Could be worse. We could be Warriors fans. Last I checked, they were nearly doubled up and down 50 points to the Grizz.

Edit: that was end of 3rd quarter. 4 minutes left in the game. Still down 50!
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Hmm, I feel like Nurk has been decent in this one
Decent stats. - 9 though
I’m just used to the missed bunnies and turnovers…none of that tonight
Fore sure. Not usual terrible game Nurk. Just net negative Nurk.

Still not doing anything well enough to hang our hat on and pull away in a game. Offensively and defensively we're meh. We don't get out and run, we're an average shooting team, a bit undersized, not super athletic. Bad mix of players, no flow, no vibe.

I don't know what Bud is thinking because Nurk is not the right guy to play against the Pacers. Plumlee and Oso would be better or even Dunn/Royce at the 4 and KD at the 5.

I loved the possession where KD dribble dribble dribbled, got doubled, lost it, got it back, passed it to Nurk who had to put up a hurried 3 which bricked.

Quickly evolving back to last year where we were not even fun to watch. Losing the enjoyment again. Don't care if I miss some plays. This roster of these 3 losers just ain't it. No life. No pride.

This team is cooked as currently constructed.


Nurk is unplayable. And it’s clear that Butler is exactly the type of asshole this team needs.
