Nurkic is a Blazer!!

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

From now on, I'm only referring to him as The Nurk.

I hope someday I'm able to say, "What bullshit--The Nurk should have won that MVP award."


"If it weren't for that shot from Dame!!!
I must say Min,....Lillard time looks to be back and more precise than a Rolex!!!!"
 
The only issue I have with this trade is that Plumlee was probably our best center since Sabas?.....and he has been 100% healthy.

I like Nurkic, though, and we get another 1st.

Nurkic is only 22. I think you are going to be pleasantly surprised and will come to see him as our best Center since Sabas.

Edit: IF THE BLAZERS HIRE A QUALITY BIG MAN COACH FOR F's SAKE!!!!!!

Needs to be Nerf, then when he plays good defense we can call him the Nerf Herder!
 
Cippy bro, Sorry man. It ain't no big thing, but it is accuracy and that kinda stuff is how incorrect info spreads and changes the facts through history. There is actually a huge difference between almost and did. no matter what the situation is. He almost committed murder. He DID commit murder.
The truth is all we really have to live by in this world of so many falsities being spread by media movements and individual ignorance.
Really? did you see my post where I post the fucking article and said I got it wrong? I remembered the article from way back, got it wrong then I looked the article back up and the guy almost spray painted the car so I corrected it. This is the problem with society man, couple people on this forum wanna keep it going and make a huge deal about this.

Take a Qualude, have a drink, take a bong hit, do whatever it takes to chill and try to see more than what you think you see.

I was merely reading up on the thread and posted as I read.
Take the words for what they are instead of an attack. trying to talk to you is like pounding one's head against a brick wall.

You also changed it only because someone else said something. And you got all bent out of shape then too.
Jesus man......
 
Ive moved on too. FYI. As soon as I hit send from the first post, and kept reading the thread.....
geez...lol

Then don't fucking talk to me, simple as that. You are always trying to start shit with me, it's annoying
 
Seems oddly specific for "the problem with society."
it is an issue, especially in liberal portland where everybody gets their panties in a bunch over the smallest shit. god forbid a plumlee article I got wrong and corrected. Wow biggest problem in life
 
Not a couple people, just one.

The post you responded to was 3 pages ago. Everyone else has moved on.

BNM
I am not on this all day. Just saw it. When somebody addresses me, I am gonna reply back
 
My post was at 2 pm and you responded at 5:30 so while it was dropped you picked it back up and said something because you wanna start shit with me.
"Don't post false information" LOL
okay. I posted an article about mason plumlee after somebody said I got it wrong confirming I indeed got it wrong but the guy almost did it. Once again my post about all that was at 2 pm and you didn't respond to me till 5:30 so you tell me who the fuck is keeping it going. It's just annoying that's all.

Do you perceive any irony with your statement here?
I'm not as mad as you think, you just think I am super mad because I said a couple of curse words. *edited* Think what you want of me, I don't care. OB has been doing this for a couple months now with me.

Putting this here since most don't seem to wander into the "sticky threads"

Updated calcs for where the Blazers will be next year (2017-18):
- Assumed CAP: $102,000,000
- Assumed Tax Level: $122,000,000

Damian Lillard, $26,153,057
CJ McCollum, $23,962,573
Allen Crabbe, $19,332,500
Evan Turner, $17,131,148
Meyers Leonard, $9,904,494
Al-Farouq Aminu, $7,319,035
Mo Harkless, $9,662,922
Festus Ezeli, $7,330,000 (non-guaranteed)
Ed Davis, $6,352, 531
Noah Vonleh, $3,505,233 (non-guaranteed)
Jusuf Nurkic, $2,947,305
Shabazz Napier, $2,361,360 (non-guaranteed)
Pat Connaughton, $1,471,382 (non-guaranteed)
Jake Layman, $1,312,611
Tim Quarterman, $1,312,611
1st Round Draft Choice (#13), $2,184,400
1st Round Draft Choice (#23), $1,371,000
1st Round Draft Choice (#28), $1,179,100
~ Anderson Varejao (waived-stretched), $1,984,005

Total Salaries: $148,464,746

With the tax level at $122,000,000, the Blazers will be over the tax limit by $26,464,746. That will cause a tax penalty of:
$7.5M (first $5M over) + $8.75M (second $5M over) + $12.5M (third $5M over) + $16.25M (fourth $5M over) + $18.75M (fifth $5M over) + $4.25 x $1,464,746 = $69,975,170

We can only have a max of 15 on the roster. There are currently 17 slots above.
- Assume cut Ezeli
- Assume cut Napier

Total Salaries: $138,773,386

That would generate a tax bill of: $34,513,504

Wow!

Pretty much a guarantee that we are going to look to trade Crabbe and/or Leonard in the next year.
