@Cyber Bully Can you name your top 10 please, I am really interested because if you dont think two underrated teams with their two best players of that series going back to back dropping 50+ and coming back from a 3-1 deficit is not top 10 playoff duels I dont know what is
This is the best basketball I've ever watched, I didn't get to watch Lebron (in his prime) or Kobe or Jordan. In this series Donovan Mitchell achieved the 3rd highest points in a single playoff game in NBA history, behind only Michael Jordan and Elgin Baylor. At the same time Jamal was doing 360 layups and dropping 40+ near every game.
Exactly! Lol. Murray was happy just winning one game. Mitchell has his sights on the whole series. You clown Mitchell off the court, he’ll clown you on it.
Our team was down bad but the bench reacted. If anything, they were focused on the defensive possession and used to the hustle plays of Jamal and Craig all season
jamal needs to learn how to get to the line more and help his team out by getting the opposing teams in the penalty and placing whoever guards him in foul trouble just like Don does
The last time that at least one player from two opposing teams drop at least 50 pts was the 2001 ECSF between raptors and sixers. I believe the rivalry then was Vince carter vs the answer Allen iverson. Probably one of the best 7 game series with two players going at each other and in the zone 💥
U cant compare mitchell to tatum i love both players but they play different type of franchise players mitchell & tatum > joel embiid's son ben simmons
They combined for a 101 points and they are only 23 years of age just let that sink in 😳 the future of the nba 50 is goin to be the new norm kinda like 30 is today and that’s insane
Gary Harris works well with Murray. Cant see Mitchell not. Mitchell can facilitate too but since they got Conley back he is more involve now in his scoring strength.
@@HowlitzerPaul Yeah. But the point is having Murray and Mitchell in the same team. Mitchell average above par for a 2 spot in assist. And Murray for a 1 spot is at average in assist. It is like seeing other version of Lillard and Mccollum.
James Giles Not sure which play you’re referring to, but in general Malone doesn’t involve him in the offense hardly at all when he’s a scoring specialist, he’s not in the NBA for his defense
@@zachbaquiran7796 The thing with that is, the way he staggers their minutes, only 2 out of those 3 guys are on the floor at one time, Malone should have close to no issues including him with the primary ball handler
d c I know, I’m not opposing the two, it’s just maddening to have a player who reads plays so well in offense but who doesn’t switch/help on simple plays that the Jazz has been running for years.
You can tell Murray cares more about his stats. He didn’t have to shoot that three at the end. What was the point? It was mathematically over. Bogus but shoutout to Donovan for getting another REAL 50 piece
Why wouldn’t you jack up a 3 to give yourself a 50 piece if the game is already over?? It’s a personal accomplishment, that most people will never get the chance to do. Why not?
@LaRue Mathis It has nothing to do with his work ethic, he just wasn't born with the Athleticism and agility like the other players in the league. He can't be out there consistently without a shot blocker protecting him
@@lonelythreat Na man there's a certain level of Atheltisicm that people are born with and most players in the league are supreme athletes and have great cardio. Jokic dominates off of pure skill and basketball I.Q. but he's not agile enough to switch on screens, rotate to shooters and block shots
