Nurkic is 3-17 in the playoffs, the worst in NBA history by any player in playoffs with 20+ games played



Glad he’s not our problem anymore

  1. You can both think we won the trade and still like Nurk.

    I think it is more of a reflection on the Dame/CJ./Nurk era and especially how they would exit the playoffs.

    2 magical shots and a run to the WCF kind of blurred the fact that they were just 0.354 as a team in the playoffs.

    6-32 (0.152) when it was time to go to Cancun. In the 8 eliminations – 3 Sweeps, 4 Gentlemen and just once were they able to get a series to 6 before the exit.

    I know Dame is hurt, but it’s kind of funny that they may all go out the same way they always did. Sweep, Sweep, Gentlemen.

    Dame being all in on Nurk definitely cost him

    You have to remember that our WCF run was the same season that Nurk broke his leg. Would we have gone as far without Nurk being out? Who knows. However, if our run would have been the same, you get to add what, 8 more wins before we ran into the Warriors yet again?

    Never had the game for the playoffs

  6. Any explosiveness or lift he ever had, which wasn’t a lot, is gone. Just not skilled to make up for the lack of athleticism.

    This is definitely a stat you can attribute to one player. totally his fault alone

    This would kind of mean anything if he was ever a #1, 2 or even 3 option on any of those teams. All it tells me is that anyone who was the #1, 2 and 3 options on his team just weren’t that good.
