Is Hedo Turkoglu the Michael Jordan of Turkey?

edthesportsfan.com — Chris Webber calls him “The Michael Jordan of Turkey,” which in itself is pure hilarity, because anything, or anyone, being compared to Jordan in any field will get anyone’s attention, but after you look past his words, you see how nice and complete Hedo’s game is, how far he’s come along, and why he’s the most important player on this Orlando team

  • inactive, on 06/03/2009, -4/+17he's definitely not the brad pitt
  • jamaph, on 06/04/2009, -3/+14Turkoglu is an awesome player and having him on the magic is just one of the reasons why my team is going to championship!!!

    But critics and analysts love to give one player the glory of making or breaking a basketball team. It's everyone on the magic together that makes this team the future champions. Dwight, Lewis, Turkoglu et al.

    Go Magic!
  • RunDiggMC, on 06/03/2009, -4/+13Maybe, but that's like saying Sarah Palin is the Megan Fox of Alaska ... sort of.
  • joncannon, on 06/04/2009, -1/+10He's just butt hurt that the Cavs actually lost to the better team.
  • chicagojack, on 06/03/2009, -7/+16no
  • inactive, on 06/04/2009, -2/+11Buried for burying for Orlando Magic.
  • aoguzkoca, on 06/03/2009, -1/+8No, but we love Hedo's style ;). We have great players our BEKO league .
  • Contrarius, on 06/04/2009, -0/+5That's not very nice, Megan Fox isn't retarded
  • SomeDrunk, on 06/04/2009, -0/+5I was there with you until the part about future champions. Go Lakers!
  • diceau, on 06/04/2009, -0/+4Respect.
  • rwbrinso, on 06/03/2009, -4/+8Sure, why not? It's not an insult to MJ, it's an insult to Turkey.
  • zaferk, on 06/04/2009, -0/+3i bow to you
  • Spatan007, on 06/03/2009, -3/+5no
  • zaferk, on 06/04/2009, -0/+2But au contraire, she is
  • superlantern, on 06/04/2009, -1/+3Turk deserves some credit for helping get this team where they are, as long and he can remain consistent and also play good defense, then he will be a big factor in the finals.

    as for the jordan of turkey remark I thought it was just some trash talk he used once and it stuck.
  • Kannebas, on 06/04/2009, -0/+2With his height and improving passing and rebounding ability, he's more like Scottie Pippen, but without the defense...
  • merdiesel, on 06/04/2009, -0/+2That makes absolutely no sense but strangely I kind of get what you're saying.

    Theres only one MJ?..
  • joshmoney, on 06/04/2009, -0/+1I'm sure she mean "of" no where.
  • Jerky1312, on 06/04/2009, -0/+1This writer also compares him to Magic Johnson, which is a stretch, but it was a play on words, so not really a big deal, but still a very good read. Here is the article...

  • bobjrn2, on 06/04/2009, -0/+1GO TURKEY GLUE!!
  • sydouglas, on 06/04/2009, -0/+1"obligatory Armenian whining remark about some stupid ***** that went down 90 years ago"
  • thedway, on 06/04/2009, -0/+1This article has nothing to do with the question, except to mention that Webber called Hedo that. Plus it makes the uninformed error that Gasol will match up with Hedo.
    Gasol would never be matched up with Hedo. Think about it:

    Gasol - DHoward or Gortat
    Odom - Lewis or Battie
    Ariza or Walton - Hedo

    Pau usually plays the center position.
  • feomatteo88, on 06/03/2009, -4/+5i'll dig it for turkey glue
  • scarlettletter, on 06/03/2009, -8/+8No one's the Michael Jordan or no where!
  • sirchlight, on 06/04/2009, -0/+0I would tend to agree with this except in golf ... u don't think Tiger Woods is the MJ of that sport? C'mon I don't even like golf but I know this.
  • syklops67, on 07/08/2009, -0/+0of course hido is the most valuable player in turkey like michael jordan

  • darknecross, on 06/04/2009, -3/+1Chris Webber and Hedo Turkoglu.
    Makes me remember back when the Kings made the playoffs and I stopped watching basketball.
  • inactive, on 06/04/2009, -4/+0Why is Turkey the subject of conversation on Digg so often? Is it owned by Turks?

  • efreeman, on 06/03/2009, -9/+0I'm going to guess that the Michael Jordan of Turkey plays another sport.
