Yes your comment is very logical. However, when it comes to the national team, it is all about country pride and emotions. After all Parker and Nowitzki had been very committed to both their NBA and national teams.
Plus, if you have some 70 million people from you own country hating you, there...
If we are going to hire a Euro coach, why not obradovic. He won 9 euroleague titles. Below is a press conference in 2009 after his team Panathinaikos won a euroleague game by just 22 points.

Joined when memo signed. I visit the forum amost every day to check what is going on. Over the years I enjoyed learning a lot about Jazz history, Sloan, malone, stockton etc. I was happy when the Jazz drafted another Turkish player. However I now think that I would probably stay around to...
All I am trying to say is that he did not show any loyalty to Fenerbahce and to the national team. So, I see no reason why he will be loyal to the Jazz organization when the time comes. Of course, you can argue reasons why there is no need for him to be loyal to FB and NT.
BTW, Fenerbahce is...
11 pages of tanjevic discussion. You cant even find this in turkish forums. He is not the best coach in europe but one of the respected ones. He might be a mixture of Sloan and Larry Brown. He probably saw many young European players who come to the NBA and could not live up to the expectations...
The way I see it, ( as a fenerbahce fan) he betrayed the team that invested in him for several years and let him play in a Euroleague game at the age of 16. In my view, if he did not lose couple of years in US and had played in Euroleague, he would have been much better player at the moment. Of...
Most of the Turkish NBA players will not be with the team this summer. This would give Enes more chance to be on the court and become a focal point of the offense. He has been working on his game at the gym for several years. It is time for him to have some real game experience.
He will sadly...
According to the article, he promised national team executives to join the team after the summer league. However, no one could reach him for several days. Finally his agent called the team manager to inform him that Enes will not join. It is also mentioned that Jazz management is notagainst his...
I think timing is also important. If the jazz had not traded DWill last year, ad if bothe CP3 and Dwill were on the trade market at the same time, probably, both teams would have to agree a lower quality deals due to the competition.
Just a nice gesture from Besiktas, probably overenthusiastic... During his time in Turkey Dwill showed that he cared the games and did his best to help his team win games. Frankly speaking, many players coming from NBA to Europe does not have such mentaility
Well, wrestling had been one of the top sports during the Ottoman Empire time, and I do not think there were weight categories at that time. So if you eat 40 bakeries of bread, you might have chance to become a top wrestler ( if we were in 16th century, of course)
Ilyasova ( PF), and Oguz Savas (C) are currently healthy bigs which has been a part of last year's team.
Omer Asik (C) is reported as healthy enough to practice with the team- just not cleared for the recent tournament.
Semih Erden ( C/PF) had two operations and seems like he is reluctant to...
