Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic is playing amazing basketball, but that's no excuse for what happened Sunday night in Phoenix.
Denver Nuggets coach Michael Malone bothered by Nikola Jokic technical foulRegardless of what Suns team owner Mat Ishbia says, the NBA has to suspend Nikola Jokic after the scrum in Game 4 of the Suns-Nuggets second-round playoff series.
He had a triple-double with 30 points, 17 rebounds and 17 assists in Game 3?! And he followed that up with a 53-point game with 11 assists in Game 4?! Again, I don’t want to see this. It was a big game, and emotions were high on all sides. Frankly, as sports fights go, this wasn’t much more than having some fun with the boys.
And the Suns lost a shot at a title after players were suspended for leaving the bench during an intense moment with the San Antonio Spurs in 2007.Again, I don’t want to see Jokic miss a game. It was a relatively minor thing. It looked like Jokic went to get the ball after it went into the crowd, and Suns fans didn’t give it to him as fast as he would have liked.
