    Nurk definitely has a personality. Something that VERY slightly concerns be is that it DOES seem like Nurkic has an "on" switch. He was visibly more active and working harder this game, where in the last few games you could see his effort and concentration level definitely was not as high. He's so talented that he puts up numbers regardless of how hard he's trying, but when he's locked in, the dude is an absolute monster. Just hope he learns to be focused on every night. Needs to be drilled into him by guys on the team like Lillard and CJ.

    Sooooo without reading everything you guys did hear Nurk wish the nugz a "good summer" when he responded to Brooke's question about the upcoming rockets game right? Not sure if he was lost in translation or not but the only feasible reason he said "hope the have a good summer" is that it was directed at the nugz

    remember when Nurk wasn't too impressed with himself after scoring 28? Like he knew those career highs were only the beginning...

    nurkic is a better all around player than Jokic. If you can't see that, you're a hater. Nurkic was bullying him all night. Even if he scored 0 points he would've had a better game just off of what he was doing on the boards. Jokic pretty much scored all his points on jumpers. Yay. I'll take the two way bruiser any day.

    I love Plums when he was here, but Nurkic is making Denver look like a collection of dumbasses for that trade. LOVE IT!

    Yeah, he is totally skilled and we have him at a young age unlike Sabas. The future is looking bright, buddy!

    Btw I love how nuggets fans don't even mention Plumlee anymore when Nurkic is brought up.

    I mustve missed when we traded them Jokic.

    You shouldn't say Nurkic and bang when @Strenuus is around Sly.

    A player who actually thrives on physicality in the paint. That's what we've needed for a long time.
