never seen him get mad at his players, just cursing the Refs. Terrific coach
He doesn’t curse the players but he has this look of utter confusion,shock, and disappointment whenever we turnover hahaha
Ask Siakam lol he’s not Nick’s fan of humor
Nurse was often ripping Boucher until he apologized after realizing he was going to far.
Sounds like Randy can’t take criticism.
@@Hurry4Curry Boucher deserves it. He has the potential to be a two-way rim protecting stretch big, but he often plays like a two-guard. Two-way rim protecting stretch is the most valuable archetype you can have (besides superstar of course). Just look at how JJJ transformed the grizzlies this year.
Can we acknowledge the fact that he has the NBA Street 2 picture of Dr. J when you unlock him on his sweater 😂😂
We should!! 😁
I seriously need to find that sweater now.
@@Braktooth its actually from his Nick Nurse Foundation! Look it up...they sell merch for the foundation.
Wish they would remake that game
@@84naners Thank you! I will do that.
Nick Nurse is one of the single most likable members of the NBA community
Lol among whites probably
@@LeChina need a hug?
@anthony cavitt gotta have it i am actually, very overrated.
He looks like he was lifted off of R/NBA lol
Fantastic coach and person! Raptors are lucky to have NNurse running the show with his innovative and practical approach. Scottie Barnes is in good hands and the Raptors near future is bright!
Drafted him in fantasy, great late round pick!
terrific coach. but they got also a terrific break in the finals when kd and klay went down!
@@dodu8281 Lets see how the Raptors do this year! Probably win another🏆
Lets GOOOOOOO
🦖🦖🦖🦖🦖
and now hes gone...
@@abdul-nasserismail871
He looks humble and very down to earth... Good coach and i like how he adapts to new players and to his opponents
Even now when the Raptors aren't great, the team still plays good basketball rather than relying on one player to chuck shots up (which is usually the case in the team's fighting for play in spots or below). Huge credit to Nick Nurse for that and it will help the Raptors a lot to build a teamwork first culture once they draft more young guys.

Toronto is in the play in spots.
@@gabegebeyehu1753 yeah god forbid they lose to the reigning champs
Great point
I’m just glad people are finally taking notice to stephs crazy conditioning.
Ik I never appreciated it before bc I was just so use to it but last year is I really started to take notice cuz defenses were keying on him heavily
playing basketball recently and trying out a Curry type offball shooting drill reminded me how hard is it to be fatigued and still be hitting shots
facts. Stamina is a super underrated skill. Imagine having the stamina of a long-distance runner, while needing the explosiveness and burst of short-distance sprinter, while also being handle the ball, think on the fly, and be able to shoot that accurately for 35-40 minutes. His skillset, it's pretty crazy.
No it's not. There are runners who run over 200 miles in one sitting. Steph runs 2 miles per game. That science on it has already been done. 2 miles is nothing. It is what he does during running the 2miles that is impressive.
@@SimplyOneSound Wrong. It's different to run that much and still be able to shoot accurately with 2 guys trying contest your shot consistently
Sometimes it feels like Nurse has a vendetta against Curry with the way he makes junk and unorthodox defenses to restrict him 😂
Its the ultimate sign of respect. I am okay with your team getting 15 wide open 3s a night if it means you can't shoot
He does it to every star player in the League. He finds a way to try & neutralize the #1 option
Uhhhh. That's his job
You’d hate Steph too if he torched your team regardless of what you do to stop him.
@@P-DAPS He does not. Steph is the only one who he’s thrown that janky box and 1 at. Steph destroyed him rt, and now he’s stuck taking Ls regardless of what numbers Curry’s putting up
I really enjoy every single one of your Steph segment.
Hey JJ, great interview, I think this is one of the few where it would have been great to have been given a bit of your player's intuition. Would love to see more of your talking about the NBA's dynamic situation and yourself truly.
Great Coach. This was amazing interview
Ngl listening to him for 11 mins changed my perception of him as a coach. This was dope and authentic. Thank you
always liked Coach Nurse. He seems like such a regular guy
Man I can watch these all day.
Nick Nurse is a humble person that's why in Raptors fan love him
I love the fact you get current players and coaches in the middle of the season. Or, are these interviews during off-season?
He had gone to Toronto a while back right? I remember seeing the same studio for the siakam interview too
This is a meeting room in the Raptor’s facility
You know it takes like few hours out of their busy schedule for such off the court activity. Yall act as if NBA players and coaches dont have time to breathe in season lol
watch full podcast, he mentioned when this one was recorded
@@Bowditch200 its in the Raptors film room / auditorium
One of my favorite coaches in the league!
Even tho Raptors had a lot of luck to their title run Nick Nurse did a hell of a job coaching them to it . I bet that was a stressful run he and the 2019 raptors got respect from me💯
Awesome 👏 conversation
Steph is the GOAT and Nurse is best coach rn in the nba
Good content. Rare to see this side of the nba
Never knew that he was pretty chill
Clip gave me a chuckle. Quick pump for JJ. love the insight though
U hear it all the time but u gotta actually be there to understand how curry doesn't stop moving!
He is so likeable!
I really enjoyed seeing this side of the NBA. We usually only see coaches yelling and pacing on the sideline.
Bro get Nick Nurse a proper chair, damn 😂😂
Right
Great coach
He’s like the nicest dude in the NBA.
Finchy! Bloody great rep! Iykyk
JJ, you really do a great job….
Nurse is a Doctor when it comes to Basketball coaching!
Dope
JJ, I know you felt nice when Nick was taking about scheming for you sheeeeeeet I would. Das my coach!
Daddy nick is so likeable and it also helps he’s a rockstar and is good on the guitar
The Basketball world seems so large yet is so small sometimes haha 2:55
JJ please get mic stands! 🙏🏾
Great suggestion. It allows the speaker to express themselves the natural way (using their hands). That adds to the depth of communication. 👍🏽
Subbed
That Dr J jumped is sooo cold!
Imagine if Nick Nurse went to Med School...
All of his patients will call him "Doc Nurse" lol
Grandpa jokes
@@Zerocyxone9 it was amazing tho lol
3:18 the Steph talk
thanks
tommy alter looks like he's gonna walk up to my driver side window at a light and ask me for spare change
JJ forgetting he played with Luol Deng his freshman season at duke is hilarious to me for some reason 😂 dude was a BEAST at Duke
best coach in the nba
He's up there, but i don't there is a "best" coach in the league.
@@The614zeke you have one of the best point guards in NBA history....that helps alot. lmfao
it's spo, then nurse, then pop, then kerr
@@The614zeke not everyone, stephen A. Said they were gonna be really good. I thought they would be top 3 in the west
they were a top 5 defense last year, they added lots of good players, and Jordan Poole was gonna get better
@@sequel_R4 Could be. those are most of the guys in the conversation, for sure.
I remember when the dude in the black beanie played a scientist in Phineas and Ferb
As a new fan of the NBA from the UK, I didn't realise that he coached in the UK
Nick Nurse is a top 3 coach
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Should've asked him why he hates Chris Boucher 😂
tough love lol
Bc he’s not good at basketball 😂😂
I was literally thinking about this
Watch raptors games and you'll know why. Boucher can be so bad out there.
@@zsoltszegedi8995 I am a coach. A coaches number one job is to put confidence in their players. 1st to 15th man. Nurse is a great coach but he’s honestly not good at that aspect of the job. Like at all. His post game interviews frequently have him throwing people under the bus.
Damn they couldn’t get Nurse a better chair 💀
What's crazy is that Nick Nurse said there's no game plan for Kevin Durant and that he's harder to defend than Curry. This year's playoffs has shown otherwise. Coaches can get starstruck just like players do. He was afraid to double because KD's 7 foot with a handle. But at the end of the day, he's still not a PG. 5 TOs a game against Boston. Almost unheard of
Boston coach exploited KD glaring weakness he's not a good playmaker plus he knew he had no help
@@tadah21 KD had help he just can't elevate his teammates like guys like steph and lebron can
@@tadah21 kd had no help ok lol not like kyire was shiting the bed with him y’all always do this with kd he has patty mills Bruce brown who played good that series I could agure the nets had equal if not better roster then golden state at least on offense klay didn’t play that well outside of a few games Jordan poole was good in the Denver series but his lack of defense almost made him unplayable in the last 2 rounds and draymond was great on defense Wiggins was great on defense but in consistent on offense at times so just stop
Never knew he coached bbl. Poor guy, that must have been rough.
All those 6s in the back? Mmm Illuminati?
Yo JJ! Get a better chair for your guests bro👍👍 that chair just gives me nightmares😂😂
Idk if JJ knows the part he played in the development of Steph’s game and the whole game with the push off and catch off the screen on the back-pass or the constant movement off ball. JJ was a pioneer
Great coach.
Give this man a better chair lol
666, he’s a beast!
If Klay and KD don’t get injured in that series the Raptors probably won’t have won the championship.
Not and but or
Either one would suffice
No need for both to be healthy
You win some you lose some that's sports and injuries
If kyrie and Kevin love don’t get injured in the 2015 nba finals the warriors probably won’t have won the championship 🤭
@@kevonstrachan7059 if Draymond didn't get suspended and bogut didn't get injured warriors would've won that finals in 2016 stop it
Klay played in 5 of the 6 games.
lol leg crossing was nasty.
Give him a better chair lol. Ya’ll lounging in those arm chairs
How awesome was Kawhi in that playoff run Philly with Jimmy and Joel Milwaukee with Gianns and Golden state with A healthy Steph and Draymond and Klay didn't get hurt until that series was basically over but yet they didn't need KD yeah right.
Won without with with and after but nice try there
Klay missed game 3, part of game 2 and half of game 6. But ye that run was insane tho props to the raps
SHOUT OUT RGV VIPERS
Who’s the Belgian PG they were talking about?
Belgian waffle.
* 🏆.
Nurse talking about scheming against JJ makes me miss his ridiculous "sprint to the corner 3s" on a fastbreak. How.
He’s D’antoni with defense.
Box in one tends to work really well when KD is hurt, then Klay got hurt by a risky foul from Danny Green in mid air.
1) Duh. Nothing works against all three healthy. 2) Klay went down at the end of the 3rd Quarter of game 6. Raptors were only down 5 and already ahead in the series and played box plus 1 before that. Good try though.
Why all the "6s" in the back drop??
Filmed in Toronto.
@@tmgee13really? what does number 6 have to do with Toronto?
It’s a nickname for the city because of the six boroughs that make it up.
@@adamgibson9349 right on . Thanks
Nick nurse with the pinky ring 🤣🤣🖖👏🧑🎤
Every time they say bbl my mind instantly goes to thinking about big booties 🍑🤣
3:24 for the comment
No injuries no chip for this coach
Raptors beat GSW even with Klay playing
By the way Klay played in 5 of the 6 games.... Get a new excuse.
Ok Lebron and Gianni I agree are harder to plan for, but Harden? Lol. That's nuts man. Durant over Curry, not after watching this past post season. People still undervalue Curry
Ur underestimating Prime Harden. Sure he foul baited and what not but he was unstoppable. It was a given Harden is going to score 30 ppg
@@jodo223 except in a playoff game. Curry goes above his season average in the playoffs
Com'on man you all know if Klay didnt go down, It would be a warriors in 7.
And if kyrie and Kevin love wasn’t injured in 2015 nba finals y’all would never won the chip
@@kevonstrachan7059 And if Dray and Bogut weren't out of game 5 (2016) y'all would've never won the chip
Nope. Raptors were only down like 5 pts despite a red hot Klay and the Raptors already beat em twice with Klay.
Klay played in 5 of the 6 games and They STILL got dominated... Raps win that series regardless.
Still has rivalry w steph 🤣
I hope Nick Nurse becomes a coach for the warriors.
A lot more coaches need to be sent to the g league. Like Mike Malone.
Mike malones a great coach L take. He just has a bad team.
Nice comment
Give him a better chair next time JJ.
That strategy against Curry only work without Klay and KD. They were 2-2 vs Curry, Kay, and Green. Won 1 game when Klay didn't played and won another when Warriors were leading before Klay got hurt. It is not going to work now cause Dubs has the bench now.
Exactly
Lol duh! He wouldn’t use this strategy when Klay is on the floor, he would use something else lol. It’s called coaching.
He used a different strategy when Klay was on the floor, it’s called adjustments but the Raptors still won game 1 and game 4 with klay playing and he played most of game 6.
@@adeeltheking123 yeha and the raptors we're losing when klay was in
@@soccerpros5963 Down by 3.. no idea how Raptors could’ve possibly come back from such a huge lead
Nurse never seen anything like the Raptors defensive ability, and to think they woulda got 3-1'd in the Finals by a team missing a quarter of its salary cap til Klay's ACL happened. Klay was having a "Game 6 Klay" game so that's an easy win, and then with 2 wins in a row and all the momentum possible I'd confidently have bet my left nut GS ain't losin G7 after that. Not with the chance to prove that KD can leave and it dint matter, GS still the best bc Steph better than KD(as we've always seen when Draymond healthy).
Well after reading that last sentence your logic tells me Kawhi is better than Steph, and I'll allow it.
You under estimate the Raptors who were playing at HOME and had KAWHI LEONARD... Raps win game 7 even with Klay playing
Jj needs to cut steph some money from all his steph segments
If Klay and KD did not get injured it would of been 4-2 GSW for the win. Not reversed.
Klay played in 5 of the 6 games and in one of those five he played 3 quarters... Klay wasn't changing the series... Raptors win even with Klay playing all games.
klay was out game 3 when steph had 47 and lost stfu
Curry got blown out twice on his home court with no klay and kd
Makes sense theirs no other threats
Go Vipers! Puro 956 lol
the last thing he says, what team was he talking about from 2019 who could do unbelievable defensive changes on the fly?? who's he talking about??
Raptors of course
he… he just can’t give Steph his due
nice guy, he’ll have a future in college coaching
BBL Nurse
Your wild asf😂😂😂😂😂
I was looking for this comment
W
Anybody explain this comment??
People please let it go GS lost against Toronto, whether with or without injuries, ifs or buts it doesn't matter how the lost they lost ●
Yeah and out here people are spreading the idea of Curry choking lol. Opposing coaches does everything they can think of to lock him up.
he's just lucky KD and Klay was hurt during the series....
Klay played in 5 of the 6 games.
Your box n 1 locked curry down
JESUS LOVES YOU! Let him change your life!
Nick's last point about the 2019 team is very poignant. Raptors had a full top 7 (Lowry, FVV, Green, Kawhi, Ibaka, Siakam, Gasol) who were all top tier defensive players, with Norm being no slouch as the 8th man. I don't think we'll see that collection of defensive prowess and intelligence on the floor anytime soon.
The scary thing is the Raps didn't even have OG for that run...and he's one of the premier wing defenders. Boucher is above average too and he just rode the bench. That would've been a 10-deep lineup of elite D. Just insane to think about. I can hardly think of any team that was not only defensively solid top to bottom like they were, but also had the top tiier guys like Kawhi/Gasol etc.....ever. Possibly the best defensive team of all time.
Nick Nurse played Steph? In the finals? ... Nice headline ... LMFAO Who is Nick the Nurse? WHat is his team?
Yo JJ, can you please dont sit like that? My balls hurt when I watch.
I thought bbl was something else
So he is saying there is 5 guys harder to game plan for, lol James harden? Lmao that’s funny
Who’s the Belgian 38 year old ?
I like nick nurse but calling the raptors underdogs to warriors is crazy half there team was injured I understand calling them underdogs with the warriors healthy but we all know if warriors were healthy that’s a 3 peat and I love Kawai but he wasn’t gonna beat a healthy warrior team no way
Well then you got to dismiss a couple of Golden States championships as well. Including their title when they intentionally hurt Kawhi.
@@dontrunhedead lol they were lucky to beat cavs without kd that’s it ... what I told u are facts raptors was great that year when they won it but it’s a fact a healthy warrior team with kd nobody stood a chance and u know this
@@croatiankid6595 no that's literally an opinion.
