Should the Blazers re-sign Jusuf Nurkic this summer?

1st embiid didn't played in that Game. 2nd that was 1 year ago!

 

The good thing about Nurk's weaknesses this year is they are easily fixable. It's not like he has a bad feel for the game, or has low BBIQ, or is too small for the position, or has a broken shot........his biggest problems come when he forces or rushes a pass or a shot.

 

And he did it again last game we played. I mean come on man, we know you have it out against him but even you can see he is a good player to have on the team.

 

Wait, is there honestly another answer aside from yes to the OP's question?

 

Can someone with a twitter contact Nurkic after he re-signs with us, and ask him to say
"I was surprised the Blazers offered so much."? I always enjoy it when this
place goes ballistic!

 

*****g hater

apologize to everyone else but this guy deserve only this

 

Did anyone come up with a structure?
We know we don't have a true big man coach. And sounds as if Stotts talks to him alot about changes needed; but is someone working with him; someone of the size that he will be facing?

 

Nurk rushes. Zach takes the time to set up a move. The difference is striking. Nurk will get there.

 

Exactly,

Zach will need to get stronger so he can absorb contact instead of being knocked off balance when he is down on the block and Nurk needs to just slow down and focus on his release.

These two will be so fun to watch develop!

 

Um no.. Why are we trying to revise history?? Nurk SUCKED in the first game and we lost... Embiid destroyed Nurk in a game we lost by 20 points and Nurk was a -18 with 6 turnovers.



VS



Now, in game 2 he played A LOT better, and YES Embiid did play and we beat them without Dame:



VS

 

In closing:

Let's not act like Nurk has had good shooting nights VS Embiid. That has never happened.

 

Sorry if my post was ambiguous. I didn't mean last time vs Embid. I mean his (Nurkic's) last game period.

 

People here don't want to hear that. They think 5 good Games in 67 Games is enough

 

Well you're wrong about that so yeah, I don't wanna hear that bullshit either...

 

Nurk sucks and Stotts needs to be fired.

 

Someone has probably already stated this, but I don't see this team contending unless Nurkic and Collins are on the team and both progress to be at least consistent plus contributors on both ends of the court. Lebron is not coming to Portland. Dame, CJ, Collins, Nurkic all playing well could be enough to compete. You take Nurkic out of that and you better have a plan for acquiring someone else really good.

Having said that, if Nurkic craps out the rest of the year I don't want to overpay him. But, if you decide not to match you better have a backup plan that is better than the ET plan.

I remember Embiid looking soft the second game against Nurk.
To the point Philly fans, and Embiid were crying about Nurk being too physical.
Didn't Embiid get a tech this game because he flopped?
3 shots in the paint the whole game, and one of those came against Davis.
3 desperation threes late when the game was pretty much out of reach.

 

I've never seen a tech for flopping. Did he complain after?

Did Nurk shoot well? That was my only point.

 

I hope that PTB will sign Nurkic.
I hope that PTB will be successfull this year in play off with Nurkic.
Then I hope that Labinot will not sleep well.
