    This is truly absurd. Look, if you want to nitpick, Ed had a better game than Nurk. Same points on fewer shots. More rebounds per minute. Much more offensive rebounds per minute. More steals. More assists. More blocks. Fewer turnovers. Nevertheless, Nurk had a fine game. But you have managed to turn a great win into a controversy between Nurk and Ed, between Nurk and the coach. Rewarding Ed does not equal dissing Nurk.

    I meant both. We're 3rd seed good AND we're taking advantage of situations like a good 3 seed would.

    It can be both, not one or the other. I'd rather take advantage of situations because we're good enough to then lose because we couldn't when we're good enough to... wouldn't you?

    Ed deserved to be in the game. Nurk is still good. It can be both. Sucks some people get lost in that.

    I think something got lost in the translation. Ed is Nurk's teammate. That is the opposite of an enemy.

    If we end up 6th or lower it means we quit letting ED close games.

    But whining is always whining. How bout we do our best to take whining out of the game. :dunno:

    Bottom line, it's s contact sport. And by rule marginal contact and incidental contact is not illegal contact.

    Nurk flops in a bunch of marginal contact situations.

    sure...why not? we're playing the best defense we've played in the modern era...I'll put Dame up against any superstar in the league to will an endgame victory...it's actually a really fun season because of the talent movement in the NBA....we missed Nurk in the playoffs last season with that broken leg...would've made a big difference...every team faces this issue
