    It was good to see Evan Turner selected AP player of the year. I think he deserved it and had the best season of any player this year. While some freshman received a lot of attention this year, I think Turner could make the best pro player. He reminds me a lot of Brandon Roy in college. Wall is a special talent though and it will be tough for an NBA team to pass on him. Wall could become a Dwayne Wade type player someday and probably has more potential. Still, I won't be at all surprised if Turner has a better pro career when its all said and done.

    Turner hands down deserved POY honors this year. Dude beasted on a game by game basis.

    Toss up who will be better pro, I'd say both will be good=great but not go down in the record books or anything. Who knows.

    I think Turner's jump shot is lacking a little. It might hinder him at the next level.

    He deserved POY though.

    That has been said a lot about players at the college level. A few examples are Dwayne Wade, the beforementiond Brandon Roy, and most recently Tyreke Evans. I hear some of these NBA teams have decent shooting coaches. ;)
