special interview Jokic gave Serbian TV: www.youtube.com/watch?v=S2oj7Yct8jQ&ab_channel=ArenaSportTVIts in Serbian, and there is no subs, but I can give you one, maybe important sentence. "I didn't celebrate, cause when you celebrate, I feel you will lose focus and relax, and I can't lose focus. Maybe, one day, when I retire, I will look behind and realize what we have done." In other words, job is not finished, this man has more title runs in him

one more Facu/Barton/Rivers/JMyke season and he would've considered it.
watching Jokic carry bums all season and fall apart in the playoffs due to exhaustion was almost as depressing as the Shawful years. it was hard to see the light at the end of that tunnel.

Not going to do the media thing of psychoanalyzing a guy based on a few quotes at an emotional moment in his non-primary language - but, allow me to dabble.
This "family" culture this team has is no joke. It's why Bruce is looking for an excuse to stay against all capitalistic sensibilities (if he doesn't, he's still a Nugget for Life). It's why DeAndre Jordan replaced Demarcus Cousins even though basketball-wise it seemed puzzling. It's why Bones was shipped out for a bag of rocks in a trade that definitely wasn't a trade machine winner.
Joker is a family guy above anything else. And as long as the Nuggets and the Kroenkes keep investing in that culture here, this will be a beautiful thing.
Enjoy the ride.

What Game said. Up to this point, I thought the best team chemistries I've ever seen were either Cowboys 93, Broncos 97, Warriors 2015, Seahawks 2013, a few others sprinkled in between - But the chemistry on this current Nuggets team is well above all of those teams (and I felt that way at the beginning of the year, but I didn't want to state such a thing and jinx it). The parade festivities have also beyond impressed me. Over a million fans showed up? I've never seen a parade, or post-party festivities, that involved players walking up and down the streets (both daytime and night, lol) and directly interacting with the fans. Up to this point, the only parade that truly rivaled that was when the LA Kings did a stanley cup parade through the beach cities LA (most of the players lived in between Hermosa and Manhattan Beach, which is what motivated it) - youtube: www.youtube.com/results?search_query=la+kings+beach+paradeI also recall Jokic, upon being interviewed after the game, saying that the relationships on this team are ones that will last even after retirement - I've never heard an athlete say that. After what I've seen, I think Denver truly is a basketball town, there was a sleeping-giant of Nuggets fans, this is the best team chemistry I've ever witnessed, and this is the best chemistry I've ever witnessed between a team and its fans. Yes - major credit to Raptor fans and Kings fans, but I've never seen a team so lovingly interact with their fans, with continual reciprocation. Really looking forward to this dynasty window. This really is making up for the years of nugglyfe suffering - and in a weird way, despite having to wait so long, I'm glad it was THIS core that won the first crown and is bringing in more.

finally, a face to the suffering. I'm glad you're enjoying the moment brother. It’s been amazing. Can’t wait for next season And summer league. I'm very curious how pessimistic fans like me and you react next year. Like...I swear I am content and happy with 1 Championship. I wanted one in my lifetime. It was so special. But...are me and rock flipping out after a November loss against the Rockets next season? Time will tell I guess lol

The Nuggets actually have it, and it's something to be cherished. Truthfully family and culture are things families often have, but a bad apple can damage it, sometimes beyond repair. Appreciate what we have and hope it can continue.

I’m pretty sure I’ll be flipping out like you said (I just want them to win every game) but overall everything feels different. This title is so huge. Many times a day I still catch myself thinking “man it would be so cool to win…wait we did. Its real. We won it all!” And goosebumps
