This is a ridiculous thread.
In 2020-2021 when Murray torn his ACL Denver was at 31-18 (63%).
In last 23 games without Murray Nuggets finished with 16W-7L (69.5%).
In the playoff without the starter PG (and without a max player contract) Jokic win the first round against Portland and lost to Phoenix where CP3 tortured the starting guards Campazzo-Austin Rivers with 25/5/10 with ts% 0.743.
In 2021-2022 without Murray Denver goes to 48-34(59%) and lost to first round against the future Champs.
With the roles reversed with Murray and without Jokic (and without even the possibility of replacing his max contract) Denver certainly wouldn't have even gone to the playoffs... guaranteed.
What would be Jokic's career without Murray?

Nuggets go down if Murray do not have a good game, no matter how good Jokic plays.
