Bennett Durando: Nikola Jokic on the Nuggets firing Michael Malone and Calvin Booth: “I knew a little bit before everybody. And (Josh Kroenke) told me, ‘We made a decision.’ So it was not a discussion. It was a decision, and he told me why. So I listened and I accept it.”

The tension, the overreliance on vets and the thought of wasting another Nikola Jokic season (and more) led to the housecleaning in Denver. New for @YahooSports sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/te… – 9:13 PM

Firing playoff coaches so early or late in seasons is a long established practice 2 attempt 2 conceal the overt incompetence of decision makers. It works as long as foolish fans are satisfied to pay important money to see quasars like Joker & Ja, as well as mediocrity or worse. – 4:25 PM

I promised that the word “shocking” would be removed from my vocabulary post Luka, but this one is a stunner.
Denver is 11-13 post All-Star break but has seen Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray miss significant time in March/April.
Their defense has fallen off the cliff.

On the Pacers loss, Jokic’s plight, Braun’s accountability, and a sketchy Jamal Murray injury update.

Consensus @itsbrianbarrett & I built on #AllNBA, in some order: Shai, Jokic, Giannis, Tatum, Mitchell, Edwards, Brunson, LeBron, Curry, Mobley, Cade, Jackson, Towns, Sengun…then Tyrese, Booker or Ja.Williams? And where does Jaylen stand?
