Yes he is. Judging by the interest for his services coming out of the media outlet, he's going to be a guy who will get more than people expect. Probably more than some of the figures that's been tossed around in these forums the past couple of days.

One more note on Evan Turner: the Pelicans are among the teams who have strong interest in him, sources say.

TBW article about potential turner fit

He'd give efficient ball movement/versatility and peremiter defense

Would have to get a 2nd SF that can shoot

I don't see why his shooting can't improve as he ages, ala Trevor Ariza

I like a Turner/Dudley combo if you can dump Reke

Those two can finish games with AD-Buddy-Jrue

Would have 3 creators and 4 shooters in that lineup. Can switch a lot on D and your rebounding would be passable.

Sorry for the accidental down vote but yeah I totally could get down with that.

Turner has really matured as a player and knows what to do. You'd have a big time basketball IQ increase with dudley/ET

Man dumping tyreke and signing those 2+maybe Nicholson would be a quality off season.

Whoops I accidentally downvoted you too, but I like the idea of that high octane offense.

J/k. I don't mind the idea. Actually really like it from a few angles.

I still like the idea of just getting a bunch of hungry guys better, but of all the vet options, I could get behind this one the most. Add a healthy Quincy and I really like our 2-4 positions. If we get a solid backup 1 or Frazier wasn't a fluke, I like the 1 too

People are so enamored with Dudley and I don't understand it. We will have offense, we need D. He plays no D and he's a decent 3 point shooter but that's it. If yall want Ryan Anderson without the Euro step jumper or nonsense turnaround jumpers, be my guest, but we need to stop or at least offer resistance to Lebron, Melo, Durant's. Dudley ain't that dude. I hope he is not an option. For all that, just resign Anderson, who I don't want anymore. Stay away from defensive liabilities. Only way sound defense can be played is no weak links or not having to implement a defense to cover weaknesses of a certain player.

Update: Pels have been basically told they have no shot at Batum. No word on Parsons

I've been saying that for a while now. We can't afford Batum's Max and we fired his good friend Monty Williams. Was never a legit possibility IMO.

i'll just assume we have no shot at everybody unless otherwise confirmed.
