Jamal is all about the playoffs. I await the arrival of Medal-Round Murray. That dude is a beast.

Anyone know what Jamal's injury/injuries are? It's like he can't even make a simple move anymore.

he could have gotten a tech and clearly fouled the guy again and again so I think you mean that's the officiating we need

Tech for what? He hit a nice floater that's the play I meant

The way he's moving, may be better to use Murray as a small ball 4 on defense against some of these teams. At least the guy seems to be able to use his size to body up people

He always looks a bit baked to me.

Anyone else feel like Barrett is the soul of this team?

He's had a lack of burst in his game since the playoffs.

He had a calf injury in the playoffs and still isn't moving right.

RJ making FTs is great news

WaltFrazier · Post #957 » by **WaltFrazier** » Sat Jul 27, 2024 8:39 pm

Murray's playing better and working hard, not sure about the criticism here

Tha Cynic · Post #958 » by **Tha Cynic** » Sat Jul 27, 2024 8:39 pm

These refs are calling everything. Just play bully ball with RJ

Knee issues. He’s had multiple surgeries on them at this point. He can’t really workout in the summer, he plays into shape during the regular season.

Seems like a chronic ailment at this point.
