    Nurk is playing like I expected him to coming off an injury, but since I saw him play well in the bubble, it's harder for me to accept.

    Nurkic only plays 15 minutes. What's going on with him?

    It was noted he was out of shape when he came to camp, late. This is on him.

    If Simons wants to get minutes, he's going to have to shoot better.

    Things getting pretty sloppy but the Warriors can’t score so I guess it’s fine.
