damn this is some LEGENDARY stuff right here. this video is going to be replayed for decades when they talk about one of the greatest duosof the 2020s: Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray. (The GREATEST duo is actually Luka and Kyrie, but jokic and murray is 2nd) epic
Dang I remember Jamal Murray in that game because he stood out, had no clue Jokic was in that game let alone on the same team. Pretty cool how it turned out. Also crazy to see just how far Jokic surpassed Towns and Okafor.
Uh oh… don’t show Towns this comment or he’ll cry about it and say how their play in win was more impressive than Jokic and the Nugs winning the Finals 🤣🤣
Jokic had a Nuggets sweater when he was 4 years old. And we are talking about Serbia in the 90's. His uncle brought it from his USA trip. He was destined to play for Denver.
@@ImGayWhenISayThisButthat’s most likely because he’s a nuggets fan though… Jokic’s nuggets jersey was just because his dad went to Colorado on a business trip and brought it back to him. It’s pure fairytale in real life shit. Love it
This is legendary the nba should put out a video of them in this game and make a montage of them over the years playing together when they win it all these guys have been hooping with eachother for pretty much 9 years and the chemistry has been there since the 1st minute they played together
to those who are questioning the the best duo part.. he said "may go down as one of the best duos in NBA history" I think to argue against the POSSIBILITY of it is insane. to say its not possible is just disrespectful imo.
It’s just a bunch of old heads who can’t see that Joker and Murray literally put up almost identical numbers as the greats, and use a straw man argument of “well basketball was harder back then.” It doesnt matter what they think. They will never know because we can’t time travel and put 2023 teams against MJ and them. All that matters is that they literally did what the greats did.
Lol all these people in the comments saying they not up there because of a playoff loss....... because they lost cant take away from what they have done together man, everyone in the nba has lost, yes including jordan, people say jordan neved lost, but thats only in the finals, even he has had playoff heart breakes.....
They’re champions bro. They’re good. They’ll be back for another chip next year. They just weren’t hungry enough for it this year. bandwagon wolves fans talking smack acting like that sorry franchise has done anything 😂😂 they’re about to get smacked and knocked out by Luka and then go back into hiding again
I was telling my wife about this game the other night. Was telling her how Murray, who was headed to my team, UK, dominated. No idea that Joker was on that team. Good stuff.
I appreciate shorts like this. Nobody gave our Nuggets any love the whole year. They probably still won't next year which makes this Championship extra dope!!!
I really hope they’ll win it all. The international success will probably make all the great US players step up more! The last championships went to really selfless guys, warriors, bucks, to a degree the lakers and the raptors…!
This is some very legendary lowkey cool stuff right here. I live in Colorado and tell my friends about this every chance i get. Little cool piece of history every Nuggets fan should know about or look into a little bit.
i watched this live but i didn’t even pay attention to Jokic. I’m a kentucky fan so i was mostly watching Karl Towns. I don’t think Jamal Murray was even on our radar yet either. He really blew up the next spring.
@@magic3383 I think this is the 2014 game. Murray was still between his sophomore and junior years. He wasn’t really on anyone’s radar. His recruitment was weird because he didn’t get noticed till the hoop summit the NEXT season. And then he committed to UK and reclassed like a month later. I think his best offer before the 2015 hoop summit was Oregon. Where he was a heavy lean and then UK and Duke offered him. But i thigh UK only recruited him for like a month or two.
@@danielward8645 it makes sense because I don't remember KAT in the game I watched. All I remember is Murray was the best player on the floor and I was looking forward to him being at UK.
@@magic3383 He played in the pan am games or some kid of internerional or FIBA competition after he committed to Kentucky as well and he killed it there too. I think in ether the finals or semifinals he scored like 20 straight points for Canada in a come from behind win. Might have been against Team USA. But he was brilliant in that. I think that’s when a lot of people got a look at his full potential. Because he was doing that against older players as well.
They actually scrimmaged against each other a year before this. Jokic scored 20 points, which lead all scorers in their class. (Somehow scouts didn’t care) Jamal finished the scrimmage with 6 points.
For now definitely a stretch, but if anyone has the potential to be, it's them. Out of every duo in the running they probs have the best chemistry and pure offenseive skill
Naming someone best in history is such nonsense. Someone can be best in quantifiable parameters, most points, most rebs, assistance... Rest is just personal impression and preference. Even if there is a pole, voters are always biased.
What is funny is that on a scrim after the regular practice Jokic COOKED KAT,Okafor and everyone else. He got some terrible "serious" games at practice, but them on a post practice game he just went god mode and cooked every single top 10 pick at that pratice from that year and next year lmao
I can't put them in the top 5 top 10 best duos they gotta do it again at least one more time. It was jus Denver time they built with pretty much the same team the past few years

Ayo? 🤔
Underrated comment
Now they're NBA CHAMPIONS🔥‼️
TEAMWORK MAKES THAT DREAM WORK 🔥 CONGRATULATIONS NUGGETS
Now their in cancun😂😂😂😂
I'm proud to have Jamal Murray representing Canada. Him and Jokic are great together 🇨🇦❤️🇷🇸
Jokic had a Nuggets sweater when he was 4 years old. And we are talking about Serbia in the 90's.
His uncle brought it from his USA trip.
He was destined to play for Denver.
That’s crazy
Rigged 😂

Definately best duo of Nugget history
Agreed. Shout out AI + Melo, and English + Issel/Thompson/Vandeweghe

@@daddyfuse50 lol, it was hard to pick a single teammate for Alex English. I wasn’t even alive back then
Makes you emotional to see this. No one could have predicted how special these guys were going to be.
Congratulations you two and the Whole Denver Nuggets Team and Organization You guys deserve to win a championship
cool factoid. Didn't know about this!
I havent heard the word factoid in years. Bravo! 😂😂😂
Lol
it's not a factoid
@@myweirdsecondchannelwithap9070 who invited you 3 weeks late
Honestly their 2 man game was unstoppable.
Damn, they go waaaaayyy back..
Shit gave me goosebumps, especially seeing Nikola with the Nuggets hoodie as a kid and these two made history this year.
Nuggets need to keep gordon and porter then they have a chance for a dynasty's. No bigs in the west can gaurd jokic right now
Kcp & Bruce brown too.. hell of a help from those 2
Everyone is under contract for a while, only Brown is entering his final year next season.
@@sganet_ they roster perfect everybody locked in as 1 except Michael porter sometimes that mf be gunning some bs lol
They have a chance to possibly win back to back with the depth of the team they have now
They could probably lose porter is they got someone more consistent
Jokic needed to make that sot, he waited years, so inspirational man😢😢😢
to those who are questioning the the best duo part.. he said "may go down as one of the best duos in NBA history" I think to argue against the POSSIBILITY of it is insane. to say its not possible is just disrespectful imo.
You guys just read but not listen. He said they may go down as "one of the best duos" in NBA history. Clear your ears or something 💀
Chile they slow.

Ima be honest, I didn’t know this. Glad they both ended up here in Denver.
It would've been a sweep if he had did the same thing in game 2 pure sweep
And they been running that two man since this day and can’t be stopped.
Congrats to these champs
I was telling my wife about this game the other night. Was telling her how Murray, who was headed to my team, UK, dominated. No idea that Joker was on that team. Good stuff.

That’s wild!! Didn’t know they vibed together before the NBA 💯
GOOSEBUMPS!!!!! This is dope af!
Daaaaaaaum Denver had the answers to the test this whole time 😂
I really hope they’ll win it all. The international success will probably make all the great US players step up more! The last championships went to really selfless guys, warriors, bucks, to a degree the lakers and the raptors…!
And now there both champs 🏆😎
That is so awesome!!!!
Shaq and Kobe will forever be the best duo idgaf iykyk
Okafor 😂
He was suppose to be next Duncan. He did have better rookie year than both these guys though. Look up the numbers
Damn I remember watching this game for Okafor at the time it be fun to rewatch games like these to look for other players
Damn I forgot Okafor LMAO last time I've seen the dude was in 2020 when he was playing for Pistons 😂😂
Typical Duke bust
I do like them perfect chemistry.
Jokic could go down as the best big man ever.. He's definitely the most skilled in my opinion
This is awesome. Had no idea this happened.
Big respect how you saying Nikolas name 🔥
They need to win at least 5 to be called best . Now that everyone knows about these two it'll be harder next season.
NBA legendary moving screens
Nice find!!!!
This is some very legendary lowkey cool stuff right here. I live in Colorado and tell my friends about this every chance i get. Little cool piece of history every Nuggets fan should know about or look into a little bit.
Beautiful
That’s a awesome short!! Great work on this for real
For sure they had no idea back then of what was waiting for them :D
It's hard to believe that the Nuggets lost 29 games in the regular season
FIRST great video I love the facts and this is the first time I’ve heard of it….. now ONE OF THE BEST DUOS IN NBA HISTORY BRUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Now they are fighting each other in the playoffs
Bros old jumper was so clean
Top 50 duo all time
Fantastic video my guy
Good find on this video
This is beautiful
Best duo in history 😂😂😂😂😂

Unless Murray dominated the next year he was on UK's radar. I watched specifically to see him. Maybe it was the year after this though.

Was that an official game?
Best duo really smfh so disrespectful
Early on, it became their bread & butter in Denver 😮
They naturally sync
Man, 9yrs ago they were setting the stage
Great video!
That’s beautiful
So cool!
Best duo in history is crazy 😅
he said MAY
that’s badasss
That's Awesome!
in terms of THE BEST DUO in NBA history we are talking about stockton/malone, jordan/pippen, kobe/shaq, lebron/kyrie etc.
Talk about a full circle moment
Best duo in nba history is a stretch
But they're definitely a great duo
For now definitely a stretch, but if anyone has the potential to be, it's them. Out of every duo in the running they probs have the best chemistry and pure offenseive skill

I love jokic...he's can play..
You can see how he learned to adjust his shot. His ball arch is higher
legendary
crazy. just few years later they were playing a playoff game on that same floor
To je sudbina isto kao sto ima sliku sa denverovim duksom
How crazy to learn this. Things are not what they seem.
The Best Duo??? WHAAAAT?
One of*
That looked like a 2K Game
Jokic changed his shot
This is so cool
Dope video
I was wondering who won that game 😮
Make a movie already. Damn
Denver scouts were the only ones to show up to this game?
That's some trippy ass stuff
Did you hear about Jokic getting a nuggets shirt when he was like four years old?

@dr.zoidberg7654 wow
Both rosters sounds stack
“Best duo in NBA History” 🧢
MAY
That is pushing it.
Jokic nears a triple double and Murray gets the game winner to send the lakers home AGAIN
W video

Mean brick😂🧱
Can’t be considered one of the best duos. When you’ve got Scottie and MJ with 6, Steph and Klay with 4, Kobe and Shaq with 3, LeBron and DWade with 2
One of the best doesn't mean number one my guy
Ever heard the term one of?
