I think Murray thought he could draw a double team when he drove the lane but JJ and Buddy stuck with their guys. Great defense all around!
Well he’s a fool. Kings were up 3. Not going to leave open three point shooters to make sure Murray doesn’t score 2

Well, maybe he’s not a fool but he thought the Kings were fools. Actually, Kings probably collapse on him last season

Tonight we saw what Barnes can do for you! Excellent play calls at the end of this one. Use Bjelica as the spreader and force the Nuggets to double Barnes, if they don't, you pay.
Should also be noted that Buddy hitting that desperation 3 in crunch time completely changed how Denver played defense both in the closing possessions of regulation and overtime as well

The Nuggets really thought they could fool JJ. Did you see Holmes rush out and congratulate him at the buzzer? Not a rookie move by any means. JJ stuck with his man and ruined the Nuggets day.
 
Only relative to his likely role. He's a two way player that won't wow you, but he can carry you for stretches. Oh man, with Fox and Bagley back this is an interesting toy chest for Walton and his staff to play with.
relative to his likely role in 2010 dollars. as the price for talent continues to rise, I don't believe it will look like we are overpaying Barnes in a year or two (maybe China impact on the cap changes things). But a solid big league every day starting 3 just costs this much imo.
