    Fuck yeah. But can't we do SOMETHING about the D? We should have to work this hard with three bone fide offensive threats!

    Nate - I know we have had our differences before.

    But this might be the best thread title and post I have ever seen.


    COME HERE YOU!

    Now we just need to trade for a young Buck Williams and we're good.

    From CBS's "Grading the Trade":

    "Nurkic may eventually become a better player than Plumlee"

    "This deal essentially takes the Blazers out of the playoff race and allows Denver to have the eighth seed."

    It's kind of weird. Philly is a much better team than their record. That team is on the verge of becoming very good.

    Nik said Nurk would play 8 minutes a game and wouldn't fit in til next season at the EARLIEST.

    FOX Sports "Grading the Trade":

    "Nurkic is not the better player in this deal"

    "This move, however, is not about making the playoffs in 2017 as much as investing in Nurkic’s — and the rest of this roster’s — potential."

    Yep! I noticed that Covington went undrafted. Would have been a nice player to get haha

    Covington beat the Blazers on a 3 in January. We never seem to take him seriously on defense. He's legit.

    We are slowly becoming like a new era Spurs team. Developing talent within and getting the most out of other teams players who are great fits in the system. Now we've got to show it in the draft. Time For Olshey to pull a Kawhi Leonard out of his hat...

    I also think Dame should talk to the guys that all got PAID and tell them this offseason they are going to take clinics on what suck at. Dame should work on the D himself.
