    The hand is a fragile, yet vital need in BBall. Because of all the nerve endings, it's probably useless to his craft.

    Does AD fit with Nurkic?

    I guess you missed the part that said "this isn't a trade thread".

    I didn’t say anything about a trade.

    Why would you be questioning if AD fits with Nurkic then?

    We already talked about it at length in the other thread.

    I’m just asking do they fit. Why not answer the question?

    Because it was talked about at length in the trade thread and you're questioning a fit only achievable via trade, in a thread that specifically said it wasn't a trade thread.

    Just go find it in the trade thread. I don't have time to go back and read through all the posts that were made and summarize them all haha.

    But if you really want an answer, Nurkic and Vonleh fit well together..

    I don’t need you to summarize the entire conversation. Just let me know what you think. I’m honestly interested and have no idea what the answer is. AD isn’t Vonleh.

    AD joins the Blazers and I'll quit sticking pins in his voodoo doll.

    I'm just saying we have like 3 AD threads going at once. Their conversation is well thought out and addresses multiple nuances. It's a complicated answer with many different ways to look at it. That's why I'm saying just go find it in the trade thread. It'll thoroughly answer your question.

    Personally, I don't see why they wouldn't fit. Nurkic as a passer with AD and Dame off the ball would be good. AD is a good passer out of doubles do I don't see people being able to effectively double off Nurkic without Davis being able to get him the ball. They'd be the best defensive frontcourt in the league. They'd be a good fit together.

    Nice. That’s exactly what I was asking for. Thank you.

    Met AD very briefly in November. Cool dude. He was walking in Millenium Park in Chicago with cameras following him. Told him that after he whooped us in the playoffs that he needed to come to Portland. He said he and Dame are cool and he liked the intensity of the fans.

    It ain’t worth much, but he clearly has some respect.

    If he comes over, the team needs to hook you up

    I’m supposedly pouring wine for one NBA team at their final team dinner before their last home game. We shall see if it pans out. But I’m supposed to travel to them and pour wine at a dinner the night before their final home game. Not as cool as pouring for my #1 team but it’ll be sick if it pans out.
