    Nurk at his peak is significantly better. But Kanter is just there for you every night doing Kanter things. Never really injured, never really playing any worse or better than who he is.

    Nurk is a German Panzer while Kanter is the Sherman tank. You pick the Panzer any day if it's actually available and not broken down, but you just know there will be plenty of Sherman on any given night.

    Robert Covington is such a "little things" kind of guy. On that inbounds play you can just tell around 3 seconds in he stops focusing on his man and more on the inbounder because he knows they are in danger of an inbound violation and they have to throw a riskier pass. Just really good defensive instincts.

    Without Nurk and collins you really don't see much high post anymore.

    Stotts has his flaws but it's not his fault if someone goes cold. But if you know if things don't go right it's always Stotts fault by some of these guys in this room.

    Yeah i was going to call that out also? Not exactly sure how Dame missing 11 consecutive shots is Terry Stotts's fault? 5 of those shots that missed were three's that we usually want him taking. 6 of those misses were him driving trying to get calls. It did get him 15 trips to the line which he connected on 14 made free throws.

    Overall thought we had strong showing on both side. On defense I didn't see a lot wide open shots and 2nd half they didn't let simmons get to his spots inside the key like the 1st half. On offense there were a lot players pitch in for that win Trent Melo Dame Kanter and others. But I thought the big key for this win was how the 2nd unit play last night. They solid on both ends and they extended then lead in the 1st half and they got us the lead in the 2nd half.

    If it's Steve Javie as the ref, then it's not against the Bullets. Because he wasn't the ref in the games that the Blazers played @ the Bullets in 93-4 or 94-5, or 92-3, or 95-6.

    Nurk is way too inconsistent playing wise and definitely health wise. You can start Nurk if you want just to satisfy he’s fragile ego but Kanter is better and should play more than him.

    Nurk dreams of the offensive post moves Kanter is good at. Give me Kanter over Nurk any day..
