Nurk is en Fuego at the moment, post all star break he's been our best player no contest.

His excellent play has made me realize how terrible Eubanks has been playing. Nurk has been a diffrence maker when on the court.

Nurkic is without form, if you looked at numbers it would be okey , but if you watching games you see that he isn’t effective in boxing out opponent , he missing easy shoots from the paint. Definitely he isn’t the same player that he was on the start RS.

I think he's better than Eubanks but on our team he's a mismatch on a team with weak defenders because he doesn't help with any defense except for post defense due to his large size.

He is also a zero lob threat and misses his share of dunks and layups at the rim which is surprising since he's shooting nearly 60 percent near the rim on average. We need a center that can defend better and can finish around the rim on better efficiency, someone like Clint Capela would be ideal.

How in the world a guy with his high basketball IQ can put the ball down low before trying to finish around the rim all the **** time??

I can't imagine how many and many times coaches have repeatedly told him to maintain the ball high...it's frustrating to watch it. You are 7 feet and 290 lbs...why are you putting the ball around your knees before going up???

He looks tired and probably he needed a bigger rest with his ankle sprain. Yesterday's game probably was his worst game as a Suns player.

He was having a nice year, hopefully he can improve his condition for the last run of the season.

Garbage player. 7 points, 8 rebounds on 47% fg is outright embarrassing. I would trade him for peanuts at least they serve a purpose to feed hungry tummies. I don’t want to see Nurkic in a suns jersey again.

First 3 playoff games as a Phoenix Suns Center:

Nurkic 7 ppg 8 rpg 47% fg with absolute 0 defense.

Ayton 22 ppg 12 rpg 62% fg with a great defense.
