For those of you who are Mike Malone fans, he is Head Coach of the Denver Nuggets, and he will get Coach of the Year for what he’s done in the Rocky Mountains. But his job is not done yet. Whoever has a shot at the Larry O’Brien trophy will need to earn it. The Miami Heat are led by Jimmy Butler. Jimmy has an uncanny ability to play basketball. So, too, does Nikola Jokic of the Nuggets. I think this series will come down to Jimmy Butler and Nikola Jokic. Whoever has the biggest performance will be the Larry O’Brien recipient. It should be very fun to watch the two combatants go at it. The next opportunity to watch clean basketball will be on Wednesday night when the Nuggets and the Heat battle in Miami.
