Michael Malone has a new job as he'll work on the NBA Countdown pregame and halftime studio show for the Western Conference Finals.

The scars of the Denver Nuggets' season aren't just the fresh ones from the clobbering they endured in Game 7 at Oklahoma City but the short bench they dragged through the playoffs courtesy of Calvin Booth and Michael Malone.

After months of closed-door discussions, the Denver Nuggets ownership group, led by Josh Kroenke, decided to part ways with head coach Michael Malone and general manager Calvin Booth.

The Denver Nuggets do their part in backing interim head coach David Adelman following Game 7 loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder.

The Nuggets have identified by their continuity for years. As their season ended in Oklahoma City, it was with the understanding that times might be changing.

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon is a game-time decision for the team’s Game 7 matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a hamstring injury suffered in Game 6, head coach David Adelman told reporters.

Well, the Nuggets not only won a Game 7 against a very deep and potent Clippers team, they also took the 68-win Oklahoma City Thunder to seven games in the second round, proving once and for all that we're all winging it in every walk of life, and perhaps a coaching change 79 games into the regular season actually made some semblance of sense.

Forward Aaron Gordon strongly endorsed David Adelman to remain the Nuggets' head coach after Game 7 on Sunday.
