Mike, St.Louis: Hedo, we know that you are Turkish native but you are also speak same language that Vlade and Peja are speaking. As i know, Turkish and Serbian doesn't have anything in common. Can you explain that?
Hedo Turkoglu: I'm born in Turkey but my parents are from Yugoslavia. They moved to Turkey when they were young. When I was young they spoke Yugoslavian, so I learned from them.
Yugoslavian is actually Serbian/Croatian. He is indeed from Serbia (Novi Pazar city)
Mirsad Turkcan also moved from Serbia to Turkey, his real name is Mirsad Jahovic, his sister is a famous singer in Serbia she almost represented Serbia at the Eurosong contest this year (runner up).
Not sure about Onan...

The big difference is that Yugos were the same people, speaking the same language(i mean language not dialect) and they were one country not through colonization.Only difference was religion.
No comparison to the exploiting relation of Spanyards with their colonies.
Also i doubt that Russians are the same people with Lithuanians, even though i would be more than happy to see them again reunited( i am not sure if both of them want to).
Greeks and Turks of course are not the same people.
In ex-USSR only Russians and Lithuanians would provide quality players to NT.
In ex-Yug almost every part was an important basketball community.

Even if he was from Panama, he's playing under our flag and for our country, and that's what matters... But we don't have to get into that, because he's a Turk.. :-)
+ We're cruising right now baby, I have no reason to be hurt at all, LMAO

About our "overrated team", well we wiped a flour two time in a row with yours over hyped team one month ago in Istanbul, and I think that we will do it again if we met in the SF.

I was using smileys and shit, I was just telling it in a nice manner..
And that's just an exhibition game, says nothing to me.. We lost like four of our eight prep games... I'd like to see y'all do it this tournament
EDIT: We even lost 6 of 10... Exhibition games say very little..THE NBA IS FAKE
