I’m no expert. But I disbelieve your numbers. No coincidence, in my mind, that centers like Jokic and Embiid have monster numbers in the regular season against the field. There just aren’t many real centers any more. Which is why you should take Gafford’s record-setting FG streak with a grain of salt. He’s definitely not the best since Wilt. And there’s no way I’d vote Joker a 3-time MVP.
Murray was hurt. He didn’t play in the playoffs in 21 or 22. They won the title in 23 the first time he was healthy for this current Nuggets team.
