Jamal Murray has always been slept upon by the league. Even after the great run he had in the bubble, fans didn’t give him the correct recognition he deserved. But instead, doubted him for his abilities and skills. But now lately his performances have been waking up a lot of fans and he’s getting somewhat of the recognition he deserves. And, now Jamal Murray has started to speak for himself as he wants to be respected.
Jamal Murray is a one-of-one talent but due to being with the Denver Nuggets which is a small market team. A lot of his greats and even the team’s greats aren’t given the correct coverage they deserve and go untalked and unnoticed. And, even the team knows it as they expressed their disagreement towards this behavior after going up 2-0 against the LeBron James-led Los Angeles Lakers in the Western Conference Finals.
So far in the post-season Jamal Murray clowning his opponents and putting up the needed numbers is averaging: 27.2 points, 5.5 rebounds, 6.2 assists, 1.6 steals, and 0.3 blocks per game. He’s on the best playoff run of his career so far and even has a real shot at the NBA title. And, after the Game 2 dub against the Los Angeles Lakers, he demanded the fans respect him.
As after dropping 37 points, 5 assists, and 10 rebounds against the Los Angeles Lakers, in the 108-103 closely contested dub. Jamal Murray made an understandable statement, where he quoted: “I don’t think I get enough respect as I should be. I’m better than a lot of players in the league.” He’s not wrong in saying that as he is yet to be recognized for his talents. He isn’t the best guard in the league but his deep bag of skills will surely make him claim that spot in the near future. And, it’s high time for the genuine basketball world to bring Jamal Murray up in the conversations with the correct respect.
Can Jamal Murray lead the Denver Nuggets past the LeBron James-led Los Angeles Lakers?
Jamal Murray and the Denver Nuggets are up 2-0 against the LeBron James-led Los Angeles Lakers. And, history is favoring them to get a trip to the NBA Finals. As the Denver Nuggets are 6-0 when they are 2-0 in a seven-game series. But now Game 3 and 4 would be played at the Crypto.com Arena where the Lakers are yet to lose a game this postseason run.
2×MVP Nikola Jokic is on a historical run this post-season and is even clowning the Los Angeles Lakers, as Jamal Murray backs him up. But they still have to do a better job on the defensive end, as they are yet to stop the offensive rallies of the Los Angeles Lakers.
And, if LeBron James and Anthony Davis get going the road would be quite tougher for the Nuggets to advance. But the chances are real and they are just two games away from making it to the 2023 NBA Finals.
