Today, according to the well-known journalist Wo Shen revealed: Nuggets player Murray has obtained permission from the team doctor, he can come back, but the decision is in his own hands. Today's Nuggets and Warriors playoffs Murray watched the team lose on the sidelines, and he looked dignified. He knows the team needs him. The question is, is it really worth it to make a comeback at this juncture?
Averaging 21+4+5 per game, he is an incredibly talented scorer
Although Murray is young, he shows mature offensive skills and a sophisticated mentality, and he is a scorer and a killer. When he was healthy last season, Murray averaged close to 21+4+5 per game and shot more than 40 percent from three-point range. In the playoffs two years ago, Murray's performance was impressive. He scored high scores again and again, scoring difficult goals again and again. Murray is a scoring genius, and due to serious injuries, Murray has not played a single game in the regular season this season. Even though the Nuggets achieved the sixth best result in the West under Jokic, the Nuggets knew from top to bottom that the Nuggets were completely uncompetitive to rely on the teacher alone. May be eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.
Indispensable to the team, Jokic is difficult to support alone
Today's game against the Warriors also confirms this conjecture. The Nuggets were passive on the road, with them at a disadvantage from the second half of the second quarter. Both offensively and defensively they are behind the Warriors, especially on the offensive end. Jokic scored 25 points on the pitch, but he was caught in the middle of a siege. Offensive efficiency is somewhat ineffectual, shooting less than 50% from the field. Another player on the team who scored 20 points was Barton, but Barton's form was not stable. His offensive stability is completely heavenly and earth compared to Murray's. Only by relying on Barton's explosion to discover gold, there is still no chip to duel with the Warriors.
A comeback is risky, and the playoffs return to a difficult state
Murray definitely wants to return to playing, but the reality is harsh. A comeback at this stage is not necessarily the best outcome for two reasons. First, Murray has experienced a serious injury, and the risk of playing the highest intensity playoffs as soon as he returns is very high. Thompson has also experienced a major injury this season, and it took him at least two months to get into form. Murray just returned to playoff status to find another way to find. Will his presence become a defensive loophole, will he hurt the team again and again? It would be better not to come back.
Second, the Nuggets' current state of competition can be seen by discerning people, the probability of winning the championship is minimal, and from the perspective of wanting to win the championship, this kind of regression is completely unnecessary. If the injury worsens as a result, it can be troublesome. Durant is the best example, and Murray should never have a recurrence of an old injury.
In short, the decision is in Murray's own hands. Whether Murray wants to play or not is up to him. From a bystander's point of view, Murray should give up this season. The Nuggets have experienced serious injuries this season, and it is difficult for them to stand out in the West even if they eliminate the Warriors by their teachers. The Nuggets are not as good as looking to the future, and Murray polished his body through the offseason to get back in shape. Next season, if the Nuggets can keep all of them healthy and make some reinforcements, they may become a championship-level strong team. This is the result that the Nuggets want to see.
