Book is saving his ass to play against his nemesis, Klay Thompson.

Nurk being on the court has been the leading cause for the Multiple Laker comebacks at this point. Yikes.

Nurk's just not a good matchup for the Lakers. Feels like he gets burned every time.

Game is getting away from us but we literally saw this same scenario last game. Hopefully history repeats itself. No more Nurk for tonight.

Laker fans at my work keep telling me Reeves is better than Booker, so annoying I got to go back to that on Monday. Devin Booker please get your head out your ass.

Nurkic. Honestly, he absolutely lost us this game. He has more turnovers than points. -19 for the game. Didn’t play a minute in the 4th.

This is going to be a really bad year for Nurkic, isn't it? He just really feels like he doesn't fit in this year.
I love Tyus Jones but he had only 4 assists and 3 TOs tonight. Turnovers in general were high for our guys: Nurk - Beal - Plumlee each had 4 (oof), Book - KD - Royce - Oso each had 3.

It’s only game 2 but we’ve seen enough of Nurk to know we just can’t win with him. Ayton and Nurk are really different players but can’t win with either. Happy we got Grayson. He makes the trade worth it but really worried we are gonna have use our 1st to get rid of Nurk. Honestly, a mid center that just does the dirty work would probably be better at this point. Not sure who fits that bill right now.
