Evan Turner: Which Lottery Bound team would be the best fit for him?

[wiley]

Danny is going to trade some of my favorite Celtics for both Minny lottery picks, Rubio and Al Jefferson.  Evan Turner here we come

[PosImpos]

Golden State, New Jersey, or Minnesota. It would be really fun to see him on Golden State though.

Monta Ellis
Stephon Curry
Evan Turner
Anthony Randolph
Andris Biedrins

If they could trade Ellis and Maggette for more of a low post presence, and just have Curry and Morrow as the backcourt, that team would look really good.

God, I don't want to see Don Nelson ruin another potentially great young talent.  It's bad enough that he's poisoning Stephen Curry and burying Anthony Randolph.

I really want Evan Turner on the Celtics kid is a stud.

I'd like to see him go to the Nets.  I think it would help Devin Harris turn back into the player he was as it would give them another play maker.

I second this.

Kid was born to where Celtic green

We could say this about every good player, but it's not happening unfortunately.

I'd say Minnesota. Within two years they could have a starting 5 of
1-Rubio
2-Turner
3-Gomes/Brewer
4-Love
5-Jefferson

In my opinion in 2 or 3 years that is a 50+ win team.

What about Utah? I think they could use him, and he wouldn't be under a ton of pressure right away.

I don't want Utah to get him because I believe if he is on their team they become the team to beat.

Turner/Deron together would definitely be interesting to watch.

Utah would be perfect for him.  

I really think Turner is going to be the best player in the draft.  I'll admit, I have only seen a little bit of him and Wall (or any other college player, for that matter), but based on what I have seen, I am completely convinced that Turner will be better than Wall.  While Wall is a special athlete, and an exciting (if not polished) player, Turner is just a special player.  I really can't think of the last wing to come out of college who has the skillset and polish that Turner has.  Maybe Brandon Roy, but I think Turner is a better athlete.  

So really, any team with a need for a SG should be a good fit for him.  But put him on a team like Utah, that have such a strong cast around him, and he could really develop quickly.

I'd love to see Minnesota land him. They are desperate for a legitimate swingman.

Seeing him on Minnesota would be pretty interesting.  What would it be?

Flynn
Brewer
Turner
Jefferson
Love

Or something like that?  Pretty good core.

I would like to see them spin Jefferson for Deng this offseason, and then trade something like Brewer and the Bobcats or Jazz pick for Perkins. 

That gives them:

Flynn (and hopefully Rubio in a year or two)
Turner
Deng
Love
Perkins

That surrounds Turner with excellent roleplayers who can move the ball, play defense, and really play off Turner's strengths.
