He's going to need to be passing a lot more to beat his record of fastest triple double. Only 5 assists so far.

The Lakers reality haven't played that badly.  That was an incredible half from the Nuggets.

I suppose 19, 16, and 7 is a pretty solid half.

Jamal Murray did to the Lakers what Klay used to be able to do but couldn't last series. Make them pay when they play bad pick and roll defense.

Murray can be really hot/cold but had a great first half.  He's also better off the dribble than Klay so when he's cooking good luck.  He can get quality looks and create open space.

I disagree with this narrative that Jokic isn't fun to watch.  The guy is incredibly skilled.

Can you imagine Jokic and Curry getting to play together?

Wow....that would be insane.  Jokic is a much better athlete than I think most people realize.  I get he doesn't have hops but he can do everything and has good quicks.

Was that a shrug by Jokic?

Imagine having an MU 8 man rotation with: 

Jokic
Antetokounmpo
Tatum
Curry
James
Davis
Murray
Wemby

Agreed. Great adjustment.

Foul trouble started to get to Denver at the end too. Don't think they'd have survived an OT if it got there.

Also, this will be a tough series. Davis has been playing like his old MVP caliber self. When he plays like he has been, he's one of the best in the league and is dominant. His impact on the defensive end is insane.

It was a very good adjustment but I think Nikola will be fine if they stick with that.  The bigger issue is how the Nuggets guard high screen and roll.  Murray's defense was a unmitigated disaster.  Why the autoswitch?

  murray was listed as very questionable and quite possibly have to sit this game out dip sh!t racist

i was following very closely trying to pick my fanduel team.  they took his injury status right up to the limit before announcing he would play.  then my reasoning for NOT taking him is, well if he is that questionable, what kind of performance can one expect out him...well, i'd really like to know what his ailment was because their trainers, psychologists and drugs allowed him to go off for 31 pts, 5 red 5 asst & 3 steals
