In his Beast days, Nurk was very , very good. Even dominant in games. But since his major injury, he's been good at times, and mediocre to worse just as much.
Those numbers are very telling. Your eyes and my eyes , most likely , can verify this as far as Nurk goes. It's been maddening watching a pass set him up at point blank range, and he figures out a way to bumble it. Whether it be his loose hands, or a lazy flippa-rooski shot. Also he needs to stop bringing the ball down to waist level. Get the ball, and go up strong to the rim in one motion. I think he would get more calls if he did . Those waist flip shots aren't respected by anyone including the refs.
Of course not, but that's not what I meant. I'm talking about Nurk as somebody you can put on Jokic to slow him down a little. The Heat have nobody like that. Bam's great but he's way undersized for that role.
Nurkic needs to lose weight, work on conditioning, and work core strength. He’s going to be a huge dude even dropping significant weight.
