Nurkic leaving?

[calvin natt]

Good. Bye Nurk. Try not to foul anyone on your way out.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Nurk played like 41 year old Kurt Thomas in this series.

Losing Nurk is a good thing

That's horseshit and you know it. Before this game Nurk was leading the Blazers in +/-. We needed MORE Nurk this series - without his foul trouble we actually had a chance.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Nurkic and CJ and whatever else it takes to bring Towns to play with Dame!

What is with this obsession with Karl Anthony Biggest Loser In History Towns? Talk about a team that's talented on paper but never does shit.

Nurk is slightly out of touch. I hope things can work out, he has a lot of talent.

Trade idea:

Nurkic + CJ + DJJ + 1st round pick

For

Sabonis + Turner + LaVert


Dame / Ant
Powell / La Vert / Elleby
Kawhi/ Little / Melo
Sabonis / Collins
Turner / Kanter / Vet or Rookie

"this might be the best group of people I've been around.... as far as teammates."

 

[ehizzy3]

Nurk wants a bigger role going into a contract year

I’m ready to move on, if he’s not hurt he’s in foul trouble

 

[calvin natt]

Prima-donna

 

[illmatic99]

Nurk isn't wrong. He should be given the touches CJ got

 

[Chris Craig]

Nurk isn't wrong. He should be given the touches CJ got

They hardly ever feed him in the paint

I like how kawhi just shows up in this line up like he's already on the team lol

Because you cant trust him to make an easy floater.

 

[ehizzy3]

we traded Blevins for him

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

Nurkic thinks to highly of himself - maybe we trade him. A package with CJ will get us one player of importance - let it be a big (Towns, Myles Turner).

First, we need to immediately see OLSHEY and Stotts go...and fast! Get a great GM / coach tandem that will pick this mess up and rock n roll.

You liked that one?

In the words of coach Popovich...."You want the ball more?....go get it, it's right there"

 

[Strenuus]

In the words of coach Popovich...."You want the ball more?....go get it, it's right there"

Then CJ is houdini.

They used to say that about Devin Booker and the Suns.

 

[Tince]

In the words of coach Popovich...."You want the ball more?....go get it, it's right there"

Exactly...

Nurk comes into camp late, out of shape, and says he wanted a bigger role.

If you can succeed consistently with a lesser role, why should you be given a greater role? Seems like backwards logic to me.

 

[HailBlazers]

Stop.

 

[Silver Corvidae]

 

[HailBlazers]

I really like Nurk but he sounds like he wants a bigger role on offense. Unless we can a great big man coach and they can do something amazing with him I just see Nurk always being at most a 4th option. He's not a Jokic and if he thinks he is then it's time to say good bye.

Nurk to Stotts: Happy summer

 

[Titan]

Exactly, Stotts only trusted Dame and CJ, all others never get a chance. This sets a bad precedent. He didn’t even want to defend Nurk by challenging the foul

 

[calvin natt]

Fuck this. Waaaa I want the ball more. Stay in the game, be in great condition. They’ll pass you the ball. This is a pussy move by Nurk. Own your performance.

 

[MickZagger]

Nurk can play. I think he makes a lot of bone headed plays.

But with Stotts “system” it really relies on the guards to dribble the air out of the basketball and whatever Nurk can clean up, he cleans up.

I actually think running the offense through Nurk (which only happened rarely) was really effective. It doesn’t allow Lillard to be trapped and there’s more player movement

 

[James lamphear]

Well he's under contract for another year.

Non guaranteed majority of the contract.

 

[craigehlo]

Non guaranteed majority of the contract.

You think he will be cut? Ain't gonna happen.

Nurk to Stotts: Happy summer

...thanks for this, perfect comedy at this time
