Murray going superstar to save us

A one man show in the second quarter. 20 of our 30 points.

I don't understand how we can be so bad at wide open 3s

It’s so strange. Harris shot 40+% 2 years in a row and has regressed badly. Grant was 38% this year and 39% last year and has fallen off a cliff this series. I know they expend a lot of energy on defense but it’s absurd.

We desperately need a knockdown shooter or another PG so Murray can get open looks off ball. Morris is good and plays smart but gives up a lot of size and has a pretty flat arc on his shot in general. Jrue Holiday would’ve been perfect

[beastlyskronk]

So does Grant just want me to talk bad about him to get hot? Seriously though, he looked a lot more composed on those last 2 shots.

This is nerve racking. Jokic can’t afford to sit too long but with 4 fouls you can’t just leave him out there. Murray and the rest of the guys really have to step up while he’s on the bench. This 8 point lead can evaporate quickly

I agree. It's tough...slow down and eat the clock a bit with Joker out or keep the pressure on?

[beastlyskronk]

Ok Jamal Murray

[the0rangecrush]

Gotta put Jokic back out now right?

[the0rangecrush]

It's crazy how off the offense is without Jokic. It's basically Jamal being incredible, and the occasional MPJ bucket

[beastlyskronk]

The defense had a great run there to start the quarter. With Jokic having 4 fouls they’re going to attack him hard and either force him to foul or let them score.

I think it has to do with how dependent they are on the Jokic dribble hand offs. Plumlee just isn’t anywhere near good enough at screening or passing to replicate it

[beastlyskronk]

Not sure why Malone called a timeout there

[beastlyskronk]

That was cold blooded

[the0rangecrush]

Jamal is a different breed under bright lights

[the0rangecrush]

Yeeeesssss this team

[Blondie79]

Let's goooooooooo
