Murray has been a very good player throughout the season, but in the playoffs he’s looked like a bonafide star.
Coming into today’s contest, he’s averaging 27.1 points while making a scorching 49.1 percent of his 3-pointers in 14 postseason games.
Denver took a two-point lead at the end of a high-scoring first quarter, then proceeded to fall behind early in the second quarter as James and company started to flex their muscles.
