    You can't have a fat center in Terry's offense. We all know that. The post player has to shoot because.... Well, Dirk!

    He's been properly scouted now. Just grab ass on him a lot and see him throw up panicky chippies in frustration.

    It will be interesting to see if Nurk adjusts and slows down enough to play to his strengths.

    Did you see the game? He was grabbed around his waist, like what teams do when they are intentionally trying to foul, but the refs didn't call it, so the Bucks just raced down the other end for a jam.

    We played a good team, on their opening night at home, in an arena full of loud fans and their star scored a career high. And we only lost by a couple points. And the refs were shit.

    I'm not all that upset by this one. The Bucks were on point tonight and we gave them fits.

    He needs to work the post, body guys, use his weight and size. He is hurrying and his game is clumsy.

    They couldn't even hit the rim in the last minute of the game. Pathetic execution.

    The over-reactions are juicy though.

    The only play that mattered is CJ not passing it (before the 'hold') to a wide open Dame. Guy straight up left Dame to come help. CJ needs to read that.

    Jesus Christ, forgive me for I have sinned against thee. I disagree with every dark fiber of my soul.

    Nurk had plenty of rest when he came into the 4th. He screwed the pooch in violation of everything that is holy.

    So let me get this straight, our center had 17 pts, 11 rebs, 3 assists and 3 blocks..... and he is trash? Wow if that's a bad game I will take 79 more of them please.

    As for the block at the end there are 2, maybe 3 players in the league that can block that without a foul. He is called the Freak for a reason.
