Turn and Burn 

A spin move in basketball.
You catch the ball in the key, discontinue your dribble, spin (to the right only) with your feet twisted and body weight slightly off-balance, and shoot a flat-arcing shot.

Often followed up with a Lyeton Hewitt "Come'on!" hand signal.

Made famous by Birdie.

"Birdie catches the ball in the post, spins and scores on the Turn and Burn"

"Give it to Lee so can he Turn and Burn him"

In the world of resale, the practice of reselling an item very quick for little to no profit (or sometimes at a loss), usually in as-is condition or with no work put into the item. Can also describe what someone does when they sell you a suspect item on the street, Craigslist, etc... (like a stolen phone or fake drugs) and then try to get the hell out of there before you figure it out.

Billy: This car we got at auction is going to need major engine work soon!
Bob: Don't worry, we will just turn and burn. It'll be the next guy's problem.

Billy: That 'weed guy' just sold me a bag of oregano and when I found out, he already took off running! I'm out fifty bucks!
Bob: That sucks man. He just did a turn and burn on you!

A management practice that uses middle managers as scapegoats to perpetuate existing conditions. In situations where senior management and workers are invested in retaining current practices and customs a middle manager will be tasked to "Cean things up". However, the manager will meet passive aggression and mobbing from both superiors and subordinates that socially isolates and frustrates all but the most basic changes. After the middle manager is "Burned Out" and frustrated after a period of time, the manager will either quit or be fired for ineffectivness. In this way the status quo is maintained and blame can be assinged to the middle manager for failure. A new middle manager will be hired and the cycle will repeat itself. This is the turning phase

"Don't go to work at that hospital-not even Jesus himself could fix that place. It's strictly burn and turn".
