Breaking a fourth quarter huddle in a losing effort to the Utah Jazz last Friday, the Denver Nuggets came together and chanted, “1-2-3…six weeks!” As in six weeks until the end of the season. The Nuggets are having a terrible season and are the third-worst team in the West; losers of 19 out of their last 21 games and still more than a month away from the reprieve of the off-season. To top it all off, in came this nugget of information suggesting coach Brian Shaw wasn’t getting on with his players.

Shaw was subsequently fired, bringing his brief two-year tenure as the Nuggets coach to a close. But we’ve heard Denver’s a pretty chill town. Maybe he’ll want to hang around for a bit. If he does, may we suggest a few of the following activities?
Finally figure out all this Millennial stuff
Maybe Ty Lawson will finally tell you what “bae” means. Or “fleek”? There’s a lot of catching up to do.
Participate in the local economy
Do donuts in parking lots with JaVale McGee
JaVale McGee was part of the trade deadline fire sale and wound up in Philadelphia briefly before getting waived. Just don’t let him drive, Brian.
Hangout with John Fox
Another deposed Denver area coach probably just hanging around. You should send a bunch of pizza’s to your old bosses, guys. That would be hilarious!
Open a Papa Johns
Just don’t expect health insurance.
Try to find Aliens in Colorado
