Coach Talk

Nuk Nuk Jokes
You know what, Nuk Nuk Jokes, we do certainly admire the confidence. It's a bold move to deploy a player with zero points (DeVante Parker), while still earning the win. We just ask you to please keep that flashy, show-off type of stuff to the regular season. Do it in the postseason and we're toast.
