It’s insane how the moment Murray got hurt the supporting cast instantly regressed back to 21/22 levels
Guys like MPJ and Gordon just aren’t capable of ball handling to the level necessary to be the “next man up” without Murray
Survive the Jokic minutes and destroy their bench!
Perfect strategy
Compared to the 2021-2022 team, this team is not well equipped at all for a Jamal Murray absence. Even though the overall talent on this team clears, there’s just no offensive creation outside of Jokic. That team at least had guys that could make stuff happen like bones, will, Monte, and even boogie. Need Jamal back ASAP
He is singlehandedly preventing this from being a blowout from the get-go. I’m terrified of Jokic. With respect to Giannis, Luka, KD, whoever else is being talked about rn - this man is the best player on the planet rn and he’s doing it surrounded by, um, less than stellar help with Murray out.
I expect more from MPJ, AG and KCP this is dogshit complacency
