Here’s the thing: in order to take advantage of the salary cap boom in a couple years you can’t overpay players now with the justification “well the cap goes up so it won’t be that bad in a couple years”.
If Nurkic played Jokic every night he might actually get it because that's when he is really going all out.
FWIW, I'm told the Blazers are 'exploring', but that discussions are very much 'uphill'. Doing their due diligence, and if an opportunity comes up where moving Nurk will improve the team, they are open to it. Didn't sound like anything was likely, but until that has all sifted out, Nurk will probably not be signed right away. @Chris Craig ...doesn't sound like he would walk as there isn't demand from teams that have money. It would be some type of trade.
i doubt he gets signed today, it could go on for a few days some other really good players havent been signed either
I’d rather have Ayton than Nurk, fuck the money, isn’t mine. If it’s win now go all in and we can do a proper rebuild if it all blows up.
We're gettin Durant baby! It's no coincidence that he's in Portland when he made his decision. Dame is workin it!
There's gotta be a trade if we're going after another guard....I guess Bruce Brown can at least guard SFs though.
Wow… that will make us much better. The creativeness of portlands front office for years has been so awful.
