Shannon Sharp was very impressed with the Denver Nuggets star during Game 6.
The Denver Nuggets defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder and scored a shot to reach the Western Conference Finals.
For the second time in these playoffs, the Nuggets will play in Game 7. They need to fight the X-factor that the Thunder has in their back pocket, according to Kendrick Perkins.
It was a strong performance from the Nuggets. Kendrick Perkins has identified two nugget role players who delivered in a big way.
However, it was another player who caught Shannon Sharp’s eye.

Shannon Sharp spoke at Night Cap about Jamal Murray’s performance against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
He praised the scoring sparkle as he finished the game with 25 points. For Sharp, Murray is worthy of modern James.
“We don’t talk about him like he is because he wasn’t on the All-NBA team.
“He’s like he’s worthy of James. The bigger the game, the more he plays. He knew his back was against the wall.
“If it doesn’t work, the series ended with six games. Let’s go back to OKC and see who can handle the pressure better.” I love the way they played tonight.

The Denver Nuggets managed to overcome the amazing Oklahoma City Thunderside on Sunday afternoon. It is one of the biggest achievements in the history of their franchise.
But for that to happen, Jamal Murray must be at his best. Point Guards thrive in big game situations. And Oklahoma City’s Game 7 is pretty much the same game that teams can face.
He must show fearlessness against what he believes to be a loud, hostile, and intimidating thunder crowd and focus on his game.
If so, the Nugget has a very good shot to defeat this lightning side, despite playing almost twice as many games.
