Malone praised Alexander s MVP and caused controversy! He spoke continuously and hurt the Nuggets and was implicitly ridiculed and resented Denver

On May 22, the NBA playoffs continued. After the Thunder defeated the Timberwolves and won the G1 of the Western Conference Finals yesterday, former Nuggets coach and current ESPN commentator Mike Malone praised Alexander for causing controversy, and many media believed that he was resentful of the Nuggets.

In yesterday's game, the Thunder star Alexander played for 37 minutes and 42 seconds, made 10 of 27 shots, 0 of 4 three-pointers, 11 of 14 free throws, scoring 31 points, 5 rebounds, 9 assists and 3 steals (20 points in the second half). Former Nuggets coach Mike Malone is now involved in the Western Conference Finals commentary report on ESPN. When talking about Alexander's performance after the game, Malone said: "Alexander proves why he is an MVP."

In response, Lakers media LakeShowYo commented: "Malone just said that Alexander is an MVP, and he now resents the Nuggets and Jokic."

The famous reporter Tim Reynolds wrote: "Mike Malone said in his evaluation of Jokic on March (11th) that based on his data this season, he will choose 10 regular season MVPs, and these 10 times will be his wins. If you don't think so, then you are talking nonsense. Today, Mike Malone said when talking about Alexander: He proved why he is an MVP. I really don't know what changes have happened during this period."

At the end of the regular season, Malone was fired by the Nuggets, and acting coach Adelman Jr. led the team to end the regular season with three consecutive victories. In the playoffs, he eliminated the Clippers in the tiebreak and lost to the Thunder in the second round of tiebreak. After the divisional semi-finals, Malone was invited to participate in the ESPN program to analyze the Western Conference Finals!

It is worth mentioning that Malone's heart-wrenching Nuggets' remarks are not only praising Alexander. He also praised the Thunder and said, "The Thunder won the tiebreaker (beating the Nuggets) in front of the best NBA fans." In response, the Denver Post sent a picture of the Nuggets mascot hanging and wrote, "Maron said the Thunder won the tiebreaker in front of the best NBA fans."
