Fit doesn't get talked about enough. Neither does the fact that the trade was not 1 for 1 Nurk for Ayton

I'm fine with moving Ayton. The return needed to be better and for a not crappy player. Nurk is a net negative and if you think he's better than Ayton then you're on PCP.


If you extract me saying Nurk is better from what I wrote then you are full on (Please Use More Appropriate Word). To sum up, I said Ayton made little impact.


I wasn't focusing purely on you. That comment was meant for anyone who thinks that. Nurk is not better than Ayton.
I’m shocked, more straw man arguments from slim. No one said Nurk was better than Ayton, literally no one, ever. Btw since you ignored my last post did you want to put a signature bet down on wether Beal will avg more than KD this year or are you tip toeing through the tulips on that one already? After all, you are always right so no sweat off your back ya?
I hate this team.

Bro, you can't expect me to keep track of all of the nonsense you spew, I ignored the post thinking you were talking about doing filthy things with pigs again.

I am happy you've come off that silliness about me being wrong "about literally everything" lol....however, I do my betting in Vegas or on a sportsbook. Not some silly AV/sig bet. You'll notice I don't even have one....that's how little I care. I don't even have an idea of what I'd put on yours.

Take your broke boy bet to your fellow anti-Ayton buddies.

That’s like the 3rd time you bent at the knee. It never gets old. Another day, another slumcharles side step. If you decided to put your money where your mouth is let me know, KD vs Beal PPG you got Beal. Oink Oink

Beal- 26.7 ppg

KD- 24.8 ppg

It’s pretty obvious mister

Ayton didn't want to be here, and he played like it. The guy has talent to tease but his immaturity is clear to see, championship windows are short and Book and KD knows we don't have time to be babying Ayton's feelings if the goal is to win a championship

We are better off without this immature soft diva here no matter how good his physical profile looks, deal with it.

Not a lot of chatter about this last night in the game thread but I certainly did appreciate the bully ball.

Lost respect for Jokic. Who flops in a preseason game like that and flopping needs to be outlawed. Can’t stand players baiting refs into foul calls. For every flop players should be fined 25k. Receive 8 flops a year and miss one playoff game. That should definitely minimize flopping and make the game more watchable.

Bit worried so far he looks to be a spectator around the rim on defense, hope he's just getting use to things.

Too early for that. He's still learning Vogel's defense and the Big 3 weren't playing to help with rotations. That being said he's looked a step slower than normal because of it.

I'd wait a good 15-20 games into the reg season for better insight.

This is who Nurk is boys, welcome to the Terror Dome. For all of those who thought Ayton was lacking on D and slow....you ain't seen nothing yet.

Nah too deep in the paint, there wouldn’t have been jab steps. It would have been quick pass out without even thinking about actually scoring.

Sure wait 20 games until you realize Nurk is indeed a step slower than you'd want, and a spectator on defense.

Watched the game with my blazer friends, with my help (and DAs play) they are already sniffing him out. They both also said the press conference was a little odd the way he kept talking about himself. “He seems really immature “.
I hate this team.
