CHICAGO — Following the Nuggets’ shocking Saturday loss in Memphis, coach Michael Malone said he had not “been that angry after a game in a long time.” But Malone’s mood dramatically shifted Monday night in Miami. He repeatedly expressed how “proud” he was of his players’ effort, despite the Nuggets falling short in a highly entertaining, double-overtime scoring spree. Still, the coach has cautioned that Denver cannot let these losses snowball on its season-long seven-game road trip during which the Nuggets have absorbed two more blows to their slipping playoff hopes.
