The NBA's Most Unstoppable Play: Murray and Jokic 2-Man Game

Jokic and Murray are a dangerous duo because they're both scorers and playmakers in every court. Specifically, if Jokic is a playmaker, then Murray becomes a scorer; and if Murray is a playmaker, then Jokic becomes a scorer. It is almost impossible for opponents to stop them when they changed their duty of a playmaker each other. That is no wonder Denver Nuggets won.

Quintessential duos: 90’s Jordan and Pippen (or stockton malone) 00’s Shaq and Kobe 10’s Splash brothers 20’s Joker and Jamal

This action will become even more deadly when Murray cools off a bit and stops trying to hero ball. The couple of plays where he hit KCP or MPJ once he and Jokic collapse the paint are such beautiful basketball. Once he starts making that extra pass consistently (after he makes some shots to force that reaction), the nuggets offense will really start going because both Murray and Jokic can start really punishing defenses for collapsing on them in the paint. Also allows so much more confusion with Jokic rolling to the elbow after a screen than there already is.

Jokic is honestly my favorite player of the last decade or so he plays big right and he is freakishly patient

I like this video, thank you, you made me significantly more optimistic about the Murray-Jokic partnership by highlighting strengths I didn't know Mal had as much as he did. I have been so frustrated sometimes watching him play iso ball with Jokic standing right there ready to make a play or at least put up a much better shot, to instead see Murray take a 40-45% contested 2 after overdribbling. If he can play like he did in the last 2 or 3 games of the Suns series consistently I have nothing to worry about then, especially after watching this and realizing just how strong of a 1 2 punch they are together.

Just watching Murray sharply change running speed and direction hurts my ankles

well thats the reason why they are no 1 seed in the west, nuggets is all about teamwork every body has the green light to shoot . no superstar ego to contend with, have an nba elite player that is a willing passer and the persistent to stay with their core to reach this high no shortcuts!! i hope nuggets win the title so that jokic and murray can cemented their legacy as one of the nba greats just like what giannis did!

Its fun how a majority of Basketball youtubers talk the same way.

The Joker never seems to be in a hurry.

I love this channel

They used to do it a lot more back in the day. Don't get me wrong they run it moderately nowadays but it's just so much more effective straight up giving Jokic the ball... it's either a bucket or a dime. Murray iso is better too simply because he's always gonna be 1 on 1 with all the talent on the floor.

Just awesome.

You should have a greater following. Great job. Thank you for this. 😊
