    I don't think it's Nurk. I think he would have played in game one if it was his call.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I assume Stotts and Olshey and the front office in general are working together, with the information the medical staff gives them, to make the determination. I assume Olshey has final say.

    Team doc has to clear him before anything else, then after that its probably a combination of Nurk/Terry with Terry making the ulitmate decision.

    The error, of course, is not passing the decision making over to this forum.

    I suspect if this was a series against Memphis or LAC, he would be playing. Since we're playing the Warriors, I can't imagine there's a huge incentive to rush him back.

    He just wants the Willis Reed treatment by the home crowd in Game 3.

    I don't believe he has been training with the team. He has only been doing shooting drills from what I gather.

    The front office has zero say in this.

    The front office deals with stuff like this forum, ticket prices, and the Comcast deal. They have zero say in the player side of things. Zero.

    Honestly I think a game three entrance is the best scenario for many reasons. Gives Nurk more time to recover. Also, gives him the best location to come back. If he comes back strong and the Blazers win two home games then all the sudden the series is tied and Blazers have the momentum going back to GS.
