    Truly one of the worst proposals I’ve ever seen.

    I do like Issac but Nurk/Nas/and a pick, pick swap is too much. Not a Mo fan either.

    "In return, the Magic would get back Jusuf Nurkic to fill in as the backup center behind Wendell Carter Jr."

    OMG Nurk would be pissed.

    It’s cool that you think your findings are so much better than others that they deserve it’s own thread. I wish I had that kind of confidence.

    Nothing special about finding a link. But I think Isaac the player deserves a thread. He’s that good. Even better, let’s get Isaac AND Siakam/Simmons. Isaac has All Star potential.

    There was talk of Stotts coaching in Orlando at some point. imagine the alternate universe where Nurk ends up there with Stotts and how pissed he'd be then.

    I would give up picks + young talent but not nurk for Isaac. Assuming he’s fully recovered from his acl, he was flashing 1st team all defensive shit before he went down.

    Of course we’d need to figure out what to do with cj. But a lineup of dame/norm/Isaac/Covington/nurk could be so nasty defensively.

    That gets the job done. All 4 starters on a team with Dame need to be A-list defenders.

    Just say "NO!" to big men who can't stay healthy.

    For Dame to win title, he needs teammates like Isaac. We haven't won a playoff series with Nurk.

    and we have won two playoff series with kanter, therefore kanter is better than nurk or at the very least, kanter is better fit for this team

    blazers gave up on a wrong player

    Isaac is indeed a wonderful talent. But he's even worse than Zach Collins at staying healthy.

    So you're saying we could trade Nurk for Zach straight across?
