Trail Blazers center @bosnianbeast27 is a fun-loving, gregarious fellow, so much so that sometimes it’s can be hard to tell when he’s making a joke. But when the 7-0 center from Bosnian & Herzegovina declared after a recent practice that one of his goals is to make the NBA’s All-Defensive First-Team, there was no doubt regarding how serious he is about the aspiration.
.
“I want to be first-team defense because I think people overlook a lot of things,” said Nurkić. “That’s why I’m going to probably be even more aggressive on defense this year. There’s going to be times it’s not going to look like it but I definitely approach the game defensively more aggressive this year.”
.
Making any All-NBA team is difficult, so Nurkić will certainly have his work cut out for him if he’s to achieve such a lofty goal. But when you consider how much Portland’s defense has improved since his arrival — the Trail Blazers finished the 2017-18 season in the Top 10 in defensive efficiency, something which seemed unattainable just a few seasons ago — and specifically their recent success in defending the restricted area, Nurkić making the All-Defensive team seems much more feasible.
.
And besides what’s the point of a setting a goal if it’s easily attainable?
.
“I always have goals,” said Nurkić. “Obviously I’m not going to be in position to win MVP but definitely I want to have approach to have some goals I can reach, definitely. To me, we are a good defensive team last year and we gonna improve that. Why I’m not gonna be there too?”
