Denver Nuggets parting ways with GM Calvin Booth and head coach Michael Malone, league sources tell me.

Should have done it after the Wizards loss but I'm glad it's finally done. Couple of worthless Jokic merchants.

West Coast Bucks fired the coach. I love the overreaction and fuck Mike Malone. However I’m not a biased person. The nuggets are losing because Murray is injured blame Malone all you want.

 

[famicommander]

Malone has a career .377 record without Jokic.

Suns are officially out of playoff contention after losing seven straight. Awesome season guys. Great job.

I'll be stunned if Durant and Beal are still on the team next season. Time to offload them both, clear some major cap space, and rebuild around Booker.

 

[Tw3ek]

I'm going to watch this gif any time I want to vomit uncontrollably.

 

[Fygee]

If that happens I'm never watching another game of basketball ever again.

The NBA might as well just make the entire league nothing but the Lakers and the Warriors on the West, and the Celtics and the Heat on the East.

So he'll go from a team lacking defensive commitment to a team lacking heterosexual commitment.

Some of these nba player are just too greedy, as the point shaving getting too obvious. Better to watch college march madness games .

Skip Bayless everyone

Hey, Denver is second only to the now automatic favorite by default Mavericks in terms of alienating its transcendent players. When LA comes to Denver and that "thank you Joker" video plays, man, that will be really nice.

And Billups and Adelman will be like yeah, wow, we really like having Reggie Jackson back on the roster even though he's 48 years old.

TBH I really would like to see Adelman get the permanent job and Chauncey to get the permanent GM spot. No fooling.

 

[Fygee]

Evan Sidery posted a potential trade for Jokic for Durant and I laughed my ass off.

Suns fire Budenholzer, say change was 'needed'

The Suns have fired coach Mike Budenholzer after missing the NBA playoffs and play-in tournament with the largest payroll in league history.

Something tells me the coach wasn't the issue here though

So you fire the coach after one year of a five year contract and now owe him $40 million. Bravo, Phoenix...BRAVO!!!

 

[Arcademan]

Almost forgot that they're still paying former coaches Monty Williams and Frank Vogel for their contracts as well

 

[Fygee]

Absolutely ridiculous. Phoenix is such a hot fucking mess.

Indiana Blasts Milwaukee 117-98 but for Kyle Kuzma, it was one of the worst playoff performances in history.

Here's Kuzma's line for the game:

0-5 from the field
0-2 from 3
0-2 from the FT line
0 points
0 rebounds
0 assists
0 steals
0 blocks
0 turnovers

It added up to a game-worst -24 in the plus/minus column and a brutal day for the eighth-year NBA veteran making his first playoff appearance for the Bucks since joining them in the midseason trade that sent Khris Middleton to the Wizards. At least he didn't turn the ball over.

Damn if Kerr was not going to play kuminga they should’ve moved him instead in wiggins , they could used wiggins for the play off .

 

[Tw3ek]

Well the Nuggets lost, so that was pretty cool

 

[100proof]

The Lakers are shooting so many free throws tonight, it's going to be hilarious.

 

[Taiso]

Especially if they lose.

 

[Tw3ek]

Especially if they lose.

Lebron and Reaves play as badly tonight as game 1 and it could definitely happen

 

[Taiso]

Let's hope for the worst for L.A.

Sorry @Hippo

Lose Lebron and I'll stop hating on the Lakers.

I love how Hippo gets an apology and I don't, VERY COOL!

 

[Taiso]

I'm sorry but you should....

Spoiler:

....really not be a Lakers fan until Lebron is no longer playing for them.
