Tiny sample size but Murray is now 4-0 starting at PG, and I don't think it is a fluke. For some strange reason the more minutes he plays the better he does, and even if he is not scoring a ton like he did tonight he always seems to find a way to positively affect the game.

Can you imagine the team being built around our young back court and Jokic and what they could do if they hit levels like the last few games Nelson has been out every night? Man this team has some really big potential, even when it felt like Mudiay had a bad game he still found ways to be a positive.

You know it is strange that I have to remind myself that Jokic is a 22 year old 2nd year NBA player. He never seems to have those mistakes like some of his passes were tonight, so when he does I get a little irritated and then you realize that 2 years ago he was in Europe at this time.

Let not forget the core of this team, Jokic is 22, Murray is 19, Harris is 23, Mudiay is 21 and we haven't even scratched the surface of Hernangomez and Beasley, both of whom have some serious untapped potential.

I would like to see Butler on this team next season at some point.

That's the youth core....The radioactive nuclear core is Faried, Chandler, Gallo, Arthur.
