If Murray plays like this Denver wins this series easy

He was cold in the first half but is red hot now. 7 straight makes.

Man, the Nuggets about to pull a Celtics tonight. What the heck was that inbounding debacle by Porter?

Murray now with 28pts on 10-23 FG going 6-14 from 3PT. 5 assists, 4 steals and 9 rebounds for good measure.

Make that 30pts 11-24 FG.

Yes if Murray can score into the low 30s with Jokic giving 25 + with triple doubles, they will be hard to beat.  But everyone left in the playoffs has been inconsistent.

What a move to lose LeBron by Jokic but LeBron strips him at the last moment. How many strips does LeBron have today? 4-5 strips in the paint to deny easy paint finishes. LeBron is like Karl Malone down there. Hands of steel.

Tremendous win by Denver.

Scrapped it out despite not playing well for large parts of the game. Jokic brilliant Q1-Q3 and Murray finishes them off in Q4.

Am I gonna have to read the same nonsense I did after game 1 of how the lakers figured out the nuggets and are in the drivers seat? Would really be nice if people could get off the lakers hype train on a Celtics forum. Also is there any debate Lebron has really fallen off?
