Who is the better coach?

Last 2 games play really good on both ends and I believe he growing right before our eyes. He play plumlee and Jokic as good as you can. He battle both players really good. 8/8 in 18 minutes plus 1 block and a steal.

The thing is will it make any difference? If you lose game four they could be in big trouble for the series? But if they win game four and rest him for game 5 then see if he is better for game 6? That might be a better option?
This is a tough call. Every game is important in this series. If they can somehow win game 4 and then go and close this series out Kanter might have as much as a week to heal a bit?

I mean were 2-0 when he isn't "great" and 0-1 when he is. So if his sub-par games means wins I'll (and Im sure he would) take it. But yeah hopefully he can play slightly better. Still, I don't think they were shitty games, just dub-par for his standards.

I look at that loss as Aminu and Harkless doing less than nothing, not that Dame scored too much.

Im sorry, but that was really careless on Malones part to play Jokic that many minutes. Thats how you get a player injured.

Fact is in these playoffs when he hasn't been on the floor the Nuggets have looked sub-average. Malone saw a chance to get back home court, and if the Nuggets pulled this off, Sunday's game is house money for Denver.

So it made sense from that perspective. Like Dame playing the entire fourth quarter in the one win over OKC.

We found a way to pull it out. And now a star player with questionable stamina has to come back in less than two days after playing more than 60 minutes. Malone made a reasonable gamble but the Blazers were up to it and made him pay big time for it.

Well then, I have a message for Malone:

I am in awe at how much respect and admiration I have developed for Kanter since we picked him up. Even beyond basketball but on the court when someone says "I gave all I had" or "I left it all on the court" he is one of the few I believe. Major props and I am already bummed we won't be able to keep him.

Never really paid any attention to Fukic before this series but I legit hate that dirty fat fuck for purposely banging into Kanter's shoulder every chance he gets. I was nice to see his slow ass fucking ass choke it away at the end.

I honestly feel he will sign for way less and then get the contract the following year when we can afford to give him what he deserves.

Dude gets away with a TON of dirty stuff that has no place in basketball. He was basically targeting Kanter's shoulder from the beginning of the game. I lost all respect I previously had for the guy.

No kidding; never thought I'd love Kanter so much. We'd be nowhere without him this post-season. The guy's playing with one shoulder.
