Dissecting Why Malone Was Fired and Gearing Up for a Wild End to the Regular Season

Verno and Jacoby discuss the scorching-hot Timberwolves, who beat the Grizzlies last night 141-125 after scoring a league season-high 52 points in the third quarter and 44 points from Anthony Edwards (01:08). They also discuss the goofiness around Ja Morant’s new celebration. Next, they detail why they think the Nuggets cleaned house and fired head coach Michael Malone and GM Calvin Booth (18:42). Are the Nuggets the biggest wild card in the playoffs now? The guys then discuss why last night's Knicks-Pistons game wasn’t as important and will likely be the same as tonight’s Lakers-Rockets matchup, Pacers clinching home-court advantage, and why the Clippers could be the scariest team in the first round (42:15). Lastly, the guys discuss Luka Doncic’s epic return to Dallas and debate if Nico Harrison can leave any kind of legacy that doesn’t include trading away Luka (57:36).
