    With the exception of maybe one or two people, I don't think the negativity is about GP.... it's about the size of the team and the fact that we're hard capped. I really like Gary as a player. I like what he brings. I just have a lot of concerns about our size, especially since we're hitching our wagon to a center who can't stay healthy most seasons.

    And I think people who seem to struggle to understand why people are frustrated aren't really paying attention to what people are saying.

    Gary's demeanor reminds me of Dame.

    No I understand. They are just wrong IMO. We'll see when the season starts.

    I guess we will see. Hopefully we're not finding ourselves back in a situation from a couple years ago where we had no healthy bigs.

    Nurk is a good dude. One of those magnetic personalities that can groove with everyone. I think Jerami's point with his answer is, that he's a different player now and has grown since his early days as a role player with the Thunder & Nuggets. So, sure, he won't be the 1st or second option all the time, but that he has developed a nice skillset and can score.
