Re: Friday 3/3 NBA Game Thread
Nuggets need to find Jokic more on offense, you can see that Memphis is struggling on the board which is perfect for Jokic to exploit.

If one of those are the Lakers vs Minny I can tell you that that's not a great game. It's a game of who is worst at playing basketball.

Murray doesn't suck. Talk about overreaction.

I agree and have said that repeatedly. I think there's a great chance they go out Round 1 to the Lakers.
Dude we're not even in the play in yet lol.

Win or lose, Clippers look a heck of a lot better tonight (on a back to back) than they did last night against Golden State

I shoulda been more clear. 4 competitive games going on right now, with each one having playoff implications.

Murray threw up a prayer and some how it got answered.

Re: Friday 3/3 NBA Game Thread
I do think when healthy MPJ is an ideal #3 option for this Denver team. His skill set just fits perfectly with Jokic.
I’m still not sold on Murray being a #2 option. And to be clear, this isn’t just a hot take for me based off this game, I’ve been pretty vocal on this for quite sometime. Murray has never even sniffed an all star game and that is playing alongside arguably the best facilitator in the game. If things don’t workout in these playoffs, if I were Denver I would try and use Murray and use all the possible 1st round picks to get a true #2 option.

He doesn't "suck", but he's probably the worst second best player out of all playoff teams right now.

Mike Malone has got to be one of the very worst coaches in the NBA.

4 players have more shots than your MVP. He’s still at 5 shots. Jamal Murray is 4/11…

Kuminga has just straight up bodied Ingram all day long on and off the ball. Dude has just locked him up.

Bubble Murray was hitting those contested stepbacks and layups 24/7. When he is hot he is unstoppable. When he is not it hurts. He is like Middleton on crack.

I know all the risks involved, but i woulda liked to see them make a play for Kyrie. Man he'd be perfect as a 2nd option on that squad
