This is a preseason game, maybe the approach is different, and by looking at the highlight of this play, no one in Denver uniform would like to take the two, they want to end this game with a game-winner, hopefully, this doesn't happen in the regular season as it's so dumb to trust the 3 than a high percentage shot.
Believe it or not, that was an actual game last season. In the post fight interview, coach Malone even said he didn't know what happened This is a preseason game, maybe the approach is different, and by looking at the highlight of this play, no one in Denver uniform would like to take the two, they want to end this game with a game-winner, hopefully, this doesn't happen in the regular season as it's so dumb to trust the 3 than a high percentage shot.
When I look back at that play, Murray could have pushed the ball, drive to the lane and maybe get a foul for a three-point play instead of stopping on a 2 on 1 break. If that was Kobe on the ball, he would have dunked that.
Murray doesn't have the mamba mentality so he would never do that, they rely too much on their 3 point shooting so their first decision is just to shoot threes rather than driving to the rim and dunk the ball, anyway, players are just human, they also make mistake and what's important is that Murray has become a superstar, he just has to stay healthy so the Nuggets this season will be a more competitive team.
