    This is why Stotts is trash

    Even though he missed. With 12 seconds how do you allow that? In the huddle im telling my bigs to either flat hedge or hard hedge any Westbrook on ball. If he hits Adams on a slip screen who fucking cares, big deal. Let him lay it up with 7 seconds left.

    Then you have to play the foul game again but with less time.


    Instead Nurkic sags to the key and we ask Harkless to get over a Steven Adams screen.

    Nurkic has a much higher pitched voice than I would ever have thought

    38 huge minutes for Nurk. And he's supposedly not in shape.

    Do we need a Nurkic appreciation thread?

    Or is that basically what every thread will become?
