    Nurkic played like he had something to prove, which I loved. He bullied Gobert and put Favors in the spin cycle on a couple of occasions. For a person his size, he's extremely nimble and his footwork is better than advertised. I know it's one game, but remember, the kid is just 22 years old. Oh, btw, we got a 1st round pick out of the deal!

    Somewhere in this forum, I once said after a victory over Denver that "I'd love to have one of their big white guys on our team."

    Blazers have already waived the flag. Seasons over.

    That's who Denver players were comparing him to as well.

    I hope Nurkic is our Jermaine O'neal.

    Minus the tiny head and HGH.

    Desperately need Meyers to raise his trade value or else we probably end up giving him away for nothing. He is a 3rd string guy. Not even bench.

    Don't know if we should trade him or keep him. If Layman shows flashes then no problem.... I hope Layman plays more.

    You say "giving him away for nothing" like it's a bad thing.

    Observations on 8 lb 6 oz infant baby Jusuf, don't even know the plays yet.

    Sets a real screen, that CJ figured out quickly how to use.

    Great passer

    Good perimeter on wing defender

    LOVE HIM

    lol honestly I just might take a 2nd round pick for him because I really believe Neil could flip that 2nd rounder into a better deal
