The Celtics hunted Jamal Murray on Sunday. Nuggets coach Michael Malone said Murray should almost take it as a sign of disrespect

What can the Nuggets expect in the playoffs? Opposing defenses will dare non-shooters to shoot, yes, but offenses will target perceived weaknesses on Denver’s defensive end, too.

Jamal Murray couldn't hide his frustration when Russell Westbrook took a bad shoot during their loss to the Milwaukee Bucks.

Murray did it all for Denver in Monday's contest, leading all Nuggets in scoring and shots made while finishing second on the team in rebounds and assists in a well-rounded performance. Murray has recorded 25 or more points in 16 outings, adding at least five rebounds and five dimes in five of those contests.

Denver took the defending champion Boston Celtics down to the wire but lost, 110-103, on Sunday afternoon. The Nuggets were down by as many as 20 points but rallied with a big fourth-quarter comeback. They got the lead down to just 4 points, yet Boston hung on.
