After winning the most recent Coach of the Month award in the West, is a Coach of the Year award next for Denver Nuggets coach Michael Malone?
The Denver Nuggets have been looking strong heading towards the playoffs. With only a handful of games before the regular season concludes, Denver looks poised to have another deep playoff run in a contested and deep Western Conference. This leads many to show their support for Michael Malone as a Coach of the Year candidate.
Despite having a strong season last year, Malone has led the team to a 44-24 record thus far and home court advantage heading into round one of the playoffs.
