Jamal Murray despite the loss: 39/8/6 on 12⁄26 FG
https://www.espn.ph/nba/boxscore/_/gameId/401810717
39 points
8 rebounds
6 assists
12⁄26 FG, 7⁄13 3PT
God those 3 straight 3s in OT had me stressing. Just crazy shots at the end there.
Nah nothing he could have done was gonna tie or win the game. Too little time to make up a 8 pt game.
Yeah but if we didn’t make all of our fts in OT it could have been a different story
He tried to pull a Nesmith
Picked the right day to hit our freethrows too bad it was close because we couldn’t hit our 3’s lol
except they had like no time for a comeback
yeah wouldn’t mind seeing that highlight even though game was pretty much over by then
Denver Nuggets 12⁄26 🎁
That’s a solid stat line but man, 12⁄26 feels like a lot of shots to get there.
Having the month first is insane
Those 3 clutch 3 pts were fucking crazy
Clutch is a stretch. They were garbage time 3’s. I guess that doesn’t take away from the difficulty but the game was out of reach by the time the 2nd one went in even if OKC missed all their FT’s.
I mean. 1 missed free throw and an inbounds steal and they are very much in that game.
5 points with 16 seconds left when the second one went in. Denver had no time outs. It was over.
Bubble Murray-esque
Those weren’t even good attempts but damn it felt inevitable.
He’s such a baller! :) One of the scarier dudes to watch against ur team itl when he’s got it going imho
9 pts in essential garbage time
Yeah but those last few buckets kept the game from being a total blowout at least.
But Jokic has no good team mates!! He plays with bums!!!!
this narrative died in the offseason… did you just start watching basketball yesterday or something?
It appears jokic might be making the nuggets worse based on their record since he got back and his poor efficiency
He was a +15 tonight, Cam Johnson on the other hand…
Jokic fan boys always need a scapegoat to distract from their guy shooting 36% from the field
How’s Embiid working out? I dont like to put down other players but since u got half a braincell all is fair. We were handily winning the jokic minutes, he had a bad game but he was good offensively even despite his shooting and actually played decent defence
He’s been off shooting pretty bad since his returning, but he wasn’t the problem tonight. Cam Johnson was fed a wide open 3 to win the game and bricked it.
Jokic bricked like 3 3s at the end of the 4th that lost them the game
But as soon as he gets double digit points rebounds and assists it absolves him of any responsibility and he can no longer be criticized
Triple double = clearly the MVP
30/10/10 is hypothetically better than 50/9/9, didn’t you know?
Triple doubles ruined nba discourse imo
It’s not absolving him of criticism it’s the fatigue of “gotcha” moments by players who are in the SGA camp or Jokic camp always look to put the other player down. Like both players were pretty inefficient for their standards tonight and yet both players were clearly the best player on their teams.
Ummm jokic wasn’t? Murray carried once again
Reaches over 11,000 career points
He had 39??? People need to stop hating this guy, he’s one of the best playoff risers and closers we’ve seen. A regular season loss to OKC doesn’t change that fact
Who hates him?
Laker fans at least should hate him.
Who hates Murray lol
Jokic glazers lol
Lakers fans loathe him lol
I’m a lakers fan, I just fear him. I got a little ptsd from the end of OT.
Someone must’ve told him he was playing the Lakers in that last minute 😭😭
They gave the fatass all the credit for the Nuggets Championship run but this man was just as important
For just a second, I thought he was gonna win them the game there at the very end.
Fortunately our guys hit their free throws but damn, 3 consecutive 3s in that situation is impressive
Bro can’t win with that traffic cone Jokic
Jamal can’t win with these cats
With the flu btw
Dude went ultra instinct in the last minute of OT
My guy was stat padding in overtime, really could’ve used those shots sooner lol
Trade Jokic and get this killa some help. He’s the real closer on the team
Best player in Denver
Jokic is carrying straight up bums man
Garbage time buckets
Bro couldnt miss to close the game. Great player.
Nearly brought us back from elimination.
He went beast when we needed him least. Love you Jamal but hit those threes before the game’s over next time.
He wasn’t getting the ball you were using Jokic and Cam too much in the ot period
