  1. I despise this guy for all the hollering be did after they beat the Lakers.. fek this guy and the Nuggets ๐Ÿ˜‚

  2. While some players were not playing well (MPJ and the bench aside from Russ), the loss should be squarely on Malone for failing to ADJUST early against the Lakers. While he does take blame here, the loss should be stressed as primarily a coaching failure, both prior and in-game.

    Despite being a Nuggets fan, I'm glad that they got their teeth kicked in. Poor performance by everyone shows the team isn't perfect and they are being too chummy with their play this season in spite of the win streak. I hope they are chewing out each other for today, fixing what needs to be fixed (whether its their attitude coming into the game, the turnovers, the defense, the shooting, etc.).

  4. This Game was Rigged.
    THEY wanted to establish Luka as the Lakersโ€™ savior and Jamesโ€™ super pal,
    framing Jokic under the Laker's basket, swirled and beaten by three guys.
    He was told not to take the three shots (one and done?) but to lumber around,
    leaving his teammates confused to make turnovers and miss easy shots.
    They played lame to emphasize how well the Lakers played.
    Those with open eyes have seen the scheme; the sleepers will deny and cheer up the rig. Melone is a part of the scheme not permitting and adjusting the team to play their common way of fast and powerful plays. (… pathetically "saving" Jokic by taking away his playing time, when he is really needed. He also stole Nikola's triple-double many times with the same lame attitude.)

  5. Wait till the refs start calling fouls on Braun. Dude is an absolute hack. I'm a long time fan of Russ but he's gonna be a problem for Nuggets at some point in playoffs, playing inefficient and turning the ball over. Reality check: the nuggets defense has declined, and when MJP is off, it's a Lotta pressure on Joker and Murray. Very interesting to see that exposed even if it's only one game.

  6. Nugs just never put in specialized gameplans in the regular season, it isn't their strategy. Sucks for us fans who want to see a big win on national TV but it is what it is.

  7. Lakers bandwagon calm it down please, they act like they won a tittle. You can't win every game.yes they had a good game plan for us,one thing I do know. Malone already know wat to do next

  8. Please play Westrbook at PG and Jamal at SG… MPJ out of the starting lineup. Westbrook, Jamal, CB, GOrdon and Jokic… Jamal is so much better at SG position.

  9. Malone you just got out coach by JJ. Says a lot. Lucky for you the players of the league have not let new coaching develop over the years.

  10. How can you counter the Refs allowing the Lakers to hack the Nuggets
    How do you counter Lebrons FREE TRAVELS AND CHARGES? How do you counter Reaves Flopping? Its a joke watching the Lakers Free MOVING SCREENS

  11. No offensive rebounding for Nuggets either which no one has mentioned. But Malone predicted there'll be highs and lows from the all star game to the playoffs, and he wasn't whistling Dixie. They'll have plenty of highs coming up. too. Bummed in the moment, but no way the Nuggets stay this down and the Lakers stay this up for the duration. This was an aberration, not a trend.

  12. Nuggets are gonna get exposed big time lots of work to be done second or third hardest strength of schedule left they gonna have to lock

  13. Mike Malone time-out talk…"juss throw the ball ๐Ÿ€ to Jokic and run around him"๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  14. Nuggets definitely getting exposed. Beat the Blazers, Bobcats (twice), Suns without their big 3. Big problems in the playoffs.

  15. Simply put the Nuggets have no bench.
    The Bench, not couting garbage time players, went 8-24, and 7 of those made shots came from Westbrook.

  16. There's really nothing to like about this guy ๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm glad the Lakers gave them a straight whooping

  17. There seems to be stretches that Booth doesnโ€™t appear to be a moron, but that darn reality deal keeps waking us up. Iโ€™m a Malone fan, but he did a poor job. Iโ€™m glad, and not at all surprised that he took responsibility.

  18. Im a raptors fan but avid suporter of nuggets coz of Jamal and jokic. Nuggets lacked physicality in this game, they need that to disrupt Luka. They just let him do his thing. Try little nasty, ur boys are too passive. Ur a champ, act like it… and its ur house.ffs
