Grateful Dead, Star Wars. No-fascism zone.
Still at the old place (same handle) but weaning off.

Jamal Murray postgame:
"We're only getting better. As guys went down, more guys are stepping up and having confidence to play. The 2nd unit looks great, and we're moving the ball."
On what he'll do over the #Nuggets' 3-day break:
"As little as possible."

MAGIC JOKIC ✨🃏
More playmaking wizardry from Nikola Jokic, as he spins into the lane and delivers and AMAZING no-look behind-the-back pass to Peyton Watson on the baseline cut for the layup

Jamal Murray drains the DEEP triple over Jock Landale, then 2 possessions later drives and dishes an INCREDIBLE no-look, behind-the-back wraparound assist to Zeke Nnaji in the corner for another three

On the other hand... it's the hands...
Zeke Nnaji makes an excellent first effort to pull down this rebound, but as we've seen all too many times, he just can't hang onto the ball.

-Murray drives baseline for the crafty layup
-Then Mal drops a triple in transition after a great Peyton Watson rebound

Alperen Sengun should have gotten a technical foul for this egregious FLOP
Jonas Valanciunas makes the push shot anyhow

One of the best, craziest passes of Nikola Jokic's career - and that's saying a lot, w/ his resume - but Bruce Brown fails to convert it into an assist, missing the corner 3.
