give me my money yay I don't know if you guys have seen the Tik Tok video shout out to director Tommy from making it rain in studio Jamal Murray got paid the Nuggets agreed to a 4-year 208 million Max contract extension with their star point guard according to ESPN senior Insider Adrien wowski keeping niol jokic's pick and roll partner in Denver through 2029 now the Nuggets locked in their point guard for the future and it keeps their top two guys intact Murray and yic have been teammates since 2016 and brought the Nuggets their first championship in 202 3 now Jamal he averaged a career-high 21 points per game last season now that he's under contract for five more seasons let's check out the top five career plays from Jamal Murray first up at number five listen to this and he gets it to go beating the clock cord length it's intercepted Murray good at the Go got it a big time three that has to be an announcer's dream right right could do Kevin har could read the phone book and would be very true that was number five on to number four do you guys remember his ankle breaker on Stephen Adams in 2018 uh Stephen Adams remembers oh it was like delayed it was a delayed ankle breaker come on I heard it's just watching oh tumble Timber number three his insane layup package in the bubble first the 36 against the Jazz sometimes it's okay to finish with your right hand on the left side I guess you're going to do that basketball for the metals and then the Up and Under versus the Lakers man Kryptonite he's there this is really where he became Jamal Murray is in the bubble yes this is where he emerged now number two in 2019 Jamal goes you guys remember this off the backboard to himself against the Thunder love that I did not remember that see finish about the rim is a nice reminder of the player he came into the league as and of course number one we just witnessed this beats the Lakers at the buzzer in game two of the first round this past year had a few of these to choose from didn't you right the Lakers like there's a whole Jamal versus the Lakers entire encyclopedia Anthony Davis with some pretty damn good defense right there yeah mean that's as good as a close out if you're going to get a guy on the movie it's time to welcome in my brother from another mother joining us here on NBA today what up perk how you doing perk I'm I'm chilling I'm down here in this H Town you know what I'm saying where word about if the storm about to hit or not but hey look I'm happy to see all of y'all what's up Dave what's up Momo I see you in the pink yes sir you know how it is you said you're chilling you must be in AC if you're you're in Houston so clearly uh perk when the lights are the brightest though Jamal Murray surely looks like a max player but it always shocks me when I'm reminded that he has yet to make an allar Star team do you like this deal for both sides I do I I think Denver had no choice but look let me say this the question is is who is Jamal Murray right we know that he's the NBA champion we saw Bubba Jamal Murray we know that he's a great talent but we know what he's not though he's not an all NBA uh caliber player because he hadn't made an all NBA team he's not an allar because he hadn't made an Allstar Jamal Murray is not even even a top 20 perimeter player in the game and when you get paid this amount of money you have to live up to it we saw when Jaylen Brown got paid 300 plus million dollars everyone was saying hey let's see what Jaylen Brown go to do the pressure is on him he lived up to the uh money jayen Bronson although it was 120 when he first signed with the New York Knicks we wanted to see what he was going to do he lived up P he lived that and some now you looking at Jamal Murray I'm looking at him and I'm saying what can you bring to the table without joic being on the floor I'm not saying he's not going to play with jic because obviously yic is reliable but when it comes down to Jamal Murray I think this year he has to take that leap and when it comes down to having pressure especially with Denver losing kcp he is top three on my list for as guys under the most pressure to deliver because we know joic has been consistently great the best player in the league the last three years years we can't say the same about Jamal Murray for as his his greatness and elevating his talent I like elevating that's a good pun for the Denver Nuggets but if you are thinking about Jamaal Murray clearly having a chip on his shoulder after this last Olympics now getting paid a lot of people are going to say be worth that money do you think this team currently constructed people are fearful of the squad T they're afraid of Nicole yic and it was a reminder that we all saw on the world stage at the Olympics where he was incredible um against team USA gave them every fear you could possibly have up 16 in the third quarter they're not afraid of Jamal Mary and Jamal Mary we saw him hit those two gamewinners against the Lakers in the first round I also covered him in the second round in games two and six against the Wolves shoot a combined seven for 36 and they were targeting him on defense because listen we know we can rely on Jamal marry who is he a guy who can make shots in the clutch a guy who is competitive as all get out but what we also know is that his body fails him and there's only been brief moments where he's been able to show how great he can be when he had health on his side guess what not a great second round of the playoffs and even worse summer if we're talking about the Olympics you average six points for Canada shooting 29% Canada went into the Olympics considered one of the favorites to win a medal they come back without a medal well you guys are both definitely in his burn book now not me don't put me in there said stats but look what the nuggets are doing is what they have to do right now which is to bet on the person and not necessarily on the production I mean he has not produced at an all NBA level over the course of an entire season he has not stayed healthy over the course of a whole season I don't think he was healthy in the playoffs I don't think he was healthy in the Olympics I don't think he was healthy all season long like every time I came out to watch the Nuggets Reggie Jackson was playing because Jamal Murray was trying to get healthy for the playoffs and I you know you saw those moments where he looked like he was Jamal Murray for for flashes but then you have the games like you referenced I think he can be a max player well he is a max player but he can live up to this contract if he can get healthy for an entire season but they have to do that they have no choice because of the way they've set themselves up and with the new salary cap rules and they picked up who though because of the health concern Russell Westbrook there you go who plays every game well look ramono you're absolutely right right he has to stay on the floor but with that being said we also have to keep the same energy for him that we do for Anthony Davis that we do for kawhai Leonard that we do for all these guys that we we question you know why can't they stay healthy Jal Murray has to get some of that same energy like I don't know you know a lot of things you can't control when you out there on the floor but again if I'm Jamal Murray I remember when Anthony Davis uh Dave what was it two two years ago when he said I want to play 82 games like he set that barard for himself that's the same thing that Jamal Murray needs to do when he approach this season but but they they they bet on him as a person I mean there have been times in his career where he's been he hasn't been healthy or he hasn't shot the ball well and Michael Malone will just go to the map for this guy keep giving him shots keep giving him because they know how competitive he is they know what kind of what kind of person he is inside and some context I know that goal is really great for a player like Jamal Murray uh 82 games playing that completing an entire NBA season he played 59 out of 82 games this past year he missed 23 he hasn't played in 70 games in a season since 2019 and I know on this conversation we've been talking a lot about he's not at an all-nba level but get this a little bit of trivia for you guys he is one of three players to average 20 points six assists while shooting 40% from three who are the other two players currently in today's game you're saying yeah last season who went 26 nope give me that again 20 points six assists while shooting 40% from three the other two players in that category made all NBA Jamal did not it's LeBron James and uh what's your fav State other than Texas perk your favorite player where are you the mayor of oh I know oh New York big big body Brunson yes a little trivia you guys know I love that than you [Music] [Applause] [Music] [Applause]
