lulz...Hedo's playing so bad, even his wife is reconsidering her contractual obligations to him

Makes no sense-- it is not like there was a huge Turkish population in San Antonio or Orlando.

boy how quickly this franchise turned downhill. Even the wives want out....

Insert anti-feminist comment here.

This is why society is as screwed up as it is. If you make more than twice the amount of money she does, then you get the final say in where your family goes. I think she's unhappy with the Turkish community in Toronto because the only "foreign" racial group that has a huge chunk of very rich people is probably the Italians in Woodbridge and maybe the multiracial Asian community in Markham. Folks just don't stack chips like that in Canada. She's a socialite and wanted to have her cake and eat it, too.

If they were Irish or German or something and moved to Burlington or Ancaster, she'd be having a blast because that blood runs through the entire country and those rich cities can support that kind of lifestyle. But Turks? That community isn't established to the point where her likely ridiculous lifestyle doesn't get insulted by the 'real' wives leading normal lives.

This makes me happy though. BC is getting embarrassed on a daily basis. We just need to get photos of Maurizio coming out of a rub and tug and the full circle will be complete.

what source is this from? its pointless

zoo wrote:2006 census has 14,970 people who identify themselves as Turkish living in TO. From wikipedia, but I don't feel like doing more research. That's a community my friend, they don't have to be neighbours.

Spin the numbers differently. The Turkoglu's are being paid $3070 for every Turkish person in Toronto.

Edit... oh Hedo is on a 53 million dollar deal, not 46. Slight misunderstanding. That puts the new $/Turkish person value at : $3540.

You wouldn't like the city either if your husband spent what seems like every night out at some club downtown. Seriously, you're more likely to see an empty TTC subway car at rush hour than you are Hedo NOT in some club after midnight.

Ugh. The prospects for this team are so dismal...

this thread is again pointless.....they chose Toronto over Portland because of 3mill and a direct flight to Turkey from pearson. That Turkish community business was overblown to begin with. Blame the news media here in Toronto going on about how he chose this city. I'm sure it was barely a discussion.

Hedo and his wife travelled to Toronto for years, they knew what they were getting in Toronto. Infact prior to even signing here they expressed how they liked it here many times. I highly doubt Hedo's wife is just figuring out what Toronto is about....

I think the article is bogus

Methinks scott had some beers last night, and probably has a few pangs of regret this morning.

Why not lock the thread so that he doesn't get fired? I'd like to think he's a friend of this board (i certainly like his stuff)

Last thing he needs is feschuk or smith or someone else who reads these boards bringing it to greater attention.

This thread is pointless.. I like how everyone is discussing Turkofluke's personal life like all of you know whats going on... "a friend of a friend of a friend reported to a newspaper editors brother-in-law that Banu is unhappy because of Turkish population issues". You clowns sound ridiculous. Who cares? he's getting paid and hes not going anywhere... and unless she divorces him, neither is she. What is there to discuss here?

She Should of gone to portland... Besides I hear they love the Ducks

What's with so many whiney wives in the NBA.

As if she would have found a large Turkish enclave in Portland. That is why this claim is bogus.

what a mess

She's going to convince Turk to void his contract and sign with a team in the Turkish league.

Turkeyglue to Golden State for Mafrickengette.

There is no source. This is bull until there is one.

It's just a random bull topic started by some random person on RealGM. Raptor fans are hilarious.

I feel horrible for her.

Her lifestyle must be such a burden.

Scott is a pretty reliable source.
