Jamal Murray is lightning in a bottle. When he catches it there are few things more spectacular, and he caught that lightning tonight in a big way. Murray made 19 of 30 shots on his way to 48 points as the Nuggets clawed back from an 18 point first quarter deficit to defeat the Boston Celtics in Denver. Before the game Jamal talked about learning from Kyrie Irving as they played. Irving was also spectacular in this game, but for tonight the student outshone the master.
Today @chrisadempsey asked Murray about facing Kyrie Irving.
