Mavs 124, Nuggets 117

I think JRich was the player of this game. Ok, maybe it was Luka, but JRich impacted this game more than any other so far as a Mav. He literally shut down Jamal Murray when he was assigned to him (which was for over 21 possessions), like 0 points and only 3 field goal attempts. This is despite JM getting 99 touches for the game and scoring 21 points overall. I would call his defensive play the most dominant performance of the game, because IMO Luka and Jokic could have been better.
