Obviously Jamal Murray has been out for that stretch but this is still not what you wanna see from the reigning champs. Should the Nuggets be concerned about their early season play?

    Of course they are. This is like people commenting on the Suns and thinking Booker wouldn’t make the team better.

    Obviously the Joker is the best player, but they lose outside scoring and playmaking with Murray. Hes a super important player to the team. You take the second best player off of most teams for an extended period - and teams don’t do well.

    Good. Hopefully this is weakness and we can sneak a win in.

    I’d blow it up. We’ll take any of the starters for Evan Fournier.

    Murray is so underrated for what he does, his reg szn numbers aren’t eye popping but his ability to create for himself and others is needed

    They’ll be fine. Championship hangover, Murray’s down. If Murray’s back and they’re still assing it up around game 40 then I’d go ahead and panic.

    9th in Ortg 10th in Drtg and an SRS of 4.86. They can contend with those numbers but you’d like to see SRS above 5 and the Ortg to improve. Still a lot less to worry about then the Bucks who are 21st Drtg and SRS of 3.84, you can’t win a chip with those numbers.
