Can anyone provide an analysis of former import of Besiktas ColaTurka Rodney Elliot?

Also, could someone translate these statements:

Just a quick translation Saski. I can write more about him, but I totally agree with the second comment;

The last transaction of Besiktas ColaTurka. Rodney, who is an US citizen, came from the Spanish team, Fuenlabrada. He (29 y.o, forward, 2.04) averaged 8.5 points and 6 rebounds last season.

I thought Besiktas would sign Chris Williams for this position, but I guess they couldn't agree on terms. I hope he'll be useful, but I think the main signing will be for the center position.

The foreign player that helped very little Besiktas this year. Coach considered to replace him in the middle of the season, but he managed to stay by his good performance at that period. However, he didn't contribute anything to the team after that, both due to his injury and his bad physical shape. His perimeter shots are good for his height, but this is his only ramarkable trait. There are many other players doing this, better than him. He's certainly not the foreigh player for a team aiming the championship (top places).

Yet, putting its hands on former Montepaschi-Biella player Jamel Thomas is a good improvement for Murat Didin's team, which generally speaking brought very good f's considering its capabilities (a euroleague player like Sales who did great in Italy, Ostojic who was solid in Europe's currently top league and Reese who was excellent in TBL last season and had a short spell at Haifa not long ago)...they're for sure better in that aspect than last season (though it's a pity to lose Tunceri).

Thanks buddy, I'll be looking forward to your evaluation of my team's new import. Cheers.
