The Denver Nuggets made some big changes on Tuesday, firing general manager Calvin Booth and head coach Mike Malone who both just helped the franchise win its first title approximately 22 months ago. The coach and GM had been fighting behind the scenes for quite some time and the team hoped shaking things up like this could push the team to another championship.
Reactions have been pouring in over the news, but as usual Boston Celtics coach Joe Mazzulla had the most unique, thoughtful and fairly dark take on the matter. Speaking with the press before his team's game against the New York Knicks, Mazzulla said Malone's firing made him consider his own mortality.
