Looks like he screens, talks chit- then rolls to the basket. I could be totally wrong though.

Doesnt look like he said anything to him. But even if he did, would trash talking be considered bush league? Then guys like MJ, Kobe, Bird, Payton and so on would be bush league MVPs.

No. I agree. It just looked weird that he didn't roll and looked down at him. You know the "taunt while standing over you". But whatever.

Herro poked the bear, and almost got mauled.
No sympathy for him. Nurkic screen was fine don't get up in your feels just cuz you got knocked on your ass. Just get up and keep playing.

Nurk grew up in the Bosnian war. He isn't afraid of any of these dudes in the league much less these pampered aau babies. Reminds me of when Telotovic fouled Lebron on a fast break and Bron charged at him doing the "hold me back" thing. And people actually thought Mirza should fear Lebron when he also grew up in the Bosnian war.. hilarious stuff tbh.

Everything about this “altercation” is lame tbh.

Nurkic standing over and staring down Herro after setting a screen while down by 10 = lame
Herro’s weak push = lame
Nurk’s little lefty slap = lame
Herro pretending he actually wanted to fight = lame

Ya no doubt, it was a quick stare down. But ya I just dont think that is all that unseen in the NBA. AI stepping over Lue is one of the most remembered moments, Harden staring down the defender after he broke his ankles, anytime someone stares down a guy after they put them on a poster. Set a damn good screen, Im cool with a quick stare down.

(With that said, I know this isnt some hill youre trying to die on anything haha. I totally get your point)

Good legal screen by Nurk.

Herro acting like a clown.

It's definitely not unseen, It's just hella disrespectful lol.

difficult to say if nurk had intention to punch him with a fist or slap him, given martin was quick to stop it

Nurks forearm is bigger than Herro's bicep.. That would have felt like hitting a child

Always funny seeing guys act hard in certain situations then becoming total peace makers in others. I don't know which Martin brother that is but he always seems to love to jump in stuff when he's got numbers or it's a smaller guy. But this time he just wanted to tell Nurk that was a no no.

Anyone calling Nurk bush league either doesn't know what that means or something (I won't say what). Good on Nurk. These fake tough guys and instigators need to just play the game, have fun, and not poke the bear(s).

Screen was fine. Both dudes deserve suspensions for the after.

Lol Nurkic was 1 year old when the Bosnian war ended. Pretty sure he wasn’t throwing hands on the battlefield.

Nurkic laid out some wood on Herro and made a sub out of him.

Heat as usual, bitch made fake tough guys. Can't wait for Spo and the players to talk crap after the game too.

Just separate them, give them a warning and keep playing, there’s no need to make a big deal out of it

Perfectly normal screen by Nurkic... all the rest was the usual "hold me back" stuff.

Will someone explain to the Heat player that they have zero chance against the Balkans?
