Earlier this season, now-former Nuggets Coach Brian Shaw said that he tried motivating his lackadaisical roster that seemed to quit on him repeatedly by rapping a pre-game scouting instruction.
On Saturday, Nuggets guard Ty Lawson posted a snippet of the rap on his Instagram.
I mean... it's silly, but it's not painful. Shaw did it as an attempt to bond with players he said he struggled to understand, a younger generation. (That same generation had no problem competing for the much older George Karl, but that's neither here nor there.) Unfortunately, it didn't turn the Nuggets around, as Shaw was fired just weeks later.
So... yeah. That's awkward.
