Still cannot believe this is real.
Starting a thread so that we can always go back to this. History has been made. First one ever. Satisfied forever.
Some of my favorites so far:

This is still real life right? We haven't slipped into the Matrix?

How fitting that Malone preaches defense all year, annoys the hell out of his fans with defense, and defense is what closed out this series for a championship. Malone 200 IQ.

Yes we did !!!!! As the longest-time Nuggets fan on this site, I can honestly say I never thought I would see this day. Sure, the team and players (and coach) are great, but Nugglyfe was too strong. Something would happen.
But...WE DID IT !!!!!!!

Wemby going to Spurs was definitely rigged by the NBA, as was LeBron to Cleveland and Derrick Rose to Chicago ...rigged, corrupt sport

On a positive note, I will be watching the parade on Thursday (either live or taped)
================================================================
Some celebrations from last night:

The least excited person in all this about last night’s win seems to be Jokic himself. When asked how he felt about it by Lisa Saunders immediately after game, he said, “It’s good, it’s good”, matter-of-factly. Then said “We got the job done, and can go home”. Wasn’t exactly doing backflips. In the presser, he repeated that he can go home now, and when told parade is on Thursday, said “No. I want to go home”. He also said in his initial presser remarks that he has many interests besides basketball.
I got vibes that Jokic doesn’t get the same enjoyment we all get from this chip. In the presser, he also said something about not enjoying the job, though that was clearly not fully serious. I think there’s an element of truth that Jokic looks at playing for Nuggets as a job, and he now looks more forward to going home than seeing all his fans at the parade and rally.
Appreciate Jokic while he’s here. I get the feeling he will retire after his supermax contract expires. Won’t play until 40 or even late 30’s, unless his brothers put the pressure on him to keep going!

the Nuggets won the championship after Murray broke the Lakers spirit in the 2H of game two and the 1H of game three. if I knew it, Jokic sure as hell knew it. so he had plenty of time to process being a champion.
Jokic has a singular interest outside of basketball and those are his beloved horses. if Denver had more Texan-style weather that suited the temperament of the equine mammal, he would have just transplanted them to Denver and lived in the MHC year-round. he wants to go home to them and this run cuts into his horse time and so I don't blame him for being impatient.

The NBA didn't Tweet out a graphic for poor Zeke Nnaji.
