http://nurkic.com/amazing-block-on-r...s-celebration/ … - After the amazing block by Nurkic, Kenneth Faried said something in Bosnian. @KennethFaried35 @nurkic23 #Nuggets

After the amazing block on Ryan Kelly in Tuesday night away victory Kenneth Faried said screamed in Bosnian “Jebi se!” which confused viewers. Even, the Bosnian viewers were confused.

Jusuf Nurkic smiled back as he understood this was meant in a good way. We all laughed our loud here at Jusuf Nurkic Official Fan Base when that happened, and for all of you who don’t understand, check what does “Jebi se” mean in Google Translate.

I love Steven Adams and all but Nurkic deserves this.

[slice me nice]

Bosnian basketball is made a kind of rush in recent years. Nurkic is the strongest example of this improvement. I am sad that we couldn't redound this guy to Turkish NT when he was younger. I am kidding , best wishes to Bosnia.

So, what you wrote is true. Indeed, such a trend can be seen in the NBA. It is a pity; /

He definitely should be. Unfortunately I think that because the new format is now for the NBA player "coaches" to pick the players they most want on their team instead of who is most deserving, Nurkic won't get picked. I hope I'm wrong though.

What do you think about this kid? He is 20, strong body, after Nuggets have traded Moz, he is the first center. Can we expect him in Rising Stars Challenge?
Here is something interesting from his official fan base:

http://goo.gl/tNPy85 - "A Little Known Story About Jusuf Nurkic"

Jusuf Nurkic’s dad is a policeman in Tuzla, Bosnia and Herzegovina. One day a Bosnian sports agent Enes Trnovcevic was reading a newspaper where he read: “Bosnian policeman, Hariz Nurkic has beaten 14 people in a fight.” He knew what to do instantly! Next day he went to Tuzla and met with Nurkic’s father. The only thing he asked him was: “Do you have a son?” Jusuf Nurkic was at that time a 14 years old boy and never trained basketball. Enes Trnovcevic took him to Slovenia and gave him an opportunity he accepted and used.

Amazing body, pure talent.
