The main story of this week for the Nuggets is how they were taken advantage by official, Rodney Mott.
In the loss against the Los Angeles Lakers, the biggest story was the double ejection which saw Nuggets’ head coach, Michael Malone and Nikola Jokic get ejected.

Now, it made sense why official, Rodney Mott threw out Malone considering he made contact with the official, but what made no sense was also throwing out Jokic. Jokic only wanted an explanation on why there was not a foul called on him when he was pushed down to the floor by Lakers forward, Kyle Kuzma.
Jokic had every right to complain as Mott did a terrible job and screwed the Nuggets over all night. I had no problem with Malone getting as fired up as he did considering Mott is the most incompetent ref the NBA possesses right now.
As a matter of fact, one might as well call Mott a Lakers fan disguised as a ref for how horrible he truly is. Jokic and Malone proved why he no longer deserves a job in the NBA and if commissioner, Adam Silver, truly cares about the integrity of the NBA, he will fire Rodney Mott and keep this imbecile away from the league for good.
Mott ruined the Lakers Nuggets game and the league should not risk him affecting the outcome of any other game and get rid of this so called official as soon as possible. If the completely idiotic and asinine call on Nikola Jokic from the other night does not convince you Mott has the basketball IQ of a fly, then I don’t know what will convince you.
Next: No Malone, no Millsap, no Chandler, no problem for Nuggets
Rodney Mott gave the Nuggets no chance of a comeback and for that, he should be fired and banned from the NBA for life.
