  1. They say the truth hurts,bunch grown men's whoever ran like a dog with the tail between they legs are bunch of cowards. Michael Malone didn't deserve to het fired especially when only three games left šŸ‘Ž

  2. He is waaaay too hard on these gen Z ballers. He needs to hold their hands and spoon feed them everything they need. Maybe having more breaks during practice so players can go to their safe spaces will help.

  3. Ah so it’s the management, GM, ownership, or some of the above that sucks. Literally won a championship a couple years ago, the team doesnt look that different either. And I guarantee the problem is also the players. Malone is likely the last person they needed to fire/trade, second only to Jokic.

  4. Nba is becoming garbage on all levels. Ownership refs players. I l9ve basketball but they are making it very hard to watch

  5. Lmfaoooo get off Jokic šŸ† and maybe you’d win the locker room I’m not playing defense when I don’t touch the ball all game that’s all ima say. Proof in the pudding boy be getting triple doubles and STILL LOSING

  6. As lakers fan who really didn’t like Mike for all the crazy talk he used to talk about the lakers… this was not a good firing by the nuggets and he didn’t deserve to fired in such manner at the end of the season! Shame on the nuggets organization for this ridiculous firing of a good coach. He just coached the team in 2023 to its first championship in franchise history.

  7. It’s mind boggling how Michael Malone is not a coach currently yet Doc Rivers is…

  8. Getting fired 2 seasons after winning a chip and currently 4th in the western conference is absolutely krazy. He'll be right back coaching again next season

  9. He was right about what he said, but he's also annoying by talking shi8 about LeBron…Joker? One Championship?!

  10. Gotta be the dumbest firing in NBA history. Almost sports history but Jerry got that award when he fired Jimmy Johnson.

  11. Players are soft. That's what happens when you have Adam Silver. Players pouting over things like this. Would have never happen with Stern

  12. The Nuggets are soft and they will be an early casualty in the playoffs this year. Hopefully the new GM goes out and gets some help for Jokic or Denver is going to have a revoloving door of coaches for the next few years. The coach is the one who always takes the fall in the NBA unfortunately and this is solid proof. Malone can coach make no mistake about it and they did him dirty in my opinion. If im an NBA GM who isnt sure about my coach, im calling this guy asap.

  13. He exposed the team metality from the players and lack of help from organization n they fired him cuz they ass got exposed for not takin bball seriously thinkin they all jokic. Gm was terrible mike deserved better

  14. Malone was one of the biggest factors with their championship run…. Alright sell the farm! If no one stuck up for him that’s a shame!

  15. IM GLAD PERK SAID THIS SHIT!! HE LOST THEM AND I. BLAME IT ON HIM BECAUSE YOU DIKKRIDING JOKIC WHEN THERE’S A WHOLE ROSTER.

  16. I actually think Malone pulled the peace sign out and said to hell with it…. If the players aren’t bought in than you say good luck without me

  17. YALL REALLY DONT HAVE A CLUE ABOUT THIS GAME CALLED BASKETBALL. YALL CAN CRY JOKIC STATS OUT ALL YALL WANT. ONCE YOU LOSE THE LOCKEROOM YOURE DONE

  18. Lmfaooo I would laugh in my coach face if he think ima be playing defense when I don’t touch ball on offense

  19. Dixkriding Jokic and putting the ball in his hands LITERALLY EVERY TRIP on the offensive end doesn’t mean you’re a good coach

  20. Nuggets aren't going anywhere with the new coach. Jokic is stuck with Murray for years and has never had a legitimate all-star next to him. Now it's all downhill from here, what a stupid move. Course they have to lie and put out some message as if it's the nuggets wanting to win and the reason why they did this is to be a winning team. What a bunch of lying obvious horsesh*t. They're not winning anything now, I'll be shocked if they get out of the first round.

  21. This is why basketball players can’t compare to hockey players. It’s not even close. You represent the name on the front way more than the one on the back. And they fired him lmao. The nba is a dying league. When you have whiners/ complainers more than actual stars that know how to act you get this. Come over to our sport. And don’t talk shit. We will literally fight you. Square up

  22. How does this happen less than 2 years after a championship, and the horrible last 2 games of the playoffs last year?

  23. I don't even like the nuggets but this guy is a great coach. He sticks up for the players like he did Jamal when he was injured. He coached them from missing the playoffs to a championship. Idk what the hell goes on in the offices of organizations but it don't make sense.

  24. You're the best coach denver has ever had. The NBA Media is working too hard. They want the things they want to see. "They" is YOU!

  25. For a company to fire their recently won championship coach. They are absolutely brain dead. Especially because the playoff's will start soon. team corporate just doesn't care about an NBA championship if they took action into firing him over this. Society is so soft and i personally hate it

  26. NBA is going on a downward spiral šŸŒ€ like boxing and few years back was a huge fan for both sports and hardly miss a match or a game.

    Times are different. The sensitive league and boxer of their prime won’t fight each other and age each other out. UFC it is cause you can expect the best to fight the best unless you’re Jones

  27. Should’ve kept Malone and dealt MPJ this summer. He prolly the one complaining on coach.
