Murray repeatedly torched the Celtics in the pick-and-roll and had it going from downtown with nine 3-pointers made. What was most impressive about Murray’s performance, though, was the killer instinct he had in the fourth quarter, where he dropped 19 of his 48 points (including 14 of Denver’s final 16 points).
