Jamal Murray is back to struggling like crazy. After shooting 3-18 from the field in Game 2, Murray shot a similarly bad 4-18 in Denver’s 115-75 blowout loss to the Timberwolves in Game 6 on Thursday.
He finished with 10 points, two rebounds and five assists.
Despite hitting two game-winning shots in the first round against the Lakers, Murray has now shot below 40 percent in six of his 11 games in these playoffs.
In fairness, Murray has been playing with a calf injury, but that doesn’t change the fact that some of his games in this postseason have been brutal to watch.
As a result, he has been on the receiving end of a whole lot of criticism. Here’s how NBA Twitter reacted to Murray’s most recent struggles on Thursday:
