During the postgame press conference after Game 2, Miami Heat head coach Erik Spoelstra responded strongly to a question posed by ESPN reporter Ramona Shelburne. Despite Denver Nuggets star Nikola Jokic had an impressive 41-point performance, the Heat managed to secure a 111-108 victory and level the NBA Finals series at 1-1.
2023-06-05
Nuggets head coach Michael Malone didn't hold back in his criticism of Denver's lackluster performance during their Game 2 loss against the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals. Malone expressed his disappointment with his team's effort, as the Heat outplayed the Nuggets, evened the championship series at 1-1, and delivered the first home loss for Denver in the 2023 NBA Playoffs.
