Throwing anything near the rim still works when Mitchell is nearby especially when Mitchell has a mismatch like he does here. Still hilarious though.

Nurk has and always will be a tier 1 menace for stuff like either this or him doing something that infuriates you like a weird flip shot attempt

[–] Adrasto@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

When I lived in Rome, there was a sentence the guy guarding you would scream, after you missed a shot while playing hoops. That sentence was:"This is who you are!".

It’s the “shoot it pussy” forbidden jutsu strategy. Can turn even the best shooter into Ben Simmons.

LOL I remember Nurk showing the same disrespect to AD's 3 pointer last season. Bro's a menace

I feel like any team could beat the Knicks if they defend Randle like this. Let him chuck

lol mad disrespectful

I don't think it's disrespect he's just that lazy. Notice how even tho he turns away early he doesn't hustle to the rim or even try for the rebound. This is why in PDX he will forever be known as Nurkbitch

[–] PalsRUs@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He's a 7 footer, he doesn't move like a guard. He's not getting that rebound nor is it his responsibility. If the shot's short, he's there. Just because he's not running around doesn't mean he's being lazy in that instance. You guys get tricked by the appearance of effort.

Tbh, I think nurkic just doesn't have respect for his ability to guard it lmao. Either that or he's saving his energy

The no mix up, mix up

[–] PalsRUs@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Randle isn't like a pure jump shooter, isn't he more of a spot guy?

Pretty sure, he isn't a great midrange shooter from the baseline, it's more from the elbows he's a threat. Doesn't seem crazy to think Nurk knows where to contest hard or not from a pregame scouting report.

Disrespect aside, how can you be in the NBA and miss that shot??

[–] iworkbluehard@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That's what you call 2020' Portland Trail Blazers' defence.

[–] Alpha1stOne@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He is finally on a team where he can be the Alpha instead of helping prop up a weaker alpha that the team was telling him to baby.

KD and Booker needed someone with strong mentality to mentor them and seems like he is turning their careers around.

i need a supercut of Nurkic not caring about what's going on on the floor

[–] BasketballHighlight@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I remember he did this to JV and he kept splashing threes on him, but damn he's been destroying Davis and Rangle with this move

[–] Low_Delay2835@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Jusuf " IDGAF of your jumper" nurkic

[–] GaviFromThePod@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

You call it disrespect. As a blazers fan I can tell you that I've seen this move before and it's motivated by nothing more than laziness

[–] Dull_Artichoke5760@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nurkić is from Bosnia and I am from Bosnia We know how to make people angry and disrespectful and we(Bosniaks) are intelligent
