I mean, is Adelman doing anything different than Malone currently? Is he playing Braun more? certainly not calling for MM to get fired here, just curious.

In any event this is as good a stretch of Nuggets basketball as I can remember.
No. I think Adelman is a great coach and the players obviously respect him but he is just stepping up when he is needed.

Adelman is following Malone's playbook and rotations but the difference is Jamal Murray feeling right, role players have all found there spots (maybe not MPJ, he needs to be better).

Malone started using Cancar and Nnaji for back up center and powerforward. Brown, Braun, and KCP are great perimeter D players and all of them make their wide open looks on offense.

Colinsworth is by far the worst commentator in the NFL. I didn't even watch most of the game, but I bet he brought up Brady at least 4 times.
I don't think he brought up Brady at all. He was busy speaking about the greatness of Mahomes for most the game. The duo that announced that game annoys the CRAP out of me. They always ruin the game with their routine.

Maybe we should have taken Brock Purdy in the 7th round and rolled with him lol.
I know it's a joke but it goes to show how truly bad Russ was this year. And how bad Hackett was this year.

3rd string 7th round pick, no experience. Comes in and plays competent to solid football. We paid 250M to an aging player who can't make simple reads. Makes you wonder.

Not sure why Paton wasn't fired for this debacle. He picked the coach and gave the extension, now we are f***ed. Doesn't matter who comes in to coach.

nah it does matter who the coach is - because if Kyle can get that mileage out of a Mr. Irrelevant, then someone should be able to coax Russ into getting into the red zone 4-5 times a game. Look also at what Daboll has done with Daniel Jones this year. We just need a capable coach / offensive mind on this staff at the OC or HC level.

I am starting to think it's super weird that we are going into the AFC/NFC championships and yet the Broncos aren't going to interview any of these offensive assistants on the advancing teams. Nobody appears to want to interview Shane Steichen or Brian Callahan? We interviewed DeMeco Ryans but he doesn't seem like a serious candidate...usually people are salivating at stealing successful team coordinators and we're just going to the same people that we know and are buddies with....that hasn''t worked for the last 10 years...... Just kind of weird. Seems like we are definitely destined to go with a combo of Sean Payton, OC David Shaw, and DC Vic Fangio...........And if we can't get Payton then it's Shaw as HC and Evero as DC; not sure who the OC is in that case.

Purdy can read the field, Russ showed this year he can't. You can't coach a player into reading the defense properly or finding the open read. You either can do it or you can't. Russ can't. It's first read or panic and shuffle around and most likely get sacked for Russ.

As for coaches it will be Payton. And it's not going to work and we'll cough up another 1st round pick or 2 on top of it. Brees was one of the best and reading the defense and finding the weak spots. Russ can't do this. It's not hard to look good when you have one of the best in the business in Brees making plays all over place.
