If Playoff Murray Doesn't Show up but Jamal does, will he be blamed for a Denver failed repeat?

Your analysis is completely off base.
Murray this regular season averaged more points and assists per 36 than he did last postseason, with the same exact TS%..this is who he is..he just shows that he can sustain that play in higher pressure situations while given more minutes, which is a very desirable trait for any player

Not many if any players are going to average 40mpg in the regular season...if there is any gripe with jamals play in the RS..its injuries.


All stats from THIS regular season are going into the garbage due to the league calling so many touch fouls that it admittedly had to instruct the refs to allow more contact well into the season.

He's always been a gamer, even at Kentucky.
