Live broadcast on December 9th, NBA regular season, the Blazers were killed by Nuggets Star Jamal Murray in three points at home and defeated his opponent with one point. After the game, pioneer coach Billups was interviewed by the media.
When talking about the loss, Billups said: “It’s hard to lose in this way. It’s a hard battle. We got into a bad start again in the fourth quarter. Jamal Murray hit the big heart and killed him. And Lillard played wonderful goals in a row so that we could bite the score until the decisive stage.”
Billups said of Murray’s three-point killing: “We (at that time) led by 2 points. At this time, the worst choice is to let the opponent vote three points. Only the opponent scored 2 points will not lose, but continue to play when adding. Too bad.”
