Nothing is more annoying to me than the FB threads that talk about MJ like he'd score 150 a game because "handcheck"

It's the modern equivalent of our parents walking uphill both ways to and from school.

I did walk uphill both ways.

And only had a cold pancake in my pocket for lunch.

I think nurse got a raw deal from toronto. They wasn't bad enough for him to lose his job so soon after a title.

2020- lose in the 2nd round in a tough 7 game series to the Celtics. They were the 2 seed.

2021- missed the playoffs but played the entire season on the road so understandable
2022- 5 seed and lose to philly
2023- lose in play-in round

This season was the only disappointment if you ask me.

Yeah, not sure who they think could do better with what he's been given to work with since Kawhi left.

In fact, you could even say with Kawhi since the only reason they got the title they did was as an all time iconic shot and injuries to the Warriors.

He would pass the ball
Yeah the guy more clutch than Curry and Kobe. Don’t be fooled by his “pass first mentality”. Still don’t get why people think Kobe is more clutch, he missed a hell of a lot more than he made. Not sure what Curry’s updated numbers are but a great option as well. I would think better than Kobe

I'm not sure they wanted to fire him though. All the talk I've read for the last few months was Nurse wanted out. This firing is more a mutual parting of ways but for whatever reason, they just called it a firing

I think he wanted out of there as much as they were ready to fire him. He’s a really solid coach with a great feel for NBA defense. He sells culture.

Yup give him a year off and he will be good somewhere.
