We Turks tend to overrate or better to say overvalue the average talents who are better off than their mediocre peers on the court.
The truth is that all Turkish basketball education is a disaster. No individual development coaches, we still use old-fashioned basketball methods to train kids (even the coaching books that are certified by the federation belong to 90s), many of the player candidates don't have the basic basketball fundamental or they are good at just one aspect of the game. That's why we have good shooters who can't dribble or pass or defend & good defenders who can't do shit in offense. You can't compete with above-average teams with one-sided players.
According to the guy above, once upon a time Barış Özcan, Barış Hersek, Şafak Edge, Barış Ermiş were the star candidate. They are all disappeared at the highest level of basketball.
Get a life. See the reality. Stop getting hard-ons on so-called prospects who will never satisfy your expectations. Between '98-'06 generation there are only 3 guys who have the potential of being able to difference-makers on NT level.
