Nuggets fire coach Mike Malone
- Thread starter BigJay
- Start date
Imagine the tension when they lost to Timberwolves which ruined Jokic's career night.I just read the reason they did it is because Malone played veterans and management namely Booth who also got fired wanted him to play the rookies more. Instead Malone gave those minutes to guys like Russell Westbrook whom he felt gave them a better chance to win. So Malone ended up getting the axe along with Booth because the coaching staff and management didn't see eye to eye and it created locker room tension. This at least is a valid reason but I have to say I agree with Malone's philosophy especially on a contender. Go with the guys who you feel give you the best chance to win now because you're built to win now.
Perfect time for Kings to strike and gain a win with Nuggets in flux.
Wow. Has never been a coach and just recently expressed interest in being a high school coach.
