00:00Big night in Denver for the Nuggets.
00:03They beat the Blazers 132-121.
00:07Joker had his 25th triple-double of the season last night,
00:12but the big performance was Jamal Murray.
00:15Double nickels, 55, a career high for Jamal Murray
00:20everywhere on Altitude Sports.
00:22He's trying to extend their win streak.
00:24Murray pulls up.
00:26Bam!
00:27And Jamal Murray with 53, though.
00:31For CB, Murray missed Jokic.
00:35Murray in on Simons, a little far away.
00:37That's good.
00:3855.
00:41That's crazy.
00:42Honestly, if I had a double nickel,
00:44I wouldn't even wear clothes.
00:46I'd just walk right in Times Square naked and be arrested.
00:50It's just a double nickel, a 55 burger.
00:53That's just, honestly.
00:56That's no joke.
00:58I remember we had a talk a couple weeks ago,
01:00like what happened to this guy?
01:01He's had such a quiet year.
01:03He's picked it up recently.
01:04He's starting to get, must be getting healthy
01:07because he's really started to get things cooking.
01:10Here he is, gives all the credit to his teammates
01:13for the big performance.
01:14It looks like they all signed the ball
01:15and gave it to him, too.
01:16Nice job.
01:18It means everything.
01:19You know, it's not obviously I shot the ball well,
01:22but no, they're looking, hunting for me to get the ball
01:25and really rooting for me to go get it.
01:27And obviously I've been here my whole career.
01:28So just seeing all the same faces
01:31and being in Denver, you know,
01:35just making the most of the moment.
01:36And, you know, I've been here for nine years.
01:40So like I said, you know, it's just,
01:43for me, it's just years of chemistry with those guys
01:46and they know me, I know them.
01:48And tonight was just them looking out for me.
01:50So I know I shot the ball well,
01:52but I brought the ball up here
01:53just because I couldn't do it without them.
01:55And, you know, that's why we're such a good team.
01:59They got a ring, I'll give them that.
02:00So the guy knows how to play and he can shoot.
02:03He's got game, he's got great handle.
02:06And he, you know, I think his spacing is phenomenal.
02:08He can shake and bake and get that space you need
02:12to get that shot off.
02:13I mean, in this day and age with so many bigs
02:16and so many guys that have length that can reach out
02:19and block a shot from five feet away,
02:22there's guys with arms that go down to the floor
02:26to get that space.
02:28He's one of the best at it.
02:29He can snap.
02:30There's no doubt he can snap a shot off.
02:33And the Nuggets have now won eight in a row
02:36as they hit the all-star break.
02:37They've got themselves up to the three spot in the West.
02:40They're only a half game back of the Grizzlies
02:42for the number two in the West.
02:44So suddenly Denver 36 and 19 after a very slow start.
02:49They have had a couple of really big winning streaks.
