Who’s really to blame on the Nuggets’ awful final possession against the Wizards? A breakdown

Breaking down who was at fault on the Nuggets’ failed final possession against the Wizards.

The Nuggets’ 112-110 loss to the Wizards on Thursday night was always going to be a bad loss.

But it wasn’t just the fact that it was a loss. It was the way that they lost that really makes this bad. The Nuggets had a 4-on-1 fastbreak at the end of the game with the opportunity to tie — and maybe even win — in the final seconds.

Jamal Murray brought the ball down on the break with Michael Porter Jr., Monte Morris and Facu Campazzo all running with him. Instead of getting a bucket out of this golden opportunity, they did this.

Campazzo ended the game with a really weird 3-point attempt that clanked off of the rim. And now, all everyone is talking about is who’s to blame for Denver squandering this opportunity.

Here’s how it all breaks down.
