Probably because he's slow.

Maybe it's those little arms of his waving around??

If I were Jerryd I think I'd rather be called Rex

He's not calling him "a turtle", he's calling him "Turtle". Notice that Jerryd starts yelling "Wayne!" in return. That's GO's middle name.

Dude, you never saw the "Kite Man" commercials from PGE? Oh well. I guess it was a reach at best anyhow.

Yeah, I know. Just having fun.

Wayne, huh? We should start calling him Bruce. And if he ever reaches Dwight's level, we can call him Batman.

There's Oden's personality starting to show again!!

 

[Nate Dogg]

Maybe Oden is calling Bayless a "snapping turtle" , someone with a lot of aggressive attitude?

Entourage fans?

That's what I was wondering.

 

[Nikolokolus]

This is interesting from the perspective that so many people have speculated at times that Bayless is going to rub guys the wrong way with his hyper-competitive attitude, etc. I think it's somewhat clear that at least Greg thinks he's OK and probably gets along with him just fine.

 

[Tortimer]

I could tell from that video that Oden really does like Bayless. I do the think the "Turtle" nickname is probably from Entourage.

He seems to be the kind of guy you like when he's playing with you and you hate when he's playing against you.

call the kite man! for whatever reason I recall that Pacific Power commercial clearly, so I got the reference. But it needs a few tweaks to be right...

is a safe kite made of metal? -big announcer voice

cut to shot of kids shaking their heads no

wire or wet string? -big announcer voice

never! - kids collectively yelling

what about frogs? -big announcer voice

I like frogs! - lone kid's voice

What if your kite wiiiiiinds around a powerline? - big announcer voice

Call the kite man! - lots of kid's voices

At Pacific Power - big announcer voice

I think he kind of looks like that Art Instruction School turtle that they want you to draw and send in to see if you've the talent and interest to become a real artist.
