    Nurkic is not Hakeem and he needs to prove that he can stay healthy , let's turn that hype down a bit.

    The tiny bit of pride left in me knows better than to go around with butters as a profile pic

    RipCityDSCPL Could be worse, at least it's not Lonzo.

    Keep it as a painful reminder to all the haters when Crabbe succeeds in Brooklyn.

    I think besides Nurk, one could also argue that we got better through the draft as well. Even if it takes a year or two to see it. I mean OKC will be better than us next season, but if they lose George after one year that improvement is short term since they gave up on two pieces to get him.

    Houston was pretty good last year. Did they really get better? Or are they the same? Will they win more than 55?
    Utah got worse.
    Minnesota got better for sure, but thy still do not have what I call an excellent go to guy down the stretch. Butler is a very good player, but I am not sure he can take over a game offensively on a consistent basis.

    Denver got better as well with Millsap, but I would put them in the same boat as Minnesota.
    Clippers got worse. Did Memphis get better?

    It's still July. Things can change.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    In a universe in which Swanigan is the best power forward ever, yes.

    The off-season is dream season.

    He will probably succeed in limited ways. I expect to see his scoring go up, but he defensive numbers will remain. He just doesn't seem to have the mental makeup to get him over the top. I like him and wished we could have kept him a bit longer, but have to admit that he had lots of opportunity to turn the corner, and didn't.

    Teletovic better than Barkley or the Bosnian hype ends with Nurk?

    No.

    People need to use their brains. :smiley-crazy:

    Nurk is in a contract season. HE is gonna break out too.

    I didnt see any use of brain by declaring Nurk better than Hakeem. Unless we mean right now.
