                    Ball was on today 20 points in 25 minutes 4 rebounds and 3 assists to lead Turkey to a Turkey walk (couldn't resist) over the French pastries.

                    Let them eat pastry

                      Hedo Turkoglu is all business in Turkey

                      Mike Ganter of the Toronto Sun reports:

                      Hedo Turkoglu did all his talking on the floor Sunday night.

                      Hedo Turkoglu is all business in Turkey

                      Had he taken that approach in his season in Toronto not to mention an off-season spent slagging the organization that brought him there, Turkoglu might still have a few fans left in Canada.

                      As it is, he’s probably not missing any of you.

                      Not when he’s the biggest sporting entity in his home country of Turkey. That spot of honour was only further solidified after leading the Turkish team into the quarter finals of the FIBA world championship with a 20-point evening that included going 4-of-7 from three point range as Turkey demolished France 95-77.

                      This was not the Turkoglu Torontonians witnessed. The goofy smiles and clowning around with opponents that marked his time in Toronto was replaced by a game-faced Turkoglu ready to do what needed to be done.
