of bashing him and move onto others, but nope.

Back to the thread...  I think until Turner starts making a significant contribution to the team, it would probably be best not to bash other players.  I mean Korver was 6-7 from 3.  Did Turner do anything on Def to help the team stop that?  It just makes him sound immature.

For what it's worth, I'd have to agree with Turner - Ashton Kutcher can't guard an empty bank with a loaded shotgun (or whatever that exact phrase is.  I did see it somewhere lol.) ;D.  He is VERY PRETTY, tho (sarcasm) ;D.

Why didn't we attack Korver on offense?

Doc used to do that, and it always worked.

Korver can't cover anybody.

Is Turner any better on defense than Korver? Not by much from what I see

I think Turner is okay, but I have absolutely no clue as to why Stevens routinely assigns him to guard the opposition's point guard.  That is just, wow :o.

Turner needs to take a real close look at the mirror, because Korver is a good defender who is leagues ahead of Turner on both ends of the floor. I was hoping Evan Turner signing in Boston would help raise my perception of him, but I dislike him even more now.
