After losing Game 4 against the Los Angeles Lakers, coach Mike Malone said that the Nuggets will go through proper channels to ask about fouls.<\/p>\n
Per ESPN, “They went to the foul line 35 times,” Malone said after the Lakers took a 3-1 lead over Denver in the Western Conference finals with a 114-108 victory on Thursday in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. “I think I’m going to have to go through the proper channels like they did to see if we can figure out how we can get some more free throws.”<\/p>\n
Malone was referencing what Lakers coach Frank Vogel said on Wednesday when asked about James’ 10 total trips to the free throw line in the previous three games of the West finals. Vogel said the Lakers “were dealing with the fouls through the proper channels with the league.”<\/p>\n
“I just know they went 35 [times] and we went 23,” Malone said. “I think late in the game Jamal Murray attacked the basket a few times where it appeared to be contact. We’ll watch the film and send our clips in. We’ll reach out to the NBA and kind of make our points noted. Whether them going through the proper channels affected tonight or not, I have no idea. The NBA does a great job of listening. You hope that next game maybe some of those fouls are called.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
