Chandler win NEVER win the Mr. Clutch award, could've won the game but missed the 2nd of 2 free throws

Terrible execution....Mudiay tries "fancy" pass...Nelson giving up easy layup....Nelson stepping out of bounds...Gallo shooting poor % on his 3's then tries another in OT. Malone needs to re-evaluate.

Mudiay played by far his best game of the year. Encouraging to see.

Jameer hits the go ahead 3 late in the 4th, then promptly gives up the layup to derozan, open 3 to Ross and steps out of bounds in the biggest offensive possession in OT. Would've liked to see more Murray.

I'm getting really tired of Malone as a coach to be honest. It's getting close to Brian Shaw levels for me.

Malone's a great PLAYER's coach, but I don't see the X's and O's coach, just not seeing it this year...and it's not because he doesn't have the talent

Malone might be a bit overwhelmed by the amount of talent he has to work with right now. You gotta remember, he coached some dreadful Kings teams and our injury depleted team last year. I think he's trying crunch time rotations to see what works. Early on he was going small ball to close out games. We all complained and this game he played Nurkic to start the 4th and Jokic the rest of the way.

Would I like to see less jameer? Sure. Do I love the Mudiay/Murray/Gallo/Chandler/Jokic lineup we saw for a couple mins tonight? Abso-freakin-lutely. But I don't see the "Malone is terrible" take. I don't think there's anyone available that I'd rather coach this team.
