LOL. There weren't that many c+ or lower grades to begin with, but most have disappeared (I was specifically watching c+ and lower - there were a total of no more than 10-12 as of game time).

Two things: One, I'd like to see The Big Nurk improve his conditioning.

Two, I'd like to see some muscle.

I've seen the Sabas comps thrown out. Sabas was more athletic at that age. So yeah, he's a young dude moving like an old Sabas. His lift on that deep shot was like watching Sabas, or even a right-handed Sam Perkins with that deep, slow draw, and getting about 3 inches off the ground.

He did kind of have that Z-bo lift lol.

Lol. It seems a bunch of people changed their vote in the poll. I did too....

I didn't even know you could change your vote.
I voted before the game, my vote was a C. Simply because I wanted someone else.
Won't change my opinion until I see more games of Nurk.

Kind of need to know how the the 1st round pick turns out as well.

I said B. I think with the 1st round pick it's above average - 2 years from now we can re-evaluate - but this is a good haul for someone we weren't going to re-sign.

Well that was easy

 

[riverman]

I gave it an A before the game....trust your instincts!

 

[BlayZa]

Yep. I LOVE that it was MEYERS who played garbage time. Nurkic is already being treated by Stotts as one of our stars.

he's playing in his element in those scenarios

garbage gets garbage time
