It's up to the head coach to have his players ready to play if they're not it's his job to make adjustments so things turn around, obviously Malone failed to do his job !
Zasto si u najbitnijem momentu ostavio dva najbolja igraca na klupi????
Fire Malone
We needed Bone's energy in this game to get us over the hump. AG balled out, great effort by him. Let's get it together, Nuggets!!!
Malones scheme has to be one of the most ruthless in the league and the Denver players now that….. so how tf do they still have games like this…. GUYS its hard to play perfect basket ball 24/7
Nuggets are playing with 1 (one) star player.
That's the truth. Plain and simple.
AG is a great guy, plays his heart out.
Jok never disappoints.
KCP does what's he's paid to do.
The rest – well… it's not at the contender level.
I wish that Jamal, one day, becomes healthy. That he – one day – becomes a contributor that one can count on. That… at one point… we don't have to ask ourselves, before EVERY game, "is jamal gonna play?".
Or that MPJ matures at the speed of light, without hitting the Einstein paradox.
And that FO gets some usable assets for the 2nd unit.
Uf… problem is – we should manage our expectations. Nuggets are NOT a contender organization. They're just NOT IT.
We made 1 great trade-& solved 1 of our big weaknesses…for Bryant. And 1 awful,despicable trade getting basically a bucket of piss for Bones. AND GIFTWRAPPED HIM TO A RIVAL,WE COULD PLAY 1ST ROUND! Im not saying keep Bones-maybe he had to go. Hes an immature,& flawed young guy-who plays no defense,& maybe it got too cancerous,that he had to go. But at the very least you couldve traded him out East,for the almost worthless 2nd rounders we got.
And I know Jokic was a 2nd rounder-so was Ginobli. You can find exceptions to everything.But nba 2nd rounders are usually as valuable as 6th or 7th rounder in the nfl,or 4th rounder in the nhl. I have almost as much chance of ever suiting up for a contender,as most nba 2nd rounders. And if you are gonna just give Bones away-ya better sign some veteran pg on the buyout market. I love Bruce Brown,but he isnt a pg. And if he gets hurt-we are screwed. Ish Smith is basically your pg depth now.
Just absolutely disgusting that we give away a talented young kid,& give the Clippers a golden opportunity to fix him. Bryant was a good pickup,but the Bones "trade" basically overshadows it. You might as well have cut him. Meanwhile much of the west got A LOT better.If a Bruce Brown injury &/or lack of a compotent backup pg costs us a Finals trip-Im gonna be sick,& wont forget it Calvin Booth. Jamal cant play every game(like tonight)-or 48 minutes. I really hope they have a plan,cuz they look like absolute fools right now on this 1 thing.
Yall traded bones and this is the after math, pathetic
It’s on you Coach- again you let the opponent go from single- to double-digit lead without your reaction. Honestly, Adelman reads the game much more organically, he also got Vlatko back in the lineup and Jeff’s minutes should be reduced. MPJ is MPJ- absolutely no consistency. Either Jamal stays healthy till the end of the season or this year will be a bust, you can’t win the league only with Jokic and AG.
The bench was absolutely terrible 💩. Coach Malone playing small ball bench didn't work??? Cop it on the chin. Unfortunately a really bad team performance💩
Nuggets lose one game and everybody loses their mind smh… chill out god damn it
Ever since I've been watching basketball, and I've been watching it for more than 30 years, I've never seen a coach allow and force so much a player who shows no desire and will to play, who destroys the team's game with his moves in forcing shots and standing in defense!
Coach Malone is at least 90% to blame for this defeat!
You see that MPJ is not good,he is forcing throws, that he does not score even when he is alone, that he does not help in defense, that he is literally an observer and you leave him in the game!!!
I would rather not talk about time outs, which you often request too late and you see that the second team can't do anything and you give the first team just under 8 minutes until the end of the game!
THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE IN THIS LEAGUE AND AT THIS LEVEL COACH MALONE!!!!!
MPJ trash
Really done with Malone. He says exactly the same things in every post game thing and interview. I'm guessing that after 9 years it's getting pretty old in the locker room too.
AG !!
