Jokic and Murray are 'the best tandem in the NBA', says Denver coach Adelman
""Fifty-three from your point guard and 23, 21, 19 from your center. Just outrageous numbers from the best tandem in the NBA," Adelman said. "They really are the history book of this franchise when it comes to the longevity together, and also the playoffs and all these wars they've been through in a basketball sense, it's just super special.""
""How we both started, the path that we had, from nobody to somebody into a championship - and still growing and still performing," Jokic said."
""I feel like our best chemistry is when we're not [both playing well]. Sometimes he's having a rough day and I'll pick up the slack, and then there's days when I'm not doing anything and he takes over. There's not tug-of-war with the ball; there's no animosity of who's shooting it," Murray added."
""I think when you look at the record, sometimes the record isn't the truth, but it is," coach Jason Kidd said. "That's what our record is.""
Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray combined for an impressive performance, leading the Denver Nuggets to a 142-135 victory over the Dallas Mavericks. Murray scored a season-high 53 points, while Jokic contributed 23 points, 21 rebounds, and 19 assists. This marked the first instance in NBA history where a player scored 50 points and another had at least 15 points, 15 rebounds, and 15 assists in the same game. The Nuggets improved to 46-28, while Dallas suffered its fifth consecutive loss, dropping to 23-50 overall.
