Not yet. I don't even think it's a foregone conclusion Turner would start at the 3 if he did to be honest. Collins and Turner hate each other enough I wouldn't be surprised at all if Turner is traded either. Especially with Collins being given an even bigger say on the roster when he signed an extension.

if i was collins and i could get good return i'd trade turner also...if you can get a top pick in this draft i'd trade him...but i think his value with his play especially against boston has taken a big hit...it should have
 
i like the beal kid from florida with a top 5 pick...great 2 guard length great range and form on his jumper...that has the look of the next ray alllen like nba 2 guard scorer to me...gonna have to learn to play off screens and on the defensive end but i think his pro future is very promising

if you can somehow get them to pony up the #5 for turner...pull the damn trigger...this draft is much better than many in the past

As I've looked more and more at the draft the past few days, I really noticed something. Besides Davis, this draft has so many athletes that can help at a multitude of positions.

We definitely need to be interested, but I wonder why a team like the Kings would be shopping that pick? They could use some help that the 5th pick could provide.

probably looking for some established veteran leadership...they could use it...hell if you're boston you might trade pierce for the #5...

I'd do it in a heartbeat, but it looks like the Kings are looking for a vet so it would surely cost Iguodala. And i'd do that as well.

if iggys your #3 bpa i think you're cooking with gas...anything more than that and i don't think he can take you where you want to go...be careful though cause if he goes your d takes a major drop...at least to me it does...

There's no doubt the D would take a hit. Iggy guards the best scorer on the other team and usually shuts them down or at least contains them. Just look at their series against the Celtics. Iggy did a solid job on Pierce the whole series, with the exception of one game.

to my eye he was the only guy tha could actually shut down a legit player with his d...everyone else looked like a lot of exchanging baskets to me...problem though with iggy is he doesn't provide enough scoring punch...i do think though that i underrated the way he sees the floor and gets guys involved but imo he does that to a fault...too passive at times on that end of the floor

His D is very good, but he's not consistent on the scoring end of things. He is a great all around player who plays great defense, us a good passer, and he's another threat to handle the ball when needed. I can appreciate all that he brings to the table, but here in Philly all they focus on is how many points he's scoring a night.

Defense is a lot easier to find than a go to scorer though. Turner is perfectly capable of doing the passing, rebounding, and scoring Iggy provides. And then if you get Kidd-Gilchrist with the 5th pick, that guy is already a big time defender, and has huge potential in that area, so it balances itself out. To be honest, he actually reminds me a lot of Iguodala and Gerald Wallace. Both of those guys were 20 ppg scorers at one point with no jumper, and I certainly think MKG can do it as well, on top of being a great all around player. If he ever gets that jumper more consistent though, watch out. If not him, I think Drummond balances out our defense as well having a true enforcer in the paint instead of Spencer Hawes.

It may be true but is there a single goto scorer in this draft? Beal or Lamb or Rivers may have an outside shot at one day becoming one. Unless you still think Turner is that guy.......I though the ship had sailed on that one.
