Evan Turner's reaction to the NBA's latest big signing
Just before the season gets underway, most teams have made their moves to sign players.

After the Olympics, many speculated that the Nuggets would make a huge offer for their star player and finally, it was done. Some feel that the price tag is too steep but Evan Turner thinks the opposite. He feels that the guard is deserving of this opportunity.
