  1. Jamal murray and jokic cant do much againat this team
    The only way they are winning if Christian braun or aaron gordon along with mpj start dominaning

  2. Make some adjustment to your lineup… your starting 5 and rotation sucks since game 1 of Lakers series… until now you doing nothing… You don't have inside defence… Jokic is being tortured inside since the Lakers series…. give Deandre Jordan a chance.. Reggie Jackson is only effective when playing alongside Deandre…

  3. Malone not talking so smart now after getting their behind kicked😂😂😂. He talked a lot trash to Lakers but no trash talking to his daddy(Minnesota Timberwolves😂😂😂). Timberwolves please give the chicken nuggets a sweep😂😂😂.

  4. gotta love the NBA. denver spent all their money on starters and they have no bench. now they cannot repeat. jokic is amazingly skilled but he just does not want a second championship enough. he is ready to go hang out with horses. I cannot blame him. it takes an insane person want to win year after year.

  5. Mike ‘S forced jaw dropped in suppressed anger in the interview. I clear sign HE IS THE ONLY ONE TO BLAME HE LOST HIS TEMPER . could have ebeen thrown out of the game , got out coached and didn’t recognize the GAMES PHYSICALLY CHANGED….. ADAPTATION COACH!

  6. Reporter: Where are Jamal and Jokic right now?
    Coach: There in the locker room right now.taking showers.
    😂😂

  7. Got to make adjustments as a coach! Throw some more bigs out there like D’jordan. Draw up some offensive plays instead of having them boys play elementary playground basketball. Calm our team down! ADJUST!!!

  8. You cannot count on a frequently injured number 2. Even w/o the knee injury Jamal has got that Embid thing. Misses a lot of games and comes out shooting at a low percentage too often Even in the two laker games where he was the savior; overall he played badly.

  9. Porter is a mediocre role player who’s being paid and getting minutes like an all star. He should play 20 min max. let Brown and Watson play his minutes to match Minnesota and you’ll see the difference

  10. Glad this unclassy mf got smothered last night. He won his first championship last year and before the confetti fell he was talking smack about Lebron who is an all around good guy. Not even Phil Jackson who won many rings targeted a player from the other team after winning. Enjoy your one trophy

  11. Its okay Its just 2 games. Wolves in 4.

    The bright side is nuggets coach gonna meet his new daddy after game 4.

    Lastly, Karma is a B*tch! It bites back faster, harder and more painful 😂😅🤣

  12. Dear Mr Malone, everyone has a daddy 😅😅…you won 1 championship and was saying shit to a franchise that won 17 times

  13. Michael Malone deserves it. He is the least humble coach in the NBA. Where are all the who's your daddy chants they did to the Lakers? They won one championship, and thought they were the sh-t. All that talking they did at the parade was unprofessional. I pray it is a sweep.

  14. I still dont get why KCP and Murray is on the floor while Braun is doing better.. Bruce Brown and Uncle Jeff needs to come back

  15. ⁠​⁠30+ year Nuggets fan here… Let's remember that OKC and MN were on top pretty consistently all year and DEN was up and down even in their wins. When teams get physical with them they struggle, especially JM. I've thought all year that DEN inability (or desire) to take an offensive charge would hurt them. Way too many green light drives to the hoop.

    All year pundits have said DEN repeat but I don't think they watched every game. I did, and though my heart remains kind of hopeful but my brain (and eyes) thinks it's not our year. And serious props to MN. They are kicking butt!

  16. From the middle of the 2nd quarter, every time MN made a shot Jokers shoulders slumped.
    He's donezo.

  17. I respect coach Malone. I'm just baffled how a coaching staff of over 20 people can't see the obvious difference in the team this season.
    Fans enjoyed the Nuggs last season because they spaced AND moved without the ball. They hit their cutting lanes. They made good decisions with the ball. This season they're playing the same lazy basketball style of spacing WITHOUT movement prevalent in the NBA. Without intensity. They got away with it against a Lakers team prone to poor defensive spells.
    The symptom of all this is Jokic isn't seeing his teammates move the same and he's now forcing a lot of bad turnovers. The Nuggs have falllen into the "make or miss" style of offense instead of imposing their system onto their opponent and putting them on their heels. And now they've run into a younger and hungrier team and theyve focused on shutting down Murray and its been very effective.
    Perhaps desperation will wake up this coaching staff to evaluate the film and ask if these players are committed to the style that won last season? Because this year they don't resemble a championship-level team thats fun to watch.
