Is that lightning-fast dude who took the towel a part of Nuggets or just a guy in a good "seat" doing his part

Jokic in the post game interview called him out for losing his ****. Good for him

Would be hilarious to watch the Nuggets play without a true point guard in game 3.

Re: Jamal Murray needs to be suspended
The first heat bag thrown on the court was suspension-worthy but Murray might have gotten lucky with just a fine, but after seeing that 2nd towel throw the NBA absolutely has no choice but to suspend him.
What an epic meltdown.

Re: Jamal Murray needs to be suspended
Don't get into the habit of feeding trolls, guys.
That being said, yes it should probably be a game suspension especially with the refs not catching him live and throwing him out. But it will probably just be a retroactive technical/fine or nothing at all. In any case, Murray isn't doing his reputation any favors this way.

He's to throwing stuff what Grayson Allen is to tripping people.

Chucked two things at the ref on the same play. Should definitely be a suspension, but I don't expect it to be.

Re: Jamal Murray needs to be suspended
100% is a suspension.
I dont agree with people saying wolves are better off with him playing. If he gets hot one game he can get the nuggets back in it. with him missing game 3 I don't see anything special happening for the nuggets.

We all deal in hyperbole here, but Murray throughout this game may have legitimately thrown the biggest tantrum we've ever seen in an NBA game. Yeah the offensive foul no-call was really bad, but that's hardly an excuse for all this behavior.

Reggie Jackson may be out too. Do people really think Denver will somehow be better with no point guard and even worse depth?

Re: Jamal Murray needs to be suspended
That's a 1-game suspension, 2 things thrown onto a court which could lead to an injury.
Agreed, I've been a Murray fan for awhile and I was extremely disappointed.

1-game suspension is the minimum (from a Nuggets fan)

Re: Jamal Murray needs to be suspended
It should definitely be a game suspension. Everyone has bad days, but Murray showed a surprising lack of class on multiple occasions today. 1) Constant whining about the refs. 2) Money gesture (What's this even about in this case? NBA rigging the playoffs for that tasty greater Minneapolis metropolitan market?) 3) Overall bad body language. 4) Throwing towel on the floor. 5) Throwing heat pack on the floor. 6) Leaving without comment after the game. After the game was his shot to own up to his behavior and say "I had a terrible game and I was frustrated with some calls. I allowed myself to get in bad head space because of it and did some regrettable things." Instead, he just slunk out the back door.
Hopefully this is a gut check moment for him and he figures out who he wants to be as a person. Because he wasn't impressing anyone today.

At the end of the day, it's not about wins and losses. Teamwork, fair play, and good sportsmanship make champions of us all.
Go arbitrary assortment of athletes! Beat the other arbitrary assortment of athletes or my mood will suffer!

Murray was 2-2 from the sideline and 3-18 from the floor.

I feel as though Murray might be a drug addict. I've never seen this kind of behaviour from a player,
So many people who attain the heights of power in this culture—celebrities, for instance—have to make a show of false humility and modesty, as if they got as far as they did by accident and not by ego or ambition.
