    Good comments!
    Im not sure id give Nurkules a max contact, unless he leads us to semi finals of WCC!

    No way I would trade Nurk. Too young, too much potential, and too hard to get equal value . Need to re-sign him.

    Hey Tyk,
    I'd love to re-sign him, but unless he can lead us to 2nd/3rd round of playoffs Im not sure we give him a max?
    If he's up and down from here on out I would think they would offer him a decent contract to stay here or let him test his value and possibly match.
    I also, think much will depend on what other players are either traded and or re-signed?
    Take care

    No way Nurk gets a max from anyone. He’ll be a bargain. He’ll get less than Steven Adams (who gets $25m per) and he’s a better player imo.

    that's a fair assessment, but all the experts say this is NOT going to be the year top dollars are offered. Nurk is still very young, and I feel a fair offer will get him locked in. There's just no players with his talent that I see on the horizon, and the chemistry he and Dame have will lead to great things in the coming years. I don't believe, His Max, is as high as what his third contract would be. It may just be very affordable in comparison to replacement. Just need to figure a way to unload Leonard's contract, which may be doable this offseason with 2 years left.
