Michael Malone Press Conference after Denver Nuggets 104-97 LOSS against Kevin Durant, Devin Booker, and the Phoenix Suns. In the post-game press conference following the Denver Nuggets' 104-97 loss to the Phoenix Suns, Coach Michael Malone took responsibility for the defeat, emphasizing the team's struggles with offensive rebounding and three-point defense. He pointed out the Nuggets' poor ranking in second-chance points allowed and their inability to convert opportunities, particularly in transition and from beyond the arc, where they shot 10 of 40. Despite these issues, Malone praised the improved defensive effort in the second half and stressed the importance of making shots, acknowledging the Suns' strategic focus on limiting Denver's inside game and forcing them to shoot threes. He concluded by reflecting on the team's effort and the need to learn from the loss in preparation for their next game.
