No one was having more fun than Nuggets head coach Michael Malone during the team’s championship parade.
On Thursday afternoon, the Denver Nuggets held their championship parade in downtown Denver.
It didn’t take long for Malone to pop champagne bottles with fans.

An emotional Malone would later thank the fans who waited 47 years for a Nuggets championship.
“For me to share it with our fans that means the world to me, this an amazing experience, something that I believed in and I had no doubt that we could get to this point because of the people that I work with everyday”
“Life’s about moments and what we accomplished is 47 years in the making… I got a crazy idea man… Let’s do this s— again.”
"This is an amazing experience… Life's about moments… I got a crazy idea man… Let's do this sh*t again."
