Murray's reputation was completely trampled underfoot.

The performance in this year's playoffs is simply unsightly, averaging only 20.6 points, 4.3 rebounds and 5.6 assists per game, and the shooting rate is as low as 40.2%.

In both series, only 30+ points were scored in the last game, and most of the rest dragged behind.

Especially in the series against the Timberwolves, Murrayla arrived at home, averaging 18.4 points, 4.1 rebounds and 4.4 assists per game against a strong defense, shooting 40% and 33% from the field.

In the duel with Huazi, Murray was suppressed both offensively and defensively, and he was 9 out of 30 in the face of the former's defense; Conversely, Huazi was 14-of-19 under Murray's defense.

Throughout the series, Huazi averaged 27.7 points per game and shot 50% from the field.

It is also worth mentioning that ESPN recently exposed a piece of the past.

In the first round of the playoffs last year, the Nuggets easily eliminated the Timberwolves in five games.

After exiting the game, Hanako and several teammates borrowed alcohol to kill their worries at the bar, and Murray, who was in the limelight, happened to also walk into the bar.

Murray was dismissive of the gang and taunted Conley.

Not to be outdone, Huazi shot back: "We will find the field back, and you will see us again." ”

As it turns out, Huazi did what he said, personally leading the team to revenge the Nuggets in this year's playoffs, and personally making Murray pay for his arrogant remarks.

Of course, revenge on the Nuggets isn't the Timberwolves' ultimate mission this season, and they're making great strides toward a championship.

Conley, a 36-year-old veteran who was mocked by Murray, asked the team before the start of this year's playoffs: "Brothers, help me win the championship, while I still have gas." ”

Conley has accumulated 18 assists and no turnovers in the last three games, becoming the third player in NBA playoff history to achieve this statistic.

A successful team not only needs young people to charge into the field, but also veterans to stabilize the morale of the army.

Straight to the point.

It can be seen from the above that the current Murray, both in terms of ball skills and character, has been greatly questioned, and the call for the Nuggets to trade him is getting louder and louder.

But so far, there has been no indication that the Nuggets intend to drop Murray.

According to salary expert Marks, Murray is eligible to sign an early contract extension with the Nuggets this summer and can sign a new four-year, $208.5 million contract.

If he signs a contract extension next year and is named to the All-Star team next season, Murray could theoretically get a five-year, $318 million super-max contract.

It is not ruled out that the Nuggets will renew Murray's contract, but the latter basically does not have the possibility of taking $318 million over five years because he does not have the strength to be selected to the All-Star team.

In all his years of career, Murray has never been named to the All-Star team, nor has he been selected as an All-Star, and his toughest honor so far is the '23 championship ring.

To put it simply, Murray is not even an ordinary All-Star, where does he have the ability to sign a super maximum salary.

Besides, if the Nuggets really give Murray $318 million for five years, they will close the door to winning the championship themselves.

In fact, the Nuggets can find a better outside core than Murray, and there are a lot of people who are willing to partner with Mr. Yoo.

For example, Brunson, who shined in this year's playoffs and entered the free market next year as soon as Murray, and Venom, etc.

Brunson averaged 32.4 points and 7.5 assists per game, almost single-handedly leading the Knicks to overturn the Emperor's Philadelphia in the first round, and lost seven games with the Pacers in the second round.

Although there are still many years in the peak period of Teacher Yoo, there is no year that can be wasted at will.

In order to be able to return to the top of the mountain as quickly as possible in the future, maybe the Nuggets management has reached the time when it is not broken!
