    True it would be nice to get Nurk minutes in the playoffs. But I think people forget how good the Warrior are. They were freaking annihilating people before Durant's injury. He will be back. We might be able to slow the 2 home games down enough for Nurk to be a factor, but I am guessing the games in GS will be track meets. Not sure Nurk would be a huge factor. But I could certainly be wrong.

    However it's the "returning to basketball purgatory" part of the original post that I find absurd.. I just can't possibly see how Nurk's injury makes that big of a difference in that scenario. Nor do I see how dropping 3-5 spots in the draft will. It's a deep draft with few stars at the top. So there are plenty of good young players out there that we can get with 3 first round picks. We just have to get the right ones.....as always. Nothing new there.

    No more. I forgive you, but no more jerseys. Or better yet, buy a LaMarcus jersey.

    What if this injury thing is just a ploy so Nurkic can play center for the Ducks tonight and Monday?

    "Only amateurs can play in the NCAA!"
    "Would you call me professional for trying to trick you?"
    "No I'd say you were being completely unprofessional!"
    "...well?"
    "Wow... all right you're free to play!"

    I see Vonleh and Aminu as a 3/4 Nurk.

    Why can't we make the playoffs? It at least gives the concession people extra cash and helps me consume Rolling Rock for the televised games.

    The Blazers were 13-3 in March and appeared to be improving. They seemed pretty competitive to me. Injuries happen. Golden State dodged a bullet, I say ;)

    Jokes on us. Denver Nuggets did an April fool's trade on the Blazers couple days early.

    If the Blazers play him this year, everyone should be fired.
