That looks like the ball game by Monk.

Jokic played 38 minutes and was a +13 in those minutes...Denver loses by 6. Such a typical Nuggets game.

Mavs were missing 5 players, and their only 2 other PGs, Luka had to play 46 minutes, and the minutes that Dexter Dennis (G league player, undrafted) and OMax (also G-league Mavs late 1st rd pick) were rough.

MPJ/Murray combined 66m on the payroll. Nuggets are lucky if they both play more than half the season

Neither missed a playoff game last year? That's when it matters

The Nuggz are good tho and so are the Kings.

OKC as well, but better than Dallas.

The other 3 teams were playoff teams, not Dallas

Do the math.

Houston is going to be 0-8 on the road after this one, but if you ask me (and you didn't), the NBA has done them no favors by having the fewest games in the league. Some teams have played 3-4 more games. I still don't have a good feel for their squad yet. I'd like to see them go on an East Coast road trip. So many games against Warriors, Lakers, and Nuggets already.

Not something you can bank on. They both have pretty bad injury track records historically.

66m is ABSURD between the two. That 2020 run really inflated Murrays value.

Also want to say that Shai gets plenty of love for his offense but not enough recognition for his defense. He has been playing great defense all year and plenty of crunch time steals and blocks including the one tonight. Great 2way player.

I've never seen a coach-player double tech before.
