Denver Nuggets interim coach David Adelman was dismayed and angered by the amount of contact allowed by the officials while the Los Angeles Clippers defended Nikola Jokic in Game 6.

Even with Nikola Jokic submitting a pedestrian scoring night in Game 5, t Nuggets still beat the L.A. Clippers.

Following Tuesday night's win, Jokić was asked to recall a key quote of his about Murray from that first Nuggets title run that feels evergreen right now. After an electric Murray led those Nuggets to a decisive Game 1 win over the Phoenix Suns in 2023's second round, Jokić referred to his running mate as the Nuggets' "best player."
