Nurk may be the second-best player on this terrible team. But can be be the second-best player on a contender? Or stated a different way, can you build a contender around Dame with Nurk and no other players that are better than Nurk? If not, then your statement is not relevant.
I don't think Dame and Nurk can be your two best players on a contender. Need that ~superstar wing alongside Dame, Hart, Nas, and Nurk.
