how good is it you can give the ball to Nurk in the post and you can be confident he'll make the right decisions

He also draws fouls. Something the Suns haven't had for a few years at PF or Center.

Warriors are way too small. Really missing Green.

That's what I mean, he can and will punish smaller defenders, he'll make the right pass and he'll draw fouls. It's awesome

He's not stopping nobody. This is all he can do now, draw offensive fouls

Lol.


Love this place. I came to see how many Nurk lovefest posts I would see halfway through the 1st quarter.


I am not surprised.


Nurk all NBA 1st team? Waiting patiently for that one.

Nurkic is giving me a hard on if he plays like this in all areas - rim protection, rebounding, finishing, passing he's better than Ayton

Good start.

Book and KD both have a foul, can’t afford for either to get in foul trouble with Beal out.

Lesser "talent", lesser athlete, better basketball player.

At the end of the day, and acknowledging it won't be perfect, its probably what we needed.
