They do not teach pronouns at the Toronto Sun
Article about Turkeyglue's decision process. A quotation about him (not about "he") from that article:
"So, Turkoglu may forever be known as 'Hedon't' in Portland, as one national columnist penned, but how do you blame a guy for doing what he feels is in the best interests of he and his family"?

Hedo used portland...
He had no intention of signing with Portland. He used us to get the contract he wanted in Toronto. That said I hold nothing againts him, it was a smart move. Imagine what he would have been paid if it got out that his wife only wanted to go to Toronto?

He didn't use us
He simply has no stones. The spouse made the call, made easier by the extra $3-7M over 5 years. We all know that Toronto has no short-term championship prospects. We also know that KP working so hard the past 3 years to end up with Turkoglu is less than earth shattering. Go team.

Sounds like a skater to me.
He doesn’t want to work hard and compete for a title anymore so he goes to Toronto where he can enjoy himself more and take off on vacation in April. We absolutley dodged a bullet with this guy. The big knock on him is that he “disappears” for stretches. That’s just pure laziness for a 6’10" small forward with his considerable skill. No other reason for it.
(Unless, of course, he chose Toronto because he is looking forward to mentoring a new lottery pick every year!)

So much potential, so little fire.
