Dejounte Murray gets locked down by Herbert Jones in the 9-10 play in game 2022

Murray is a fine player who had a tough shooting night but this is probably the game that put Herb on the radar for me as I only watched maybe 2 Pelicans games in the regular season.

All of the rookies look to have and understand their role will be watching them next season with LP, Pels fans should be excited this boy Herb was a steal in the second round of the draft.

  1. Obv this is a meme post given the recent situation but Murray got tanked by a respiratory illness to end the season, he defs wasn’t himself in that game (although you have to give Herb credit too).

  2. Lolol an OKC fan saw an opportunity to be relevant for just a couple minutes and LUNGED

  3. Man dude this sub needs basketball back lol. This Murray Paolo stuff is getting way too much attention and comments here.

  4. Tbh Murray has a lot of good creation to get open looks, just missed. Based on these highlights, definitely wouldn’t classify this as being locked down

  5. People have largely overlook it, but DJ has been pretty much invisible in playoff/play-in games his entire career.

  6. To be fair to Murray, that Spurs team had very few options and he was taking lots of terrible shots because his team was bad offensively. Ideally he’ll only be taking open shots on a better offensive team

  7. nah, Herb Jones is just that guy. he can do this to 99% of the league. we don’t gotta cherry-pick Dejounte

  8. I’m not discounting Jones’ defense right here, but Murray was getting the looks he wanted. The shots were just not dropping that night.

  9. Can someone explain why herb wasn’t drafted earlier, I know success in college doesn’t necessarily translate to the pros, but he won SEC player of the year, and DPOY at Alabama before going to the league

  10. Y’all dick sucking Dejounte now, it’s weird. Like you’re trying to force yourself to hate him

  11. Lol Murray was sick and didn’t have a lot of help. Y’all so desperate to hate this guy
