    thanks nurk. you were an amazing player this season and even more amazing teammate and human being. Always showing support to the team and having fun with them in things like post game interviews and what not. You didn't deserve what happened to you, but I have no doubt you'll come back better and stronger than ever. Prayers up big guy.

    Thanks nurk I didn’t watch a lot of this season because I have a newborn, but man you’ve been a beast this year. Look forward to you coming back next year and being even better.

    God speed Nurk. We all pray for you to feel better, to stay strong, and to heal better than ever.

    You are a Trailblazer.

    And we are proud you are!

    I didn't know until he went down that he was tied with Dame for my favorite NBA player. Just immediately felt it in my gut when I saw him laying there. You don't know what you got....

    It's funny, but I think one of the things I'll miss most is him getting hit in the face by random NBA opponents. He reminds me of a hunting dog I once had who would throw himself into any kind of bramble chasing after his prey. Didn't care what was in his way. Always had fresh scratches after every hunt, and that was the way he wanted it. All heart.

    Best dog I ever had.

    Get well, Nurk.

    I love the guy. He breathed so much life into this team. Things were looking so bleak before we traded for him. I hope he recovers fully and he can pick up where he left off.

    I don't think I'll be watching anymore basketball this year, it's just going to be a sickening reminder of what happened and what could have been. But as my last post for awhile just want to wish Nurk a speedy and full recovery. Just don't rush back, you're still young and I know you can come back strong as ever.

    I'm sure Dame and the other players will appreciate the fans that turn their back on them when times got tough.

    People process things differently. Don’t judge others based on how you feel right now. This fan base has been through a lot of bullshit over the years with Roy and Oden. Some people just need a break.
