Grow up, Nuggets.

Enough, already, of these kids.

Can’t we get some adults in here?

It’s about time, sometime in our lifetime, that the Nuggets win an NBA title, or a conference title, or finish first again in the division, or, ye gads, even get back to the postseason.

I’ve only been covering this franchise — Rockets/Nuggets — for 42 seasons, and I’m sort of tired of seasons with 33, 30, 36 and 17, 14, 11 victories.

Golden State and Cleveland are playing Sunday in the NBA Finals finale. Must be nice.

The Nuggets last played more than two months ago, with snow on the ground, and lost their seventh game in nine. Management and the coach had claimed they would be in the playoffs, just like the claims of last season and the year before.

Sounds like the Rockies, who keep giving us the old delirious and daft “Wait until next decade.’’

There’s a reason the Nuggets were the bottom of league attendance in 2015-16. I’m not the only fatigued follower.

So, wow-wee, the Nuggets have the seventh overall pick in the draft Thursday. They’ll probably end up with a guy you never heard of (Marquese Chriss) or a young underachiever (Jaylen Brown). You think one of those two will lead the Nuggets to an elite place in the West Conference? Think not.

The Friday column written by my esteemed colleague Mark Kiszla listed the four choices the Nuggets might steal.

I’ve got a fifth choice: Trade the pick for an accomplished star, and the Nuggets won’t have to wait another five years before they contend.

Instead, the Nuggets probably will keep their three precious first-round draft picks and feature a roster next season with seven players under the age of 22, and another two or three barely 25.

Maybe they’ll be invited by the NCAA to March Madness.

Samuel Beckett’s “Waiting for Godot” and the Nuggets are tragicomedies.

Denver has clutched five “world’’ championships in the four major major-league sports. Sure, they had outstanding youths, but the Avalanche won two because of the fortunate addition of goalie Patrick Roy. And the Broncos won three because they waited 15 years until John Elway was surrounded, mostly, by veterans. And the other title was with another old quarterback and a defense and an offense littered with old-timers, and one superstar linebacker selected No. 2 overall, not seventh.

Carmelo Anthony was a unique youngster, but he didn’t achieve anything until the Nuggets acquired veteran “Mr. Big Shot’’ Chauncey Billups. Still, they lost the West to the Lakers and superstar Kobe Bryant.

Do you really want a team in 2016-17 that starts four toddlers — Emmanuel Mudiay, Jusuf Nurkic, Gary Harris and the New Person — with Kenneth Faried or Danilo Gallinari, two players with ongoing potential? (Former coach Doug Moe always said: “Potential means you’re not any good now.’’)

Joffrey Lauvergne? Really? Will Barton? Pleasant fellow.

Have you gotten excited about any of those 17 potential draft picks the Nugs have paraded through Denver? Me, neither. Have you seen Ben Simmons or Brandon Ingram?

Nuggets’ general manager Tim Connelly basically is saying top draft picks and free agents aren’t interested in Denver. What’s wrong with Denver? I’ve lived in two other NBA cities, and I can tell you that Colorado is way up above New York and Memphis. Oakland? Philadelphia? Chicago? Give me a break. Miami, if you like heat. Los Angeles, if you’re Stan Kroenke or Jack Nicholson.

NFL draft picks and free agents appear to like living and playing in Denver. Perhaps it’s because of the city, and maybe it’s because the Broncos are winners. Peyton Manning and DeMarcus Ware, among many others, didn’t mind coming to Denver.

The Nuggets should take that seventh slot and trade it to the Sacramento Kings, with Gallinari and Faried, for DeMarcus Cousins, who had a special relationship with coach Michael Malone. The Kings want more? Throw in another first-round draft choice.

Or the Nuggets should trade all three first-round draft picks and high-energy Faried, or “oft-injured’’ Gallinari, to the Chicago Bulls for shooting guard Jimmy Butler. Or how about all three, and Faried, for Indiana’s Paul George.

Then, if the Nuggets obtain Cousins, Butler or George on or about the draft day, they can take a serious run at Kevin Durant. No way, the Nuggets, you say. Why not, I say.

If Durant likes Oklahoma City, he’ll love Denver. I was in Boulder on Jan. 6, 2007, when Durant, in his freshman (and only) season at Texas, played his first conference game against Colorado. He went for 37 points, and I wrote he would be an NBA superstar. He is.

The Nuggets need grown-ups. If they don’t shoot for the stars, they’ll always be left on Earth — with babies.
