    Of course it is..... you really thought that I didn't know that or was trying to say it wasn't?...

    We're talking about types of trades.

    If he’s untouchable Neil should quit

    Not Adams, and Gasol is worse offensively than Nurk. KP isn't a center. I wouldn't say Whiteside is any better either.

    In head to head matchups Nurk outplayed Jordan, Adams, Gasol, Kat, Whiteside and Capela in games last season...….don't get your point Nurk had 20 rebounds against Jordan..you don't like Nurk fine but no need to play down his success against starting centers....on your list Davis gave him the most trouble

    2014-15 the wizards were the 5th overall defense and it was as much of an outlier as the blazers last year. One year don’t mean shit.

    I love how with you any criticism means the poster hates the player and never wants to see him succeed. Have some nuance. Or maybe take your emotions out of it?

    Go back and actually read what I wrote.

    So because it was an outlier for them it'll be an outlier for us? How?

    So your argument is that the Blazers won't be a top-10 defensive team this year?

    Not playing Nostradamus here just saying nurk is not a player I want to hitch my wagon to as a foundational piece. He is on a good contract and I think we finally have a good trade chip.

    Read. Comprehend. Post. You’re missing the first part I’m not going to read back the last posts to you.

    That’s literally not 10 centers. Try again.

    Wonder where Zach tied up Silver. The horse, not the Commissioner.

    You assume (wrongly) that I don’t like nurk cause I don’t think he’s a top player at his position. This is mostly opinion, but also pretty well understood facts to people who watch more than one team in the nba. Doesn’t mean I don’t like him, but his contract reflects his value accurately. Middle of the row starter. If that offends you, tough shit.

    sorry if I missed something....what I didn't miss is your take on Nurk's value as a franchise center...I don't need you to regurgitate anything...move on and refrain from defining my reasons for opinions or emotional levels...just have conversations and things are usually better.
