2010 FBA Draft Prospect - Serhan Tevetoğlu
sketch 30/100
Another one of my players, Serhi Tevetoğlu, aka "Turkish Delight" (Damn, I just thought of that... that's good!)
He can shoot lights out on any given night, and is one of the top 20 PPG scorers in European history at age 18! He's played professionally since the age of 14 and has received glowing comparisons to John Stoat in terms of scoring and shooting prowess, especially from deep.
Only trouble is, that's about all he can do! He can't defend, block or rebound, and at 7'1", he's only 190 lbs! He definitely needs to bulk up to hold his own in the FBA! The Lorain Firestorm drafted him, and they'll be putting him at SF so he doesn't get abused down low as much. They can use him as instant offense until they can add some muscle to his scrawny frame.
4 more to go! ^^

Serhi Tevetoğlu is one unique player. He has been playing in Euro Furry Basketball Leagues professionally since the age of 14, and he is going to turn 18 about a month before the draft. Yet even at such a young age, he is a 4 year pro overseas and he carries himself as if he were much older, giving him a level of experience few players at his age can relate to.
Coerced into playing basketball at an early age due to being so tall for his age and having a basketball crazy father (who coached college ball in Turkey), he is a natural born scorer who has been putting balls in hoops since he could walk. He does so effortlessly today, as he has one of the smoothest, silkiest jumpshots for a big, or for anybody, in recent memory in Europe. His stroke has even brought up comparisons to a young, tall John Stoat, as has his silky white coat. Though unlike Stoat, he has one amber eye and one blue eye (no offense to the reigning FBA MVP. Get well soon, John.)
To make him an even more astonishing player, he was among the Top 10 in scoring in the Euros since he was 15 and has the 2nd highest point average in this year's draft, and the fact is that he has much room to develop. For starters, he needs to get his furry butt into the weight room stat, since he is a F/C due to height alone. He couldn't stop a flower from scoring in the post, he's so rail thin. But he can bother most SF's with his length, and can certainly shoot over any of them with ease. A clever coach would play him at PF on offense to spread the floor, but keep him out of the paint on defense if at all possible.
Serhi is a very heavy risk/reward player. Adding him to any roster instantly increases their offensive potency and spreads the floor, creating instant mismatches. However, he is equally bad on the defensive end, and his team must be prepared to constantly help him out there. Truthfully, he would be a much better pick if he had any defensive abilities (aside from the occasional blocked shot). His rebounding at his height leaves a lot to be desired as well, but one can only hope that adding (lots of) muscle will help him there. He's still very young, so there is plenty of time to bulk up, which he'll certainly be made to do.
With limitless range, a mind molded for scoring from all angles, and with youth and experience on his side (a rare combination), Tevetoğlu will blossom under a good coach and good veteran guidance. Just put some muscle on those bones before you send him into the post to guard a PF. And someone please teach him how to grab a rebound, please.

Yeah, I know all about Turkish Angoras, Van and Persians. I had a mix of Persian and Angoras = Persian Angoras...it's like, so they don't have that really flat nose that persians have while maintaining that ohgawdamazing fur, and also brings with it the Turkish Angora's proud look.
His rebounding has nowhere to go but up. Also, his passive play style when it comes to rebounding and defense has got to change. It's not all physical things he needs to get used to, but mental as well.
At least on the Firestorm, he's in a position more suited for his style, regardless of height, and it's a good team without him, so he'll be able to take his time getting ready and adjusting to the league.

I really should go and read all these player info blurbs. They're extremely well-thought out, and as analyzing various metagames is my specialty (betcha didn't know that!), I find them extremely intriguing, especially because I wasn't aware (though on second thought it is pretty much common sense) that basketball, or any other sport, had this angle to it. I've always taken sports at face value simply because you don't get this kind of information watching it on TV or going to games.
There's definitely something to be said for the metagame here, that is, the game above the game, where you're looking at players based on what you know of them outside their position.
Thanks a lot, JT >:C Now you've got me all interested and stuff (GOSH how could you do that), and I could type pages and pages about this. But I won't. We need to talk. :3
