    Nurk is a baby beast...he's going to grow into a monster...franchise centers like him don't come around very often. He's going to be way better than a lot of bigs in a couple of years

    He most likely won't, deal with it.

    Also we're Portland fans. We don't want him to get the max because it would be bad for the team. You're only a Nurkic fan, so that's different

    I think Nurk gets Allan Crabbe money for his first big payday..4 years...he won't get Dame money...he makes the all NBA team for the next few seasons and he will get a max deal on his next contract.

    nope, Im POR fan, but unlike some of you, I do appreciate players who deserves it and I recognize talent when I see one
    there will come time when you all gonna cry when Nurk leaves POR in free agency (after next contract), right in his prime

    some of you here dont appreciate him enough, basketball is played on both ends of the floor, not just the offensive end, and years are ahead of him, plenty of time to improve his offensive game... I wish we let him go or trade him, just to see who are we going to bring in... people who think bringing Gasol over would be a good move, are DELUDED !!!!!!!!

    you people really deserve scrub Mason fuckin' Plumlee

    Speaking of Mason...he's on the trade block...I'd shed Meyers contract to replace him on the bench with Mason...straight across trade

    to get rid of...or a shelter for tools, etc,,,Meyers needs a new team...we need to move him...Mason is just available and knows a lot more about the game than Meyers ever will from what I've seen

    One thing I noticed that I wasn't aware of and maybe it's been discussed, but Nurkic's last year is only guaranteed for 4 mil. Not that he likely won't have his option picked up but it shows how much of a team friendly contract Olshey was able to get him to sign.
