    This guy is a good follow on Twitter. Did a few tweets on us and Nurk specifically. Wondering how you guys felt about these numbers......

    So you can figure out how to organize all these tweets, and you call us nerds?

    Was wondering what you numbers guys thought of all this and might explain it a bit. Doesn’t look good.

    Last year Nurk was spending a lot of time in the high post. This year it seems like we have gone away from it. I'd like to see him get more possessions there

    17-18-17-30-17th percentile. Nurk has to be the league leader in consistency, right?

    Nurk is flat out garbage posting up most nights. Turnovers, missed shots, wasted possessions. He just has absolutely no feel for this part of the game. You're 23, Nurk--you've got lots of time to add that tool to your arsenal in the summer. You don't have to be elite at everything all at once.

    For now just focus on pick and rolls.

    I feel like I'm the only one noticing this.

    It's what some of us said early. He is playing too fast, and teams adjusted to him. He is in desperate need of some time with a big man coach to teach him good footwork

    Who was that guy who set those monster picks last year and then was like a steamroller going to the basket?

    Miss that guy.

    Doesn't pass eye test.

    Our lack of pace and passing (for assists), and inability to get open shots is why our offense is in the shit.

    Our lack of finishing around the basket and Nurk's general sloppy play is sure a big part of it.

    The longer big men with any shot whatsoever spend in Stotts system, the farther they get away from the hoop. Meyers, Nurk....Collins and Biggie next?

    No, you're not the only one. I wince every time I see a post calling for Nurkic to post up more, same as I winced earlier in the year every time someone wanted Swanigan to post up more.

    Then I assume we need to adjust to their adjustments?
