nurk returns in january 

Post#1 » by Dzon Dilindzer » Sun Nov 24, 2019 12:07 am

info coming from bosnia & herzegovina, from some guy who had truthful insider info about nurk in the past

i dont know if this will change our season, but it will be great for nurk to get playing time and get ready for the next season and hopefully we see the old nurk during this season... logical assumption was somewhere around all-star break, but it will happen earlier and im really excited about this

A recovering Nurk is going to need a lot of time to get his timing down. Depending how the team's
record when he is ready to play, one would expect the team to be conservative

I want him back but I want him back healthy. If he is healthy in January bring him back then but if not wait until he is healthy.
Also when he does come back give him time to get his groove back. Don't force him to play big minutes before he is ready

Well if he is out till January that would give him roughly 10 months to recover, he was injured on March 25th in 2019. I don't think we are really rushing him back if this franchise is being careless with their C's after how many great players we lost to injury they haven't learned their lesson.

I could see ya waiting it out longer If we really blow. 13-30 type of record would do it
