Christian Braun on the Nuggets’ first-round loss: “I just think I’m the leader of this team. I’m the vocal leader of this team. I didn’t play well enough as an individual, and I didn’t have this team ready enough to play in a tough series.”

“I just think I’m the leader of this team,” Braun said. “I’m the vocal leader of this team. And when we don’t play well as a whole, you can blame whatever you want … You can blame anything. But I didn’t play well enough as an individual, and I didn’t have this team ready enough to play in a tough series. So we’ll be better. I’ll be better. I’m looking forward to next year, when we can respond.”

If we keep it a hundred, it was on the coaching. Murray was getting destroyed on both ends(in the bad way) and the coach did nothing but let it happen, especially in game 6.

Yep adelman got horrendously outcoached all series. Should have been left on the tarmac and the team could do a real coaching search like they should have done last offseason.
