Nikola Jokic fires back after Michael Malone calls Nuggets a bunch of quitters

The Denver Nuggets fell hard to the Phoenix Suns in Game 2, losing by a lopsided 25 points, 98-123. Safe to say their head coach Michael Malone was not a happy camper. The Nuggets coach blasted his squad for quitting on the game. After Nikola Jokic scored the first two points of the contest to put Denver up 2-0, they trailed Phoenix the rest of the way. A 10-point halftime deficit quickly ballooned as Game 2 turned into a blowout early into the second half. The Nuggets fell behind by as much as 31 points in the fourth quarter.
