    Said it during the Pistons game:

    Nurk and Dame 4 Eva

    They're jelling. Huge upside.

    I thought Stotts didn't know how to coach big men.

    Wouldn't change the offense for Nurk.

    Lillard would never pass to a big man.

    Stotts would make Nurk nothing but a 3pt shooter.

    Dame finds two open teammates last two possessions and they don't make their shots. Can't make your team mates better when they aren't making shots. Crabbe and vonleh have the responsibility to knock those shots down
