Hedo Turkoglu
16 June 2009
In these situations you'd have to expect a Rashard Lewis or Hedo Turkoglu to get the final shot, right? Granted, neither has built an overwhelming "last-shot resume" but you have to go with what you've got. Courtney Lee? Really?

an Garnett for this award.
Speaking of no-brainers, the NBA's most improved player this season is Hedo Turkoglu of the Orlando Magic. Not even my home town bias will allow me to make the case for Rajon Rondo (though he's definitely made great strides this season with and surpassed every expectation of him). Hedo is Orlando's best passer and playmaker, and he's playing with confidence and passion like never before. The Magic wouldn't be anywhere near where they are right now if Turkoglu hadn't been playing so well all year, and he's elevated his own personal statistics in an equally impressive fashion.

esents some tough match-ups for the Celtics, with Dwight Howard in the middle and Rashard Lewis and Hedo Turkoglu on the perimeter. While none of the Orlando players present as difficult a cover as LeBron James (Howard is close, but his game is not as diverse as LeBron's, nor does he have the same combination of speed and strength that makes James almost impossible to contain), the Magic have three legitimate scoring options that are capable of sinking any opponent on any night.
