I have used Sports Illustrated as my personal Nuggets blog for nearly a year now. Before this season, I picked Denver as my surprise team in the West, predicting a Conference finals berth. (I then doubled down and picked them to make the Finals.) I also predicted Jamal Murray would win Most Improved Player—floating out that the Nugs may have the third-best backcourt in the conference by season’s end. I feel much better about all these absurd prognostications after Monday, when Murray went off for 48 points in a thrilling 115–107 win for #NuggetsHive over the Celtics.
It’s Not Too Late to Hop on the Jamal Murray Bandwagon
